Not like the Coyote vs. the Roadrunner; at least the coyote was in the fight.
Russia rejects criticism of fly-by near US Navy destroyer . . . " Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov, spokesman for the Russian defense ministry, said Thursday that the pilots of Russian Su-24 jets saw the ship and turned back "while using all measures of precaution." Konashenkov said he was baffled by what he described as the "distressed reaction of our American counterparts.' "
Since last year, the Russian press has spoken of Obama's disrespect for Putin.
"All of this is due to Obama’s weak, pathetic foreign policy."
Putin’s Gun vs. Obama’s Pen . . . "Putin is so confident in President Obama’s weakness that he gambles with the lives of U.S. military personnel without fear." . . .

We’ve come . . . 180 degrees from 2008, when President Bush deterred Russian escalation in Georgia by parking U.S. military transport planes at Tbilisi airport. Eight years later, as Putin continues to double down against Obama’s anti-realism, our adversaries, from Europe to Asia, are sensing the vacuum. We must face Putin down. This weekend, President Obama should suspend U.S. participation in the Geneva talks and immediately provide — rather than have aides anonymously discuss the possibility of providing — advanced weapons to rebels aligned with the Free Syrian Army. Doing so would confront Putin at his own game, and make it clear the U.S. understands that power is vested in action, not in words.
