    This proves liberals learned nothing in the years Obama spent in Syria.
    We didn't ignore Russia under Obama. Instead, we initiated one-sided giveaways, and considered that mutual negotiations. Russia took our generosity for granted, and did whatever it wanted to do. Obama never seemed to realize his Russian diplomacy was failing until it bit him in the lead-up to the election. Then he flipped-out, and his posturing was all too-little, too-late.

    Obama practiced benign neglect towards Russia. Mocking Putin's "bad boy slouching" posture he exhibited towards Obama.
    Putin ran wild playing any gambit or filling any vacancy that would pay off.

    And Chuck.....China was caught red handed hacking into voting machines....did you not enjoy asking the Obama Administration what they were going to do about it for 8 years....leading up to this Russian accusation? Obama did nothing to improve the system...but voiced concern that the system was to tuff on requiring silly things like ID...which made it more difficult for Americans....as it was racist to attempt to make the system more secure.

    That about sum it up Chuck? Its Trump's fault because he was working in Hollywood....over the past 8 years when the system was actually compromised by Russia and other foreign entities. Obama gets a free ride over things that was ALLOWED to happen under his watch?

    Incorrect. Invading Iraq gave us the situation we are in, in Syria. Notwithstanding anything you heard Kelly Ann Conway say.

    I think this best exemplifies the stance towards Russia and China. Get the stuff you can agree on done quickly then figure out the rest later on.
    Even though Tillerson employs the same methods the entire trump cabinet employs.....keep repeating the same talking point, and refuse to address the elephant in the room... it's highly effective with the base.

    There is a modicum of validity to Tillerson's comments, so long as any trade/business deals are contingent upon penalties for the continuing cyber activities. Tillerson isn't the right person to have anything to do with Russia. His priorities lie with Exxon/Mobil...not the U.S. citizens.

    Really? Manafort took millions from Russia in exchange for installing a Putin puppet in Ukraine. Now he's a Russian operative with ties to the W.H.

    What would you have done after Manafort opened to door for a Russian invasion of Ukraine? Send an 'armada' to Russia?

    Giving Tillerson this position was just another arrogant slap in the face of all Americans.
    Why does anatta hate America?
    It is the responsibility of every American citizen to own a modern military rifle.

    Tillerson admits 17 agencies agree about Russian interference.
    Why does anatta lie and claim it was only three?
    Why does anatta hate honesty?

    I don't think Anatta hates America per se. He hates Hillary, which is ironic, because he voted for her in the primaries in '08. He argued her merits as vehemently as he argues Putin's now.

    I think the stress just put him over the edge, and he's been reduced to babbling and shrieking 'It's Hillary's fault' in every discussion.

    Kill Manafort.

    He watches Fox News. It's more painful for those of us who read his posts 14 years ago. You wouldn't recognize him.

    Yeah, I'd say anatta's credibility is fairly limited...
