Squirrel!

No crisis is so serious that the Obama administration can't try to blame George W. Bush.

Really?

Sr admin official, on whether Putin is heeding US "We in this administration have not made it a practice to look into Vladimir Putin's soul"

Squirrel! Bush! Who knew Bush messed this up, too?

Yet by the end of the Bush administration, Obama people were complaining that the Bush administration had wrecked US-Russian relations; at the start of the Obama administration Hillary Clinton delivered a "reset" (with a bad Russian translation) button to the Russians to symbolize a new, positive relationship with Russia; and in 2012, the Obama administration mocked Romney's description of Russia as a geopolitical threat.

These people shouldn't be trusted with managing our relations with Belgium let alone geopolitical foes.

Hey, anybody in the Obama administration want to ask Bill or Hillary Clinton about the 1994 Budapest Memorandum that commits America to non-nuclear Ukraine's territorial integrity?

Oh, and I guess the senior administration official never got around to answering the question about whether Putin is heeding us.

But we know that answer.
