Here's one thing that cannot be disputed... Two weeks ago before Obama attended the summit in Russia and had a private little talk with Putin nothing was happening that could be construed as positive...

No one here knows what Obama told Putin but what ever it was worked... In less than a week Putin and Assad were playing nice...

No shots fired... No boxes filled with dead Americans at Dover Air Force Base...

Obama get's some credit here, Obama haters... No war... No trillion$$$ run thru the shredder... No Americans shot at...

Thems is the facts, people... You may like war instead of diplomacy and maybe some back room hoodwinking by a clever Obama on Putin but I'll take Obama's approach over the Bush/Cheney/Wolfowitz/Pearle/Rice model any day of the week...
