Is Obama weak according to Conservatives because he isn't sending military power to Ukraine to fight Russia?

Obama must send troops into Ukraine or double our military budget right, so he can to become the next Reagan?

    It's none of our business to send military in Ukraine... It's only between the EU, Ukraine and Russia...

    He is weak because he publicly flip flops his agenda. Remember the "red line" with Syria? Yeah, didn't turn out to really be a red line. Remember Obama talking about repercussions with Russia over Ukraine? Yeah, none of those have happened and now the 1B in aid we told Ukraine we were going to give them (through his administration) is now in limbo.

    Not to mention saying we'd give support to rebels in Syria, then not doing it after he failed to come through on his promise of strikes if chemical weapons were used. Also the same in Lybia. And he looked weak on Egypt too.

    No one wants to see the military go over there. Just because George Bush started a war doesn't mean that all Republicans always want to start wars! That isn't the basis of the party. But I do think that Republicans want strong leaders who at least follow their convictions and don't trip over their own feet (agenda) in public.

    No one in their right mind wants to see a conflict with Russia over

    the Ukraine. Best way to fight the Russians over this issue, Is make

    Oil cheaper and available through the US. Impose every critical

    economic sanction one can apply to the Russians. Freeze their

    assets around the EU, And the US and Canada.

    Do not under any circumstance wag the dog. I repeat under no

    circumstance.

    No. Doing that would be a mistake for everyone concerned. The EU and US are committed to protecting Ukraine but not militarily at this point. Hopefully not at any point.

    Some on the right will say he is weak because he has drawn a red line and has no fortitude to defend his position.

    It's not up to him to send military there. And he is a great president as he follows the rules unlike Bush who invaded Iraqi on a wim with Tony Blair tagging along behind.

    This is just another example of many that he is week, and under qualified for the position. He keep drawing pink lines in the sand that everyone thinks is a joke.

    They would say he is week if he stays out, and a war monger if he goes in. That is why it is called the opposition. They will find opposition to whatever stance an opposing political leader takes.
