Here’s some good news:

Russia was ready to put nuclear forces on alert over Crimea, Putin says

Couple this with Putins recent vanishing act, and ya really gotta wonder what the hell’s going on over there. It’s getting harder and harder to *not* see Putin as an old-school Bond villain. Well, at least maybe the nuclear winter will counter the global warming. Glad to know we have such spectacular leadership in the US government these days to stand up to these shenanigans and rally the nation in a potential time of crisis.
