First, There's Tough Talk from Sam!

"Russia has armed, equipped, and now joined illegal separatists fighting in Ukraine. Serious negotiations are needed, urgently needed. But Russia has to stop lying and has to stop fueling this conflict." Ambassador to the UN Samantha Powers denouncing Russia before a UN Security Council on Ukraine

Then FECKLESS talk from Obama one hour later.

"As a result of the actions Russia has already taken and the major sanctions we've imposed with our European and international partners, Russia is already more isolated than at any time since the end of the Cold War. "...But, ultimately, I think what's important to recognize is the degree to which Russian decision-making is isolating Russia. You know, they're doing this to themselves."

And then, Obama on ISIL.

" ...in some of the media reports, the suggestion seems to have been that, you know, we're about to go full scale on an elaborate strategy for defeating ISIL. And the suggestion, I guess, has been that we'll start moving forward imminently, and somehow Congress, still out of town, is gonna be left in the dark.

That's not what's gonna happen. We are gonna continue to focus on protecting the American people. We're gonna continue, where we can, to engage in the sort of humanitarian acts that saved so many folks who were trapped on a mountain."
