It seems that the prez is announcing the sanctions and whatever else they decided to throw at Russia for their part in the Ukrainian situation…….Russia has retaliated……..

Russia got Crimea, but the US seems to have the edge in the sanctions department for now. After President Obama ramped up economic penalties against 20 prominent Russians (but not Vladimir Putin), Moscow fired back by telling nine American officials (but not Obama) that they weren’t welcome in Russia, reports the Hill. The biggest names on the no-visa list are John Boehner, Harry Reid, and John McCain. The other six are Deputy National Security Adviser for International Economics Caroline Atkinson, senior White House adviser Daniel Pfeiffer, Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes, and Sens. Robert Menendez, Mary Landrieu, and Dan Coats. Boehner, for one, sounds pretty happy about it. “Proud to be included on a list of those willing to stand against Putin’s aggression,” he tweeted.

I like it!  Is there any way we can extend this to include the rest of Congress?  That would cut down on the amount of free trips those toads get to take in the name of “fact finding”……a little further extension…..can we find away to keep these loafers away from the people they are failing to represent?

Just a thought.
