Seems pretty clear to me. Weak American president. Exhausted military that's stretched too thin. Gutless congress. An American public that has a short attention span and no backbone.
It's a prefect scenario for Russia to pounce.

This won't be reported in the MSM. They don't want Obama to look like the weak, feckless fuck that he is.

Yeah, things worked so much better back in the good old "wanted dead or alive" days. Nobody pays attention to a POTUS that just quietly goes about killing our enemies, the bluster, brag, and threaten dealie is what makes a President tough.

What does an "exhausted military/stretched thin' have to do with it?

So you're saying that Russia made the threat because they see Obama as a strong president?

It means that since our forces are strecthed too thin and weak, any response would be delayed and lacking.

Ah, a well thought out and measured response on this here thread! Congrats!
Since when did the Rooshins ever stop threatening and spouting off at everybody in the world, and when did we stop doing the same? Oh yeah, when G.W. (The War President) Bush left office.
So, we would be better off according to the almighty militaristic conks posting here, with loud mouth Bush going around flapping his gums in the wind, landing on aircraft carriers and declaring victory before the first quarter.
Right....

Right....

Obama, the Newest War President, on the world's stage, openly called for the removal of Qadaffi (and other leaders, but not his Middle East oil friends) and then, after threatening him, attacked a foreign country that had not attacked us...under the guise of helping people who are being repressed by their government). Furthermore, Obama publicly announced his plan to increased our troops (but didn't publicly announce the increase in their deaths) in Afghanistan, declared openly to the world that he would not honor other countries borders and then proceeded to authorize FAR more drone attacks on sovereign countries than Bush (and those Liberals who opposed his methods...which was just about every Liberal) ever did. After PUBLICLY gushing that he got Bin Laden, which he and other Liberals said was our mission, he continues some hazy mission in which the only tangible result seems to be to get more of our troops killed while publicly making treaties with some of the worst human rights offenders on the planet.
Yup, we still have a loud mouthed cowboy in the Oval Office. Nothing has changed, except some people's excuses for supporting such actions.

You really think a response would involve "forces"?

There won't BE a response, other than Obama's "flexibility" to do things if he gets reelected.

Really? The broke-dick Russian army blasts a NATO missile pad and we just do nothing?
OK, Z.

Fucking Russians. Just bluster. They wussed out in Cuba in October '62, and they'll wuss out again.
I blame Vidav.
