Chess champion Garry Kasparov has been a vocal critic of President Obama’s handling of the Ukraine crisis, and the pivot back to Obamacare and health insurance hasn’t inspired his confidence.
Jokes aside, real concern is Putin will keep Crimea without a fight so Obama can say it's a victory he didn't also invade eastern Ukraine.

@Kasparov63 Why the gratuitous dig?

Not gratuitous. White House has shifted to health care news while Ukraine is in the balance. RT @stillgrading37: Why the gratuitous dig?

The media have been happy to help on that front.
@Kasparov63 @blakehounshell is that really an awful result at this point?

.@Sharpe222 @blakehounshell That people are even asking that says a lot, none of it good. A new world order without borders is awful, yes.

Negotiating someone else's territory has a long & infamous history. Putin is trying it with Crimea, shame if EU & US go along.
