Putin wants to put Humpty-Dumpty back together again ... he is using natural resources to do it.
Putin is evil.
Meanwhile, back in DC, let's build another wind mill ...

Given Der Fuhrer's love for Russia, one wonders if he would even respond and order a retaliatory missile strike if NORAD was to detect a incoming group of Russian missiles? I would bet that if he was safe he would just kiss-off the rest of the country. I wonder if there is any emergency plan to act if the Perambulating Turd fails to respond to an attack on this country.

Dear KNRS and CLEARCHANNEL; “BRING BACK BOB LONSBERRY” We here in Salt Lake City listening audience miss hearing the daily Bob Lonsberry show, also the Sunday morning show... Agree with him or not, he is very thought provoking and unique compared to the regular hum-drum morning shows on radio or TV. I know I speak for hundreds if not thousands of fans in Utah when I say BRING BACK BOB LONSBERRY to either station 105.7 or 570 any hour. However we do like to wake up to his show in the mornings; 4 a.m. is not too early for us. He sets a perfect pace and balance for the listening day. I like that he has a variety of topics, not the same old “speech” day after day. We like Glenn Beck okay enough, BUT right now you have him on over kill. We need Bob Lonsberry back in the Utah listening network. I know all my family, friends and numerous fans will thank you. BRING BACK BOB LONSBERRY TO SALT LAKE CITY PROGRAMING

Right on Bob!!!!
But, with the current weakling, butt-kissing, can't-we-all-just-be-friends, slugs we have allowed to take over our country, it ain't going to happen.
After we vote out these cowards, maybe we can get a crew in who don't see our world leadership as based on having everyone like the U.S. They will see it as making sure everyone has a healthy fear of the consequences of screwing with us.

Bob, we want you to know that we here in Salt Lake City are pulling for you. Every day we send another “Bring Back Bob” to KNRS Radio Station. We will do this until you are back at KNRS 105.7 OR KACP 570 or another local station such as (K-TALK) KTKK 630, KLO 1430 OR KSL. We see that Wall Street Journal is on both clear channel stations 105.7 and 570 (4 a.m. in SL). You should have one of those slots.

"We need to return to a foreign policy of quiet strength, where we walk softly and carry a big stick. We need to return to a foreign policy of America first and America always. We need to stop apologizing, stop bowing and scraping, and stop kissing the hind ends of peoples, potentates and preachers who want to slit our children’s throats." I couldn't have said it better myself.

Hey Bob, President Obama doesn't have the experience to stand up to the Russians. He is only good spouting rhetoric in front of a teleprompter. He will go down in history as "The great Reader".
# 11. 7/9/10 6:26 AM by rjd
"We gave them freedom and they gave us organized crime." Really? OK, I'm not sure why you have such a bug up your rear end about Russia but we did not give them anything, you dont give someone freedom as we are finding out in Iraq and Afganistan. We are having a hell of a time hanging on to what little freedom we have left in this country let alone "giving" someone else freedom. They gave us organized crime? Really? there was no organized crime in this country before Russia?, wow I did not know that. I could give two craps for whats going on in Russia, we have our own problems.

Umm...American is turning evil and weak. Let's see, we have a huge part of our population that voted for Obama. Not because he had any substance, but because of his symbolism.
We have far too many citizens in our country who are far too content to take hand outs vs. work and earn their own way.
We have far too many citizens in our country who in the name of free speech will desecrate our flag, religious relics, and believe child porn should be protected.
We have fellow citizens who voted in a government that has now taken over the auto industry and has it's sights set on health care. Heaven help us when it's talons are full embedded into Wall Street. It turns a blind eye to illegal immigration, regardless of the cost, and then thumbs its nose when law abiding citizens are hurt by these illegals.
Obama is being Obama. Stop blaming him. LOOK AT YOUR FELLOW CITIZENS. THOSE WHO VOTED THESE CREEPS IN AND KEEP VOTING THEM IN ARE THE ONES TO BLAME!!!!!!!!
Sadly the evil and weak are over taking our country. Those of us who want to be the awesome nation it once was are sitting back and letting it happen.

Russia is a nation competing with us for survival and dominance. Nothing new there. However, what is new is that our current President who seems to think he will charm them into happy land replete with rainbows and unicorns farting skittles.
Barry Obama is the enabler to Putin, Ahmadinnerjacket, Jong il, Chavez, and anyone else even slightly considering picking a fight with us. And why not - he's alienating our traditional allies and not standing up for American values from the bully pulpit of the White House.
Barry will not even defend our own borders. Just last month Uncle Barry closed off American access to 3500 acreas of a National Wildlife Refuge in AZ because of violence associated with Mexican gangs. Instead of fighting off these thugs, this administration puts up signs and walks away? Suppose parts of Letchworth State park were closed off due to this reason - would YOU find that acceptable?
I'm actually more worried about the damage caused to our country by Barack Obama than of other nations.
# 24. 7/9/10 8:57 AM by The Real Problem
It's time for real Americans to collectively put their finger in Obama's chest and let him know how we feel about his reign so far. I fear waiting for the next election may be too late.
# 25. 7/9/10 8:59 AM
This column is why you can't make it as a writer. It will make you a successful used car salesman.
Your beloved big business seeking super cheap labor is who sold American workers down the crapper. In fact, liberals have been protesting this since it began and you conservatives have been cheering on big business.
This column is just another lame ass conservative harangue that liberals are wussies and conservatives are big, tough badasses that will save America every time.
Ronald Reagan was the King of kiss asses. He couldn't stop helping the rich and corporate America. He is the nut who threw out fairness on the American airways with the laughable excuse that free speech comes before fairness. It led to Rush Limbaugh. a snarling hound from hell, being the Ayatollah of one of Americas leading political parties.
If America knew who exactly the conservative GOP really is we'd have burnings at the stake again.
You are an awful breed. You will destroy this free land with claptrap like you wrote today. Every damned thing you said about Russia can be said about America times 5. We just hide behind the building democracy scam to pull all that crap on other countries.
Stop scaring Americans---no one is invading us and is not going to. The world is too populated now for all your ancient stories of conquest. Countries do conquest now with "progress", the very thing you conservatives abhor.

Rick C., loved your comment about re-instituting the draft.
Politics aside, how quickly would we be out of Iraq and Afghanistan if we still had it?
The all-volunteer military makes it too easy for us to ignore the wars, and the lost lives and billions they continue to result in.
I wonder if any politician would ever have the cojones to suggest that we bring back the draft....

I'm sure you as well as a good majority of your readers would agree with this comment.
But, the comment says that we are the world's leader and that nobody better DARE try to challenge us in any way or we will slap them down and that will show all the other "lesser" countries not to ever mess with us.
Is Putin writing all this down?

good fences make good neighbers. If Russia has lost all semblence of being a good neighber it is because we have lost all semblence of having good fences. we have weekend our defences so much that the bullies of the world feel that the can walk all over us. we need to stand up like Clint eastwood in gran tarino with a gun in our hand pointing it at their head and say "get of my lawn". Only when we get a back bone again will the bullies respect us again.

For those of us who have lived and worked in the former Soviet Union and the nations it later spawned, who have known and understood the people and heard their stories told in private or after too many bottles of Stolichnaya, Russia is a fascinating nation with a brutal history. One thing Russians respect is power. They respected Reagan because he meant what he said and he knew what it took to negotiate with the other guy. They had no respect for Carter or subsequent weakling presidents, Obama included. The people are great, but the government and business is still run by the apparatchniki and the mafia that always was there.

To all you Salt Lake City "Bring back Bob" efforts, let me clue you in on what works.
Money talks ... your pleadings do not.
Contact sponsors/advertisers of the station and tell them you will not buy from them until Bob Lonsberry is back ... then don't buy ... this is how it really works ... enough calls the advertisers will start advertising on another station ...
Same thing happened in Rochester, after losing well over $1 million in advertising revenues with Bob gone, the owners had a different view of events and the folding to the hypocritical Ministers and Mayor of Rochester.
I imagine the margins on advertising is very high like 90% .... when the big shots start getting hit in the cash flow somehow they find the right decision. Sad but true.

Yea.And the logical place to begin is the securing of our borders-north and south, coast to coast, air and offshore space as well.And that is not likely to happen, as the Justice Department and the President of our Nation have demonstrated that they intend to do the exact opposite.We Americans must now view every remaining day of this destructive Obama "administration" as being that of clear and present danger to our lives, liberties, and happiness. That is how the people of Arizona are feeling-and their Governor has acted. At no other time w/in memory can I recall when "the enemy within" was upfront,at the wheel, and in our face-indeed in total control,willing and able to move events w/out any check. And sadly,with the complicity of a large segment of our nation that appears to have grown completely senescent,or worse- uncaring.We are in for a rough ride, and will be damn lucky to survive the meltdown that is sure to come by the time these destructive and malicious dolts in Wash.D.C. have had their way.

"# 26. 7/9/10 9:07 AM The Russians sided with Hitler???? My history book says Hitler invaded Russia "
Another example of the PC and ineffectual education our kids get. Hitler and Stalin were out-and-out ALLIES (even though they hated each other) from 1939 until June 22, 1941, when Hitler did indeed invade Russia.(See Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact of 1939, and the "secret" protocols therein). Both were cynical, amoral men running murderous, expansionist regimes, and both invaded Poland, almost simultaneously, in September 1939. No country suffered more than Poland in WWII, and that includes Russia and Germany themselves. But THEY are the ones that caused the Polish suffering. The story of the Warsaw (up)rising of summer 1944 is particularly instructive and tragic. Stalin purposely held back his troops from aiding the Poles while the Nazis destroyed the city and the Polish Home Army. Those that did survive, were, for the most part, incarcerated (and many executed) by the Communist regime put in place by the Soviets after "liberation." Nice guys, both Adolf and Joe.
