Obama: Putin Is No Chess Master -- CNN
Washington (CNN) -- Critics have pounded President Barack Obama for being upstaged by the Russian President Vladimir Putin, but Russia's economy is plunging into a recession and Obama's got more to back up his tack on the world stage.
Obama pointed to the result of his sanctions tactic in Russia as proof he's got a successful strategy, in an interview with CNN's Candy Crowley airing Sunday.
"There was a spate of stories about how he is the chess master and outmaneuvering the West and outmaneuvering Mr. Obama and this and that and the other. And right now, he's presiding over the collapse of his currency, a major financial crisis and a huge economic contraction," Obama said. "That doesn't sound like somebody who has rolled me or the United States of America."

My Comment: Putin "hasn’t rolled me’ .... it is very strange to hear a U.S. President personalize U.S. - Russian relations to the level that he has in this CNN interview. Does he not know that it is not about him?

It's the politics of the personality.
American's have no history, no grasp of the world, and spend more time reseaching Kim Kardashian's butt, than say, Austerian Economics.
So the actions of Russia, must be reduced to "Putin", and conflicts, must be defined down to Comic Book level clashes to cut through the mass of Faux and TMZ.

"Does he not know that it is not about him?" I suspect Putin knows this and it plays a large part in his moves.
Americans have no history,no grasp of the world....that's a little harsh ain't it Jay?
Typical Jay

Only Americans research Kim's butt. G-d knows they do not have gossip rags in Britain or the rest of Europe.
G-d also knows that the entire American population reads gossip rags weekly if not daily.
G-d also knows that the Chinese would not waste their time with stuff like Eurovision.
QED
point to Jay
Wow ... Jay has more fans than I do.
Putin not may not be a chess master.
We all know Obama is a super smart chess master. He got it when he got the Nobel prize.
But I would place my $$$ on Putin over Obama on a chess match.
So what's the queen up to these days? How about the commonwealth doing...relavent stuff?
Well, guys, didn't mean to be so harsh, but it was a comment, not an essay.
