I saw the clip...... he wasn't praising Putin...... he was attempting to slam President Obama! rdharma Mar 2014 #8

I am sure I heard him call Putin a leader randr Mar 2014 #12

Yes, he called Putin "a leader"...... inferring that President Obama was not a leader. rdharma Mar 2014 #13

I take him at his word--not his inference randr Mar 2014 #14

Then you would be wrong..... nt rdharma Mar 2014 #16
