Just stop, already

More bluster and meaningless "lines" from the Leader of the Free World:

At a news briefing during a summit of North American leaders in Mexico on Wednesday night, President Barack Obama expressed hope.

"If the truce is implemented, it could provide space for the sides to resolve their disagreements peacefully," he said, adding that the U.S. and its European partners would continue to engage with all sides.

Earlier in the day, Obama condemned the violence in Ukraine, saying that the U.S. holds the government "primarily responsible for ensuring they are handling protesters peacefully" and that "there will be consequences if people step over the line."

You know who's on the other side of the line? Bashar Assad, sitting comfortably. Everyone within a 1000 miles of Kiev knows full well that President Obama isn't going to do jack squat about Ukraine. There will be no consequences for whatever happens, so let's just stop pretending, mkay?
