Sorry, Conks! Your Hero, Putin, is going down in flames!



Western sanctions, capital flight and depressed oil prices are taking their toll on Russia's economy, leading a major credit rating agency to downgrade the country's sovereign rating to "junk" territory. Ratings agency S&P said Monday it had slashed Russia's debt rating to BB+ from BBB-, adding that the outlook for Russia's economy was darkening. The move not only is a blow to Russia's prestige, it also raises the country's borrowing costs at a time it can ill afford higher outlays.




S&P had warned in late December that it could deprive Russia of its investment-grade credit rating as soon as mid-January, following a rapid deterioration of the country's monetary flexibility and a weakening economy. S&P said in a statement that external and fiscal buffers were likely to deteriorate due to rising external pressure and increased government support to the Russian economy. The downgrade marks the first time in more than 10 years that Russian sovereign debt has been rated below investment grade.

The truth is, this is nothing to laugh at, except for the fact that every Conk in America pilloried Obama for a "weak" response to Crimea.

Wrong again, Conks!

Yes because what the world really needs is a desperate and pissed off Russian state

So Obama should bend over backwards to accomodate him and make him happy?

Why not? Americans always expect the world to do the same to them

Interesting how the party of peace and tranquility are beating the war drums louder than ever.

He normally bends over frontward.

Isn't that exactly what he's doing with the Iyatolla's in Iran over Nukes?

Yay Fracking!!!

A desperate and pissed off Russian state is the status quo.

Yep. I'm sure they're just as happy about the sanctions imposed on them as the Russians.

I guess we'll have to draw up a custody agreement on the International Space Station. Oh yeah, we don't have the ability to get any actual people up there right now.

Not to worry, SpaceX is on it. Yay private sector!

The fact that a private company launched their own rocket to a suborbital altitude, then almost landed that very same rocket on to a floating barge in the middle of the ocean is miraculous in itself.

Unlike government funded NASA, who's rockets explode on take off

I'm not disagreeing with you. If anybody is going to pull this off successfully in private industry it will be Elon Musk. I'm just saying recent events don't inspire 100% confidence just yet.
