This video clip from a Romney-Obama debate re-surfaced, in which Obama ridicules Romney for suggesting that Russia was a “geopolitical threat”. Perhaps Obama would put things differently after the events of this past week.
The video wouldn't embed, but it's available at the link here; it's only a 30 second clip, but it's worth a watch:

What's ironic is that Obama ought to stick by his previous view. Russian expansion into a region that voted 95+% to be a part of Russia is hardly evidence of a geopolitical threat. Now, had Russian annexed a region that despises Russia (like, say, Poland) ... but they haven't.
