From a CNN article we have:
"President Obama made clear that Russia's continued violation of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity would negatively impact Russia's standing in the international community," according to a statement released by the White House.Gee, aren't you happy and proud to live in a country, like the USA, which would never seriously consider violating the sovereignty and territorial integrity of another country?

In terms of "game theory", Russia and China play chess while the US plays checkers.
The last time I checked, there was a list of countries that the USA had sent troops, armed ships, and aircraft into recently, and for reasons similar to Russia’s in Crimea: the former Yugoslavia, Somalia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, none of them even anywhere close to American soil.
No joke. This is true.
Why not? President Obama received the award after only months in office and before he ramped up drone strikes worldwide. Who's to say Putin isn't equally deserving? I don't know what's in the water up in Norway, but it appears they are really starting to lose it.
