I can point out quite a few Obama has done himself and even more among the rest of congress.

You are chastising him over something that is honestly irrelevant. Why don't we look at the situation for what it is instead. Russia bullying around a smaller country. Yes you can compare the United States to Iraq, but at what point do we decide to be "bigger" than that.

However I get the feeling if we condemn or berate Russia everyone here will just call the United States a hypocrite and rightly so; what is messed up however is knowing that there is no satisfying a majority of the people that have been complaining no matter what the United States has done.

Regardless of the international situation you will find a reason to dislike the US; and this deeply saddens me that my own fellow Americans can be so ashamed and self hating of their country without reason. I say without reason because the typical reasons brought up would require you to hold disdain for the rest of the world also.
I totally agree.
And technically we did not invade Iraq, this was a continuation of operation Desert Storm after Sadaam violated the ceasefire agreement and 14 UN resolutions. All we did was enforce the resolutions the pussies at the UN refused to do.
