By: Dave Roppolo music Dave Roppolo, a Pompano Beach-based musician on Sunday said it was time to “get tough” with the Russian president for his decision to invade Crimea in southern Ukraine and subsequently annex it. A tough stance the Obama administration “has failed to take,” said Roppolo. “If all Congress is going to do is a song and dance routine with the Russians instead of taking some substantive punitive actions, I figured I’d deliver a song with a real message; an American message of strength and resolve,” Roppolo said. Roppolo’s song, entitled “Hey Mr. Putin,” contains a warning directed at Putin not to go on an “annexation spree” of eastern Europe. The song lyrics speak to a unified America that will not tolerate another European land grab such as that carried out by the former Soviet Union. “You’ve got to talk tough, sing tough and be willing to follow through on your promises,” Roppolo said. Roppolo’s song has become an ad hoc anthem for millions of American bar patrons and patriotic Americans. Political analysts have dubbed his efforts, ‘Song Diplomacy.’ “I’ll do whatever I can as a musician to help strengthen America,” said Roppolo. “The song has struck a chord with America.” End
