Moving those goalpoats like the Ukraine army is moving the front lines.

You're just a tough liberal to figure out. Ukraine is where it is today because of sanctions against Russia from the west, and a limitless supply of missiles, guns, ammo, etc, to use against Russia. Somehow to you, we are Putin sympathizers simply because we don't want to send troops and money to Ukraine.

Such a shame you don't give any credit to the Ukrainian people who are courageously defending their homeland.

You and I agree that sitting on our hands would have resulted in the Russians rolling unchecked through non-Nato Eastern Europe. The ramifications of that would have been disastrous. Not only for the economy, but for the US as a world leader.


I don't see how appeasement isn't anything but Putin sympathizing. I'm glad we don't have to live in that reality.

No shortage of people invading other people in our history, it's just that this time, the victims look like you with the same religion. And that hurts you and the west. Meanwhile, people that look like me have been getting invaded, attacked, or killed from the collateral damage of "war" over the decades and no one bats an eye. I couldn't care less about Russia and Ukraine. There is no good scenario in any ending when it comes to that situation. Best case scenario ends up with one third of Ukraine becoming Russia, worse case scenario is WWIII.

Not wanting to get involved does not mean I am sympathizing with Putin. Personally I think it's a dumb move on his end that was not thought out well and very poorly executed. I don't care about Putin, nor do I care about Zelensky. Lastly, "US" and "world leader" don't go hand in hand when Biden is President.

What are your thoughts on China and Taiwan?

PRDU's thoughts on Asia are whatever MSM's narrative is. He will put their flag on his twitter bio and be hawkish on whatever the next quagmire is. Most people in America don't give a squat about the Russian speaking, Eastern Ukrainian border. They care more about what happens in this country and our own border. But hey, what is a few hundred billion for one of the most corrupt nations in the world. Maybe we shouldn't be paying for Ukranian pensions and funding Ukranian Oligarch's. If you don't think they are skimming the money we are sending over there you are naive. Oh, by the way, how much have NATO countries contributed to this effort???? Next to nothing compared to us. I am sure when you ask them if they are sympathetic to the Ukranian people but they cannot even pay for their electricity bill. We simply don't have the money to do this anymore PRDU.

I once heard a rumor that the Ukrainian people took up their own arms to help defend their cities... THEIR OWN ARMS


Thank God for 2A huh? It's nice having several weapons in the closet isn't it? I mean what party would want to limit Ukraine, or any other Countries, ability to defend itself from threats both foreign and domestic.
