    The ONLY reason to question the dumping of billions into Ukraine is to serve Russia? :brood:

    Yes, I'm sure we could bail, and let Putin have Ukraine, and he'll totally stop there, and be happy, and be a good little boy, and not bother anyone ever again.
    Cuz you know how you can rely on despots.
    Hell, we could probably handshake that deal like the McDonald brothers with Ray Croc.
    Ray Croc never screwed anyone, and that's why Micky Dees is totally uncontroversial.
    Just like Putin's Russia.
    :yes:

    Oh, NOW we're bothered about calling anyone who isn't in lockstep behind fighting Russia Commies or traitors?

    Used to be all we fucking heard from the Right, but now they're on the receiving end it's suddenly wrong?

    Cry moar.

    I am not "the right." I just better not hear any wailing about how there's no room in the budget for this or that when we can firehose money at foreign nations that don't give a shit about us.

    Yes, Ukraine hates us so much, they totally helped Trump with his hate-boner for Hunter Biden.
    Oh, wait...

    I'm amazed we can hear any from you given how tightly your lips are clamped round their dick, but we always do.

    I don’t have any theories on race, I have facts and the fact remains, there is only one race of people on this planet, the human race.

    Rand Paul beyond any doubt. Rohrbacher is gone, thank god. And Tulsi.

    MTG and Boebert? Probably - they are stupid enough to fall for it.

    Sens. Richard C. Shelby (Ala.), Steve Daines (Mont.), John Hoeven (N.D.), John Neely Kennedy (La.), Jerry Moran (Kan.), John Thune (S.D.) and Johnson, plus Rep. Kay Granger (Tex.) were the ones who went to Moscow on July 4th to bend the knee. They are at least open for business with Putin. They all remain in their respective offices despite this.

    True for the moment but Richard Shelby didn’t run again and will be replaced by his former Chief of Staff Katie Britt (first woman AL Senator) next Jan. No idea how pro-Russia she is but wouldn’t be surprised if she follows in Shelby’s footsteps.

    just because you can go through life without any friends, acknowledging others' value, or upholding obligations without threat of being somehow compelled doesn't mean it'd be a good approach to foreign policy.

    I'm sure he doesn't agree with or even understand what you're saying. :chris:
