Acting president Oleksandr Turchynov said in a statement that "unless Admiral (Sergiy) Gayduk and all the other hostages -- both military and civilian ones -- are released, the authorities will carry out an adequate response... of a technical and technological nature."

Not at all...I believe what most of us want is a negotiated settlement, as should have happened back in 94. The Budapest Memorandum, give me a break, that was a Clintonian piece of garbage.

I haven’t forgotten the Polish came to our aid in Iraq. They are good people. It’s the Frances and such I don’t trust. How many times have we had to save their a**?

Romanov’s wife is called Romanova.
