Funny, the Russians . . . always the victims. While their country invades and occupies other countries.

There are a lot of Spanish speaking people in the U. S. Do you approve of Mexico arming Texans and calling special elections along the border?I bet some Putin fans would go for that.

There are a lot of Spanish speaking people in Texas. Should we allow Mexico to arm them and call a special election? With regard to Crimea, it would be more precise to say, arm them, give them an election where the choice is between "yes" and "yes," and then use the armed folks to prevent them from voting in a real election.

"How would you like Mexico arming our populace and not only demanding, but calling special elections in occupied contested regions of our nation?"
. . Might not be that far off, especially with "executive amnesty" coming.

Lol, that’s conservative./ Its necessary to remove those who disagree with the coup, so they can have normal debate. Nice to hear it admitted openly.

Just out of curiosity, how do you feel about members of Congress promoting the dissolution of the U.S.? “Normal” debate?

The Russians do know something about ethnic cleansing, I will grant you that . . . .

No compromise allowed, of course. Agree or we will kill you.
Sounds just like a Democrat.

There are a lot of Spanish speaking people in Texas. Should we allow Mexico to arm them... They are already armed. This is Texas after all.
... and call a special election?
LOL! Mexico would lose. Mexicans do not come to Texas out of a desire to live in Mexico.
BTW you have it backwards. We arm Mexicans, not the other way around.

Technically legal, but not very democratic of him. He has to officially recognize that the secessionists are regular combatants representing the Donbar, not terrorists, or ensure the elections result in the proper representation of the Donbar region in the parliament. If the Donbar hasn’t seceded, you must include them. (Yes, the U.S. did regard the Confederacy as combatants, not criminals.)

I’m against it. A better analogy would be if your man Obama decided all the representatives from Texas should be banished so the agenda of his socialist revolution could be debated normally.
The Kiev Nazis have a lot on common with Obama. That’s why Obama, McCain, and Hillary love em so much.

Or like the first Nazis when they consolidated power in the elected German government. Very similar.

Russians who are not loyal to Ukraine should leave for Russia where they will never have a role in govt, that is the Russian way.

Texas fought for it's independence from Mexico. It took some volunteers from the US to help. That's basically what's going on in two regions of Ukraine. They don't want to be part of the George Soros's European Union.
