You want to declare war? So while you oppose sending weapons to Ukraine, you want us to declare war on Russia.

Go back to your whining, it was less goofy.

Well, that’s what giving military aid to the Ukraine does.

You send weapons to Ukraine, that’s essentially what you are declaring. War against Russia. Apparently Ted agrees we should risk war with Russia over a regional civil conflict.

Now imagine Mexico going to civil war and Russia sanctions the US when we protect our interests right over the border. All the sudden Putin decides to send his commie buddies weapons there. You’d be just fine with that, right?

So you are a guy who can’t tell the difference between sending help to Ukraine and declaring war on Russia, who swears they aren’t even in Ukraine.

Great.

You have no way of backing up the things you say. You just say it. LOL

By all means, keep yammering on in your sanctimonious way.

It is interestingly robotic.

Sending weapons over there by Congressional decree means we’re declaring Russia our enemies. Or is Ted saying we should just do it on the sly like we did with Pakistan in the 80’s???

That’s so Juan McCain if he does.

If you can’t figure out that Palin and Cruz are the leaders of the conservatives and their own people, then you are blind.

“didn’t Reagan tell Gorbachev “Don’t meddle on our borders and we won’t meddle on yours.”?

The Ukraine is no longer within Russia’s borders.

Doesn’t anyone remember that we are a founding member of NATO?

Yes, and it's border was west Germany. When Russia left east Europe, NATO should have stayed where it was.

No my little commie friend, thank God we liberated those people and now instead of slaves of an evil Russia, and enemies, they are allies.

Your side should stay where they belong and withdraw their army.

Thank God for Reagan.

The Russians left East Germany, and east Europe in the 90's. When are we going to leave Germany?

Why are you trying to provoke a war?

Why? Are you saying sovereign independent countries should not be joining a defensive alliance? Just because it pisses off their former slave masters?

I sure hope there is a better reason than that.

You are literally at war as you invade Ukraine, along with Palin and Cruz, and Reagan, I seek to find peace and end your war like impulses.

They joined an aggressive alliance that wants to carve up Russia further. There was no need to join, the enemy already left.

Could you restate that, it makes absolutely no sense. Maybe you should get some sleep.

Putin’s been sending weapons to Cuba and Venezuela, among others in this hemisphere, as has Russia’s pal Iran, who has repeatedly attacked the US over the years, and whose labs are currently on the receiving end of Russian nuclear tech [even if their labs occasionally suffer ‘setbacks.’]Venezuela in turn used those weapons to attack Columbia, and Venezuela’s been inviting al Qaeda and Hezbollah in for a while now and it’s not just to drive ice cream trucks and cabs. Uruguay just had to send back an Iranian diplomat who they believe set a bomb outside the Israeli embassy there, so it is obvious that the war’s already been going for a while and Russia’s just using proxies. Putie Poot ‘s made no secret his desire to reestablish the USSR.

You are a mystery, being so far left and so anti-American/anti-West, and so pro-Russian.

The Reagan years must have been a nightmare for you, just as Palin and Cruz repulse you so much.

per Pat Buchanan, snip

This is neocon propaganda. Russian troops are in those enclaves because in August 2008 Georgia invaded South Ossetia to re-annex it, and killed and wounded scores of Russian peacekeepers. Tblisi’s invasion brought the Russian army on the run, which threw the Georgians out and occupied slices of Georgia itself.
