We owe the Ukrainians. Remember when they fought to the death in 1777 and 1812 for us?…

That’s not true at all. Biden is am idiotic fool, and these Fabian Socialists may be giving the Eastern Communists the “excuse” for a preemptive strike they have been always looking for, without much fear of a retaliatory strike. Our country has a “launch on Impact” protocol for nukes due to these same leftist idiots. We don’t have energy independence or a robust functioning war industry because of these same leftists. And the ones that are functioning have to kick back to politicians.

Biden and the Democrats need this war to get Biden re-elected in 2024. Because no one will change presidents in the middle of a war. that’s just the way it is. But this is not an Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, Libya or Somalia. This is the country with the 2nd largest nuclear arsenal in the world, and a regime prepared to use them. It seems Joe and the idiots in DC are prepared to lose a few million Americans if it means they can get re-elected.

>>>>For God’s sake people!! When are folks going to finally get it through their thick skulls that WE HAVE NO BUSINESS INTERFERING WITH OTHER PEOPLE’S PROBLEMS!

Whilst I agree that minding our business should be the optimal state of affirs, that does not mean sticking our heads in the sand. Its not 1787 anymore. The world is far more integrated. Something happening on the other side of the world could affect us EVEN IF WE MIND OUR OWN BUSINESS.

Biden and his puppetmaster Obama are treasonous idiots, who were on the take from China and Russia.

“And yet a majority of the population is now busting out the Ukrainian flags when Joe Biden says that Russia’s Putin must go”

Really? I would argue that a vast majority of Americans don’t give a hoot about Ukraine. The problem with opinion pieces like this is the assumption that “everyone” is aware of the issue; and that they have an opinion on it.

This is rarely the case. The average person on the street could not point to Ukraine on a map.

It is literally stupid to make statements like the above quote.

Well, every American hating progressive in the world agrees with you. That alone should give you pause. You are being manipulated, it's that simple. America is crumbling all around you, and you want to go to war with Russia.

There’s a whole bunch of European countries it has a greater effect on.
Time for them to find their spines.

Wasn’t a large portion of America inexorably against war just a few years ago?

Faced will full-spectrum propaganda on all fronts - media, culture, tech, business, religious - Americans move like sheep wherever the sheepdog pushes them.

They cared more about crushing England than cared about the US.
You know that.

Didn’t you just say it’s not 1787( or somewhere around there) anymore?

Covid is presently controlling China.

No. the communist party is presently controlling China. Covid is just another excuse to enhance that control.

Every time I see something that raises my spirits about the progress of the Ukraine War I remember that there is NO reliable information coming from any side of that war. Some things may be true but that cannot be determined from the information available from any source.

Most people are sheep.
They are incapable of independent thought.

Look how many people decided to get an experimental vaccine for a virus that was 99% curable.

Look at how many voluntarily would wear a mask to shop in a supermarket. Even yesterday, I saw two thirty something women wearing a mask at a local butcher shop/market.

1st off I see no clamoring by the US public to go to WAR! It’s as usual! The Gov & their jackass media cohorts. No one else!

We Conserves are not clamoring for it and the puzzy arse libs/snowflakes/wokers are too friggn scared of their own shadows to want to go to war!

The number of freepers that have become Bidenistas is disturbing.

It requires no mental or moral gymnastics to both hate Putin and despise Biden.
