You just know all the major media will lead with this story the way they do when they can find some drooling idiot democrat fascist who predicted something a few years ago that turns out to be vaguely similar to something that actually happens.

You think now that the mainstream media is going to criticize a liberal for being wrong on Ukraine? I’ve said before that I don’t think you’re an American or a conservative. You might be surprised to know that many of us American conservatives do not think Sara Palin is a “some drooling idiot democrat fascist who predicted something a few years ago that turns out to be vaguely similar to something that actually happens.”

Plus you obviously can’t comprehend half of what you pretend to read before you run off at the mouth.

You’re changing the subject. You called Palin a fascist. Was that your opinion, and, if so, based on what facts? Oh, and did you serve with John Kerry in Vietnam, Boris?

I said, :
. . . some drooling idiot democrat fascist . . .

Thank you for proving beyond a shadow of a doubt English is not your native language and that you cannot understand simple English language sentences.

I've learned over the years that in forums nine out of ten of those who yell, "you're not an American" are themselves BS artists who are not American but only pretending to be.

Thank you so much for proving to everyone who can actually read and understand the English language that you are not the one in ten who is an exception to that rule.

Nice try. You can see from the headline that Blake Hounshell was saying Palin’s comments about a Russian invasion of Ukraine “extremely far-fetched scenario.” I don’t even care if you read that while you move your lips. Then, you at best jumped to a conclusion. So that’s projection, Boris. You then changed the subject after you’d bashed the lovely Ms. Palin and played the John Kerry card, as if that was pertinent to you referring to her as you did. Catch a breath and apologize to Ms. Palin.

No he didn’t. he wrote sarcasticly the MSM would not lead with this, Palin being correct, like the MSM would lead with some cockeyed prediction made by a drooling fascist Democrat.

That’s an interesting position that you’re suggesting since I know he still doesn’t think Russia has invaded Ukraine. Plus his other statements are routinely unsympathetic to the Ukrainian people.

If he were not pro-Putin, I might think you were right.

Now, now, mind reading by idiots who cannot understand simple English sentences is never successful nor is telling outright lies about other posters. I do think Putin has invaded Ukraine but only in the last day. If (in the US where we speak English, that's called "a big if") this isn't another case of Candyman yelling, "wolf" (surely they have the "Boy Who Cried Wolf" fairy tale in your country, no?) and there are actually Russian troops fighting in Russian uniforms, then yes, Russia has now invaded Ukraine.

Unfortunately, in the real world as opposed to the propaganda regurgitation world, not to any greater extent that the US invaded Kosovo, Libya, Syria, and so on where US troops have fought and died while the US denied it (font size="-1" color="blue">and all the European leaders know that which is why they have to be dragged along on sanctions) which means the absolute panic dolts who want to start Cold War up again to "save Ukraine" from itself, is totally stupid. So stupid it proves that those who pump that BS are absolutely full of crap with their garbage and constant regurgitation of lies and PR straight from Kiev followed with the usual Alnysky tactic of making it personal when someone doesn't agree with them.

Given your feeble grasp of the English language (Should I have said something like "Engrish" for you since the "hombre" trash is most likely horse hockey chosen by a group of BS artistes who hotseat the handle"?), notice that I did not mention Iraq, Granada, or even Panama, as well as a number of other cases where the US employed military force. That's because they're not similar situations. Something you obviously don't want anyone to think about when screaming your head off about how horrible it is for the Russian gander to behave exactly like the American goose.

My overriding opinion on the whole mess is it doesn't amount to CHIT as far as the US is concerned.

First and foremost, Ukraine is only a "big deal" because it was a convenient way to keep US eyes off of what was going on in Iraq until no one could keep it hidden any longer. Proof of that is Caliph Obama whimpering and backing down just the other day in his fancy new suit.

Since Ukraine is no longer a useful diversion for him, he'll be lifting some "targeted sanctions" on Russia to prove he wants to calm things down any day and calling it an incentive to negotiate. If the history of democrat fascist tough talk is any guide Caliph Obama will be more anxious to show his "good faith" than he was to put "targeted sanctions" on Russia in the first place. All because it's no longer a useful diversion for him to use.

There's a better than even chance that when Caliph Obama backs way, way, down, Kiev (idiots that they are) will probably shut off all shipments of NG across Ukraine at which time they will lose whatever support they have left from Germany and the rest of Europe.

f it all follows the path the Ukrainians have trod multiple times in the past twenty years, then when colorful leaves start falling from the trees and the weather turns colder, Ukrainians will be as upset with Candyman as they were with the last several thugs the threw out. This time, though, when party goers will return to the streets of Kiev and other Western Ukraine cities, the positions of authority the Nazi Boyz have in Candyman's coalition mean there's a good chance that some of the ethnic cleansing crowd will come out shooting to break up the demonstrations at least in Kiev. At that point, Candyman will either be deposed, flee, or possibly turn out to actually have brain one in his head. If he has brain one, though, he'd have already started to try to actually reform the Ukraine government instead of just helping to milk the country dry like all the people before him have.

There, now you have my opinion and don't have to lie or mind read.

I hope you (plural "you" so all shifts are covered) try some better translating software and get it all.
