One looks like something from a gay calendar, the other looks like a loser on a bike.
There’re plenty so-called conservatives here who have a hankering for ‘butch’ government.
That is why “Outernet” will become more popular as time goes on. It will the dictators.
Could have been the Lone Ranger. I smell a Wag The Dog movie in the making.
No we, have a hankering for minding our own business instead of worrying about what countries halfway across the globe are doing.
We both know that... but still, I'm with you rudeboy. I feel every country should have a free press, democracy and the rule of law. That's a given. But first we need to get our own house in order...
Saying the words of freedom are fine but what do we offer other countries? Is there a free press in Afghanistan? With all the money and blood poured into that hellhole, nothing has changed. Same with Iraq. Same with every place we've been in the last 20 years...
There's no wisdom in our State Department. That's a problem. Yes, the people of the world want to come here to the US - because the American people have fought to keep American free... but those same people do NOT want America coming to them - either in the form or military or cash. We don't know what we're doing... Liberal elites run the overseas shows and it's a horror.
If we went into Ukraine what would happen? Kerry would be pushing ‘global warming’ and ‘gay marriage’. You know that... Let's get our own house back in order... Right now - we have very little to offer the world.

Ukraine has banned Russian TV stations (the most popular in Ukraine). Not mentioned in this article. I wonder why?
Just like the press didn’t mention the Muslim Kosovars were slaughtering Serbs.
You "smell" a wag the dog scenario.
You're not being objective.
People like bias when they agree with it. People like a restricted press when it shuts down voices they disagree with. Then they wonder what happened.
How ironic. Coming from you.
But they’re still allowing MSNBC and the New York Times. :)
George Soros.
Obama is a villain and an enemy of America, but these idiots who claim that America is always at fault are traitors as well.
Your hankering for minding your own business always manifests itself in hoping Putin can use communist tactics to suppress another nation. So why, if you’re just a parochial partisan, are you so interest in promoting Putinism?
That's not true. There are no Nazis in Ukraine. If you report on them, you lose your job!
'Independent' Russian News Site Has Editor Replaced by the KremlinSee?The first step to controlling any nation is controlling the media, which is why Russia is cracking down on its "independent" journalists in the wake of its non-invasion invasion of Crimea. Galina Timchenko, the editor of popular online news site Lenta.ru was replaced with a pro-Kremlin editor after the site posted a story on the Ukraine's Right Sector far-right movement.
There's no official word on how many staff members quit in protest, but every staff member signed a statement protesting what they consider direct censorship by the Kremlin, and the entire site appears to be on hiatus, if not shuttered entirely. According to The Moscow Times the staff took this as "a pretext to shut the agency down." The new editor, according to Agence France-Presse Moscow correspondent Maria Antonova, was formerly "editor of Vzglyad, a pro-Kremlin website now busy promoting an anti-NATO video game 'Maidan.'"
And for all of those Putin suck ups out there.... this is what communism looks like
Facil. El ruso.
Putin o Yack Lord?
