How much are you getting paid to troll for Vlad? If you are not getting paid, then you are twice the fool.

Like Norm said, Putin is just so dreamy...

So let’s just count you as one of those people incapable of multitasking mentally. One CAN be capable of loathing BOTH Vlad and b. Hussein Obama, AND still love America.

All lormand does in engage in name calling and issuing false dichotomies.

Delusional about what.

The Russian invasion that you are currently representing, is right up to our NATO borders, and Sweden and Finland are considering joining NATO.

This is yesterday—”Russia warns Sweden it will face military action if it joins Nato”

“Last week Nato used the base for the first big deployment of a new special force to defend eastern Europe from an increasingly expansionist Russia. American Black Hawk helicopters thundered in the skies as German tanks rolled from across the nearby border, along with troops and hardware from seven other nations that make up Nato’s Spearhead Force, which was set up last year in response to Russia’s intervention in Ukraine.”

As long as you count me as correct I’m good with it. Unless you’d like to argue that America won’t be forced to fight Russia under Obama/Bush ROEs. But until we do fight like Patton, I’m right. Prove otherwise.

Why on earth should we arm Ukraine when the Kurds are still waiting for us to send them the weapons we promised? They are doing the heavy lifting for the rest of us in the fight against the most barbarous people on the face of the earth and Washington keeps ignoring them. Oh! We send some arms but they MUST go through the Iraqis first - AND THERE THEY STAY.

Fine, that is one military expert that says that the American military can’t fight, nor can it’s other 28 NATO allies.

I wouldn’t trade our forces for Putin’s poorly trained, ill-equipped, 1 year draftees, personally.

You have no idea what the ROI are in case of a Russian invasion, and don’t seem to realize that they can change.

What are the Polish ROIs, if Russia tries to reconquer them?

Thank you for giving more reasons NOT to vote for Cruz.

Cruz lost my support when he voted for the current TPA. Now he wants to wage a Proxy war with Russia that could start a war with Russia?

What is the Imminent National Security Threat to the United States in Ukraine?

Answer: None.... Let the EU worry about Ukraine.

Ansel, show me where Barry has done anything but hamstring our forces? Just one action that a general called that did not take a month and 24 law forms to approve by which time the plan was no longer doable.

One.

I’ll wait.

And THAT is what we fight the Soviet Union with? You first. Our troops would wax Putin in days. But they can’t. Because ...LIBERALS.

Call me then when the Russian tanks actually roll across the border of a NATO signatory country, and then I'll think about it...

Good question. Seems to me Islamic Extremism is the greatest threat. But I guess Senator McCain and President Osama see things differently.

uhhhh...what I just said is that Germany, Poland, and Hungary should stand up for Europe. I also said the Oligarchs of Kiev can’t be trusted with US weaponry (any more than the Iraqis could, I’ll add that now.)
I suspect if US politicians turn to protecting and defending the US, Ukraine’s neighbors will do just fine figuring things out.


Germany tried to surrender the Cold War for over 20 years. Had we followed your “Let the euros do it” advice several hundred million people would still be in communist chains.

I find it odd you are fixated on “oligarchs in Kiev” while ignoring the biggest oligarch of them all in Putin. His govt has been threatening nuclear war lately, btw.

Putin has threatened them all, and threatened Sweden this week.

Your current invasion takes you right up to our NATO borders, there is no reason not to supply our friend Ukraine with weapons to defend itself.

We still conduct military exercises inside of Ukraine, there is no reason for us to end our relationship, just because you want to rebuild your evil empire.
