Caww is not “siding” with Putin. She has a wide and educated view of what is going on in Ukraine. Putin may be in many ways a bad man, but there is no doubt he is acting for the betterment of Russia. We, otoh, have a “president” who is acting for the destruction of America. Putin knows the dangerous evils of Islam and the homosexual agenda and life; our “president” promotes and embodies those evils.
You may say “Well, Putin kills journalists who criticize him”. My answer: Breitbart and Hastings, and who knows how many threatened. “Putin is power hungry”. What about 0bastard and his cabal? Whatever bad you can bring about Putin - and there is plenty - we have right here festering in dee cee. Our country is in terrible danger not from Russia, but from the coup of enemies that is in out own government.
And finally, the current crop of Ukraine leaders are thugs and criminals themselves. Why take one side over the other? Let them duke it out. Whatever side McInsane and 0bastard take, you can be guaran-damn-teed it’s the wrong side.

That’s for sure..and thanks LJ.
Putin’s as power hungry as the rest of the nation leaders, and covets the wealth that supports it. He’s long planned using oil as a weapon and play in the International Game according to “their” rules for a time...but only in order to operate and achieve his goals...but they also play that way as well....until theirs a conflict..then the bartering begins among nation leaders....similar to what happens in our government among democrats and republicans only on the World Stage.
IMO Putin took a great risk, but I think he knew it would be and prepared for the “consequences” long before the sanctions hit. He IS a player with a stacked deck at this point and the EU/NAto/US are on the defensive.....scrambling.
Ukraine is EU’s problem IMO...we need, as you said, to ‘let them duke it out’ with Russia and the EU. But the likes of McCain ,and others like him, have their own ambitions on the world stage and thus stick their nose in everywhere.
