A relative of mine was notorious for keeping things people handed to him. Hand him a cigarette lighter, he’d light his cigarette then put the lighter in his pocket. You ALWAYS had to remind him who the lighter belonged to. ANYTHING you handed to him he’d put it in his pocket. He was not a thief. It was just his habits.

I didn’t see the interview but I take it as an ‘afterthought’ on Krafts part.

Like during the Army Navy game the one announcer ‘suggested’ PE Trump ‘appoint’ Vern Lundquist(?) as Ambassador to Ireland.

If it were a real ‘serious’ request from Kraft, I am sure it would be done privately etc etc etc.

Remember basically every question to President Trump has to be viewed askance - especially from ‘certain’ circles.

I really believe that NO official should be going on CNN, CNBC etc... Like Rush says he will only go on if live and then he is skeptical.

Anyone considered ‘controversial’ should avoid any kind of ‘public forum’.

A group that I am a member of (VCDL) was being interviewed by K Couric and the editing included a question near the end, a 10 second (+-) blank stare from the VCDL people and a ‘thats it, thanks’ with the narrative recap saying THE PANEL was unable to or wouldn’t answer a KEY QUESTION’.

= = = = = = = = = = = =

I used to carry a 75-100 dollar Cross Pen because of that.

If you are using a 1.98 Papermate/generic pen and someone pockets it, you shake your head and walk away mumbling or may not realize it till too late.

Hand someone a Cross Pen and I would wait for it and NOT be ‘ashamed’ to ask for it..

Not really the money but the inconvenience of finding another pen etc...(Well, the money also)

“It would really be in the best interest of US-Soviet relations if you meant to give the ring as a present,” Kraft has said he was told on the White House call.

amazing ? not so much with that WH

Re: “Apparently you still didn’t research for the answers for your questions.”

There aren't any answers.

White House source? Unknown.

Kremlin source? Unknown.

Putin's explanation? Unknown.

Business discussion between Putin and Kraft? Unknown.

Quid pro quo between Putin and Kraft? Unknown.

Re: “I just posted the article; which I found curious and amusing.”

If you had said that in your first Comment, I would have said, “OK,” and dropped the whole issue.

Instead, you chose to mock one of the most dedicated researchers at Free Republic.

Had a friend who worked at Kraft’s home company and he asked his secretary if Kraft meant for Putin to have the ring. She said F NO!

Daffynition to zeestephen: “Meh. There's a dog whistle calling you from DU, better get back, the village needs you.”

Whoops!

You need to read your own bio page, Daff.

Daffynition mocks other Freepers who cry “Troll”...

“...then there will be accusations that the other guys are not real conservatives, probably liberal trolls, because they don’t like the same things you like.”

And...

“HAHAHAHAHA! CAN I CALL ‘EM OR NOT?! WHAT DID I SAY? Oh, man, it's good to be right. Didn't realize we were going to have to wait ‘til post 176 until one Freeper accused another of being a troll, but it finally happened, just as I predicted. I love being right.”

When Putin was in Vegas he went to the Pawn Shop and Rick gave him $50 for it.

If that was an exchange of gifts, what did Putin give Robert Kraft? A Russian athletic supporter? If I read the report correctly, it said Kraft let him try the ring on - surely Putin must have asked to try it on, because it would be lame for Kraft to have spontaneously said, “Would you like to try it on?” Nope, the report rings true. It was a vicious and meant to diss the ring’s’ owner and his country. No way that was an exchange of gifts.

Of course he was a thief, just nonchalant about it.

**At my shop, family comes first, and money comes second, depending on who ya ask. But the best part: You never know what’s gonna come through that door.**

Best I can offer you for that ring is 25 bucks. Da.
