As a resident of Delaware, I am heartfully sorry that this idiot ever escaped our borders.

What a maroon.

The borders of “Europe” have been changing by force for the last 2,000 years.

Only the US and NATO can do it, right?

Who really believes half the countries in Eastern Europe aren't just as worried about someone like Billy Jeff needing to get a scandal off the front-page and bombing them into agreeing part of their country should become a new Muslim State as they are about what Russia is up to?
