Just because Putin is a bad guy and Russia is threatening Europe, which despises the U.S. anyway, does not mean that we have to send our troops and spooks into another hellhole which is none of our business.

Seems that many of you warmongers have already forgotten our recent experience in Iraq, and completely ignore the fact that Russia is a completely different, larger, and certainly more lethal animal.

I say not only no to getting involved, but HELL NO!

Just a strawman. No one said anything about sending troops. With this logic, you undermine the conservative interpretation of the cold war. Any reaction to the Soviets ought to be met with isolationism and defeatism. That is your position, while stupidly accusing people of wanting to send in "troops,' as if that's the only thing that can be done.

Uh, that is a red herring. Just because we support the Ukraine doesn’t mean we want to send troops.
