Invite the crews to land and defect and set them up on welfare, obamacare, obama phones, and hot chicks!

How to capture a Ruskie Bomber.

They can even vote for Hillary in 2016!

Heck of a haul. I wonder what sort of galley and rest-room facilities they have on a TU-95?

Heck, we should intercept them, and invite them down for a rest break with beer and BBQ.
But, airspace is free to all. As long as they are out side our territorial waters, they are free to do as the wish.

Putin has something planned—maybe the end game for Ukraine? The Russians do nothing without a plan. Cuba has a role to play in this—you can bet. The sign on Obamas back reads—”Kick Me hard” In Russian and Chinese.

Save your breath!

We have a substantial segment of participants who fashion themselves conservative purists. They sat it out with McCain and they sat it out with Romney and I'm sure that there will be those who sit it out with whomever they feel to be "inadequate" in the next go around.

It never seems to dawn on then that just about anything would have been better than what we've had while they were "standing firm" on their unbending principles.

Different strokes...different folks.

Ukraine is toast. The west has done nothing to help them and Russia seems to be preparing another land grab.

Hmmm... in the tradition of failing powers we COULD hire the Russians to defend our borders
It would leave us more money for Bread and Circus to boot.

If Mexico had any problems with how the Russians did it they could take it up with them. Our hands would be clean LOL!

“shoot them down , smoke um & splash um”

Have they invaded our airspace? Have they violated any treaties? Do you just want to start WWIII to live out some apocalyptic fantasy? With all the trillions we have spent on defense you’d think we could keep an eye on them to prevent any misunderstandings.

“I’m sure that there will be those who sit it out with whomever they feel to be “inadequate” in the next go around.”

Which will be anyone who’s nominated.

I understand, Russia needs to gather all the intelligence they can before President Cruz takes office, not that it will do them any good at that point.

I guess I’m just an old, crusty fossil who remembers when the Monroe Doctrine still carried weight with foreign powers. When was it cancelled? I also think the Gulf of Mexico should be an American lake. But that’s just silly ol’ me.
