Biden said Wednesday sending troops to confront a Russian invasion of Ukraine "is not in the cards."

...

"The idea the US will unilaterally use force to confront Russia invading Ukraine is not in the cards right now," Biden told reporters. "We have a moral obligation and a legal obligation to our NATO allies under Article 5. It's a sacred obligation. That obligation does not extend to ... Ukraine."

...

While the US has effectively signaled it would not go to war for Ukraine, it has also underscored that a Russian invasion would lead to severe consequences.

Well, Putin's discount on the purchase of Hunter Biden "artwork" is down the drain.

I think they would be more like high heels.

Biden says a lot of things, some of it coherent.

I’m old enough to remember when one of those things was the statement he wouldn’t impose vaccine mandates, but here we are.

There’s nothing wrong with keeping your mouth shut on some issues, Joe.

NEVER tell the enemy what you’re going to do. That’s kinda the first rule of warefare. But then, he probably promised Putin in the phone call the other day.

Consequences.

Putin: Oh, no. A harshly worded letter to the editor of the New York Times from Biden? I could lose my leadership position over something like that. I’m calling for a retreat.

I think NATO is past it’s “best by” date.

Mr. Putin, I have a list of things that I don’t want you to do in Ukraine. Number one is DON’T TOUCH THE PROSCUTOR! Got that?

[frank ballenger]

Putin: Not a surprise, Joe. My operatives played me the audio of the bugs in the White House. Way ahead of you.

[fightin kentuckian]

Number two is I want my 10% up front.

[Tallguy]

Putin got his money’s worth in Biden.

There’s nothing wrong with keeping your mouth shut on some issues, Joe.

To be fair, he isn't saying anything Putin didn't already know.

Looks like he just gave Putin the green light.

[cld51860]

Oh, great. Another lie.

[Seruzawa]

This is a sure sign that US Troops are on the way.

Good....but maybe no need to broadcast and make a big fuss.
