"Some of the pre-invasion forces? Nope, no support at all." I didn't say there was absolutely no support, or that the Russians can't pay enough people to come out and stand in a crowd. I said that 65 percent of the population did not support it, as confirmed by multiple polls conducted this month and in March, and also in the past. The few hundred extremists marched out by the armed goons choking and punching people (how come you don't post those pictures?), or the Russian Spetsnaz troops (the guys in green, some of whom have been identified) does not justify Russian invasion and annexation.

The Western media has abetted the lie that Putin is some sort of macho guy instead of a weaselly little spook with short-man complex. At the same time the Western sports media has largely ignored one of the biggest stories in the entire history of sports with two brothers dominating the heavyweight division. Both of which are at least Gene Tunney's equal in literacy which makes the story even bigger. The Ukraine is justifiably proud of them.

"There is no popular support for uniting with Russia in Eastern Ukraine. " "I didn't say there was absolutely no support"
My mistake.
Obviously Russia is involved in whats happening in the east. Do you think the EU had no involvement with what happened in the west?

(Low taxes and less spending in Sodom and Gomorrah is not my idea of a conservative victory)
