Apparently testing which country he will move to with his billions of dollars skimmed off the top after he gets booted from Ukraine.  He already has a villa in Italy so there is that option.  And now he has gone Baghdad Bob on us with his statement that as of today Russia doesn't control Bakhmut......his reason is they still are occupying some buildings on the outskirts of the city.  The more I watch this debacle the more I am convinced that absent full-scale war with NATO Russia is going to win.  And if we give him F-16's and train their pilots they are just going to get shot down.  Zelensky is clearly looking at life after the fall of Ukraine and where he and the other kleptocrats in Ukraine will spend the money they stole from U.S. taxpayers.

Europe is getting weary of this war and all the refugees, China is thoroughly enjoying us depleting our weapons stockpiles to support this doomed effort and the neocons are probably already trying to figure out how to distance themselves from the coming end game.  Democrats already have their answer....Ukraine fell because Republicans didn't put a Ukraine flag on their lapels and in their Twitter bio.

He's definitely not putting all his eggs in one basket with NATO.  He's touring the world looking for handouts.  I'm not convinced that he and "the big guy", otherwise know as Joe Biden, aren't skimming off the top.  I grew up with the "domino theory" so I don't necessarily believe that the future of the free world lies with Ukaine.  

I find it discouraging that we never seem to learn from our repeated involvement in wars that will just drag on and on.  And then of course, if Ukaine is successful in ousting Russia, we'll be paying to rebuild the country.

According to Martini and the Hound, only Trump is clean.  Everyone else is on the take. You think $2M for a pardon was a fair price?

...to introduce once again Trump, a man who obviously owns GF, else he wouldn't feel the need to reference him in a string that has nothing to do with private citizen Trump.  Goofy does your wife make you do it like she made you call me?

Not everything is about Trump.  And if you think that Zelensky is clean as a whistle you are a naive rube of the first order.

Wife asked me an interesting question.....what were you afraid of that you refused to talk to me when I called? She thinks your wife wouldn't let you.

Unlike you, my wife has absolutely nothing to do with my forum participation. Believe me, you would not have had a pleasant conversation had I answered your call.

Answer the questiion. The nature of the conversation is not the question. You are trying to replicate what you accuse Archie of doing....evading the question. The question is why were you afraid to answer the phone when I called to chat with you?

You mention Archie, then engage in his favorite pastime of asking loaded questions.  Like I told him (her?), I don't answer loaded questions.

Considering the source - I am starting to wonder if loaded may have multiple meanings - both the question and the person posting it.
