War also involves guns and as any school board will tell you.....all guns are evil and it's a crime to even simulate a gun with your fingers. Putin may have non politically correct armed forces but the west has a overwhelming advantage in the number of social science degrees, a army of womens studies graduates and human rights advocates and if we really get mad we can parachute in the EPA who have a proven track record in destroying any economy. Gay pride groups are also still angry with him and that alone should cause him to lose sleep. Add that all up and throw in a weenie in chief surrounded by like minded advisors and you just know Putin's show of confidence is a ruse to hide the fear he surely feels. Nope,...there won't be a war but we could take a preemptive strike with a EPA report that delta smelt have been discovered just outside of kiev. That's today's version of shock and awe.

Our? We? Kerry? Canadian?

Wanna take another shot at the bottom line?

Just as Chamberlain's accommodations with Hitler did not cause WWII in Europe.

You should view the first part of your reply within the realm of Sir Issac Newton.

Oh yeah, I should have realized people might confuse politics with physics.

I haven't seen any of the warmongers comfortably hiding behind their keyboards showing any willingness to get on a plane and go over there and lay their lives on the line for either side. Nothing but posing and political posturing, all bluff and bull$hit. Opinions are like asswholes, everyone's got one, some just think theirs are better/bigger than someone elses. Deluded fools abound, and the intolerance of normally intelligent people is disappointing. Don't bother with personal insults as in the end it cheapens your arguments, only makes you look foolish, and will be ignored.

If I call someone out by name and call them a stupid asswhole - that's an example of a personal insult. If on the other hand I describe a group of stupid asswholes, and someone responds by identifying themselves with that group by feeling insulted, then go right ahead and prove my point.

Have a nice day.

Oh come on, what do you really think?

INSIDIOUS · #**128** 03-19-2014, 09:34 PM

I kinda like the way 'a deluded fool' ( you know - not talking about him in particular, but if he chooses to id with it

) keeps claiming to be laying out the rules and what not. Oh damn, I went and broke the smiley law

It is an interesting approach going after wealthy influential individuals at first.

Me too, and deftly targeted. Those gov-connected individuals stand between the Russian citizen and democracy. They also need to target the private citizen oligarchs. Maybe kick their kids out of posh schools in London and Geneva.

…and I think it's great news that Russia is reciprocating. Shoot yeah, target our pols and their masters.

current report from the BBC live feed:

John Doe, Gloucester, England

emails: Just been speaking to a friend in Russia and they have commented on the fact that Visa and MasterCard are being rejected when used for payment. The sanctions seem to be working and the rank and file are starting to feel its effect, but will it do any good?
