The reluctance of NATO to widen putin’s war is quite understandable. That policy cannot be engraved in stone. That should be obvious to everyone, even the little putz whose fevered fantasy is the sole reason for this atrocity. [click to continue…]

How could anyone think that putin the putz actually intends to negotiate in good faith? Can anyone cite an agreement he has honored? Negotiation, by its very nature, would give each side something they want. So, it gives him some or all of what he wants. Should he be rewarded for his invasion? [click to continue…]

The first order of business is to use the correct name for the military action that is dominating the news. It is not the Ukrainian War. It is not the Invasion of the Ukraine.

Bought and paid for, this political prostitute refuses to support a bill that he co-sponsored. He is bipartisan all by his lonesome. He supposedly represents the people of West Virginia.
