Almost 70 years ago we triumphantly raised our flag on Iwo Jima and shortly thereafter we nuked the yellow bellies in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Now we stand helpless as some braindead Ukrainian rebels stare us down at the site of the murder of 298 innocent civilians. And the fear of the braindead Hamas morons and their " go everywhere, land anywhere" missiles scares us off landing civilian aircraft in Israel. What a pathetic era for America...otherwise known as the Obama years.

Naw, I'd say we've been in decline since the 50's. Most certainly since Kennedy was shot.
 
We have been in the decline since we decided we were the world's police force, and first sent young men to die in Korea. Democrat or Republican, it doesn't matter, fear swept across this nation's politicians and people after WWII, and suddenly we couldn't help getting involved in everyone else's problems.

It wasn't fear, Mary...it was confidence, determination, values, and a sense of strength and mission. Not well executed, for sure...we failed to make use of our dominance.
 
There is no military alternative in the Ukraine. Any war by NATO is a war against the Russians. It's already a red hot proxy war that we helped create. The only thing you can do is freeze Europe and hope for the best. Tough times for the Europeans in the winter, but they're the ones dependent on Russian gas which makes the current issue more daunting.

Bloomberg is dog shit. He should be executed for his nanny state bullshit and his affront against the 2nd amendment.

I only said he was a real Jew.
 
It's one thing to talk about "military alternatives"...it's another to realize that you don't have the balls to put an operation together to deal with the crash site. A warning call to Vlad to stay the fuck away...then exterminate all rebels in a safe radius...

It was fear, fear of nuclear annihilation, fear of the Russians, fear of the great unknown, fear of losing more sons to another world war.

Please, tell me why we were in Korea? What was our actual mission? How did that affect America? Same with Vietnam, The Persian Gulf, Afghanistan. The true war is going on here at home. We are being invaded every day, and there are very few who even care anymore. Will they care when the next tower falls? You know it will happen, those that don't believe it, will be the ones denying that it ever happened afterwards.
 
CNN now reporting that the missiles that shot down the Ukrainian fighter jets today came from inside Russia. Vlad delivers another kick in the nuts to Obabble who will be in Frisco tomorrow with the rest of the gay folk.
 
For those just joining this conversation, let me provide you a quick synopsis of the prevailing attitude thus far: "Putin is hot!"

Discuss.

Guess who instituted the ban on travel to Cuba because "Oh no, dirty Commies"? Not President Obama.

Guess who's lifting it? President Obama.

President Obama is the kind of brave new leader this world needs. You're just butthurt that it's him doing it and not a Wrongpublican ideologue.

Ahh, I didn't catch the sarcasm. Sorry.

What did those Russian backed Ukrainian rebels do to us?

How many attacks on America has Hamas made?

Why do you think all of the worlds problems are OUR problem?
