    Hell, this takes a concerted NATO effort and I know they're not up for this, let alone our own government.

    Being proven wrong would be awesome, of course.

    Please love yourself.

      I don't want to offer him a face saving way out.

      I want to crush him, see him driven before me, and hear the lamentation of his women.

          I call you and raise you one - I was the feel the lamentation of his women.

            @jon-nyc you should know - @Klaus doesn't speak Austrian.

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                The problem with offering Putin an outlet is that he will regard it as effete weakness and we ourselves will interpret it as short term appeasement.

                Either way though Ukraine pays dearly.

                    Mongols?

                    That sets a good precedent!

                    In fact, Ukraine was part of Lithuania, so....

                    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
