We have a large percentage of the population that wants to see both sides.  And wants to see well produced content.
And here to present the pro-slavery side, former Vice President John C. Calhoun...

Not all sides should be treated as morally equivalent.


Look - over there...

Kid is a little panty twisted. His side told him it would take them three days to win the war in Ukraine. They even brought their dress uniforms. Now he is having doubts they can get his cheese-tard back in the White House with yet another coup. He is even starting to doubt if the south will ever rise again.

'Putin vowed Tuesday that Russia's bloody offensive in Ukraine would continue until its goals are fulfilled'.

#####

Yes, just like Bobo said.

*

'Ukraine said Tuesday it was investigating a claim that a poisonous substance had been dropped on its troops'.

Air power in the form of jet planes would have neutralized the Russian guns and tanks but was quickly taken off the table as an option to help the brave Ukrainians. Putin has nukes and we shouldn't make him angry while he pulverizes the country and its citizens?

We send the weapons that work best for this kind of warfare.  Billions of dollars worth.  Pay attention.

You think it's a wise bet to attack his country in a way that prompts his using nukes, I get that.

Angry isn't the problem. I don't care if he is angry. I care that he is not more irrational than his current level.

But out of curiosity, Luee, how many jets do you think we should send? 10? 100? 1000?

President Zelenskyy is adding his pen to the draft of what history will say about President Biden.

If you want your history from Putin, tune in to fox.

Putin is not gonna nuke anyone unless he sees an existential threat to his Motherland.

He has already lost the war and at this point it is just about killing which in a way was his true objective... the erasure of Ukraine and Ukrainians

Putin will not be losing the war in Ukraine.
He'll just keep bombing, shelling Ukraine for years until he wins.

Families have been wiped out because sleepy Joe held back on planes. A couple of good sorties with missile armed jets and the war is over in a week. Money does not buy courage or integrity just hand held chachkis.
