    He initiated the conversation. He said wait until after the election I'll give you what you want. In secret so nobody would know but him and his Russian buddies.

    Collusion=treason=firing squad.

    The level of projection here is jaw dropping..

    Btw, treason is off the table, look it up.

    And Justice seems to hate the idea of prosecuting former presidents. Which is a shame, but Trump deserves it in spades.

    It's called hyperbole. Because libos are obsessed with acting tough about Russia. they identify Russia as a metaphor for anything evil.

    Did you bash Mitt Romney for accusing a combat veteran, 8 year congress woman and a Lt. colonel of treason? Of course not Mitt is awesome!

    Here we have a video of an American president in a conversation meant for nobody else kissing up to Russia when the topic was NATO missiles in Europe. What do you call that?

    In one sentence you are accusing Dems of being obsessed with acting tough..

    In the next relevant sentence, you accuse Obama of kissing Putins butt.

    Before Biden, presidents tried to get Putin to play nice. It was called a reset, and Bush2 and Obama both tried to get Putin to play nice. You may have noticed it didn't work.

    If we leave Trump out of the discussion, foreign affairs was mostly bipartisan. We have hundreds of agreements and treaties. Our political system also gives business massive (and undeserved) influence. Businesses are usually quite consistent in the things they want.

    Biden has done an exceptional job at dealing with Putins attempt to wipe Ukraine off the map.

    I don't care if you agree, just pick a position that's consistent.

    Get serious. The get tough act pertaining to Putin did not start until Trump won the 2016 election. Prior to that libos did not give a rat's testicle about Ukraine or Putin.

    If you catalog Obama's words and positions on Russia as president he is weak, accommodating and secretly colluding with Russia! He made fun of Mitt Romney for saying Russia was a threat. He did not give any military assistance to Ukraine that could kill any Russian. He is on video secretly colluding with Russia and implying he could use some help in the 2012 election.

    By the moronic standards of the left Obama should be executed for treason. There is nothing in the constitution that forgives treason if the person is a skinny gay half black democrat with a macho wife.

    Trump spent most of his presidency with his lips on Putin's behind.

    So, you're saying Bush2 is a "libo"... You wouldn't happen to know English, would you?

    Here's a clue, most presidents don't go looking for trouble. Obama had to deal with a lot, starting with the 2008 crash. Like Bush2, he was willing to deal with Putin. Nobody wanted to restart the Cold War.

    Your pal, Trump, was lying. Obama gave 100 million in nonlethal aid, Humvees, medicine, night vision gear, and counter mortar devices.

    This isn't a forum for kooks. Know what I mean??

    Not even that many.

    Nope, it hasn't. For starters, the USA no longer exists. Additionally, covid-19 in and of itself does not kill.

    Nope... Those people all died of causes other than covid-19. Covid-19 is only, at best, a potential contributing factor, not in and of itself a cause of death (it is never listed on Line A of Section 1 of a death certificate).

    The USA no longer exists.

    Fear mongering.

    You seem to be forgetting about two things, for starters:

    [1] The existence of the innate immune system.
    [2] The existence of natural immunity.


    Vaccines are not necessary.

    I already take basic sanitary precautions. I wash my hands after going #2, and I wash my hands after I come home from work (before I eat my meal). I add in additional washings if I happen to get my hands visibly dirty.

    Liberals (typically Democrats) choose to live their lives in fear (fear of a virus, fear of a religion, fear of a supposedly warming Earth, fear of people making their own choices), and with that fear comes both unhappiness and an urge to control the environment around them (including the actions of other people).

    This is why liberals tend to be very authoritarian, very autocratic, and in favor of oligarchies/dictatorships and tyranny and socialism (all of which they falsely call "democracy" in an attempt to make it all sound better).


    Meanwhile, conservatives (nowadays typically not even considering themselves to be Republicans, as the Republican Party is a huge mess) generally do not live their lives in fear. They are generally happier people and generally are "at peace" with the environment around them, no matter how chaotic it may be or get.

    This is why conservatives tend to be more libertarian than authoritarian, opposed to autocracy, oligarchies, dictatorships, and even democracy (rather, being in favor of a republican form of government under the USA Constitution).

    The worst thing this virus has done is to completely destroy our economy. Today we have shortages and high prices when we have the goods. Reading statistics one gets the impression that victims are stacked like cord wood but the truth is we are largely just getting on with living.

    Bogus article. The only protection against Covid-19 is natural immunity. Show me a vaccine that stops and kills the virus?

    A number of Asian countries used testing and quarrantines to limit the spread. Singapore was especially innovative.

    Your question is poorly formed, and incomplete.

    I don't know what I would do without you examining my sentence structure. But I think you should to ask for help understanding what I wrote. Would it be easier if I translated it into another language?

    Covid revealed our gullibility. It demonstrated both herd stupidity AND the corruption of government and industry, medical tyranny.
