Pfruit’s bff had a neuron-firing event early this morning that produced words, the best words, while sitting on his gold-plated
thronetoilet in Whore-a-Lago:It’s amateur hour 24 hours a day at the White House. Vice President Kamel Toe said sanctions were designed to be a deterrent, then Joe says they were never designed to be a deterrent, he said give them a month. A month when the existence Ukraine is measured in days and hours.. John Kerry is hopeful that Russia will be mindful of their climate change responsibilities. Jen Psaki said the war is proof we need to get off oil and gas. Foreign democratic countries are taking the lead and the US is delegated to “ME TOO” status.
The American people gave you a chance and you failed spectacularly. Even the low information voter can see for their own eyes. Independents have already made a new decision.
I know, I know ……fuck you. “Come on man” give me some love, I’ on the PolCat team. I’m like the designated hitter that “V” is so fond of.
Stay classy, Rublesteltskin. Way to use a misogynistic slur about a woman's genitals to refer to our Vice President. To quote the Ukrainians, go fuck yourself.
I’m sure you are equally offended when your friends call Trump every slur know to idiots. Get over it. This may not be the place for your sensitive demeanor.
We know you were.
Hey Rublesteltskin, average job using your words. Pity they don’t mean anything.
Remember when your favorite former guy abandoned our allies the Kurds to get slaughtered by the Turks?
Or when he ignored the bounty his BFF placed on the heads of American Soldiers?
Now, that’s amateur hour.
And just like that your moment passed. Have you thought just pretending you never heard of Russia or Trump?
I suspect we’ll soon see a Texas stampede of #CornynCopycats
Amateur hour, huh… By this point in his term, Trump’s Sad!ministration had lost
And let us consider the efforts of the Trump Sad!-ministration to determine what they were going to do about the Executive Order that tried to ban foreign nationals. Versions were created
Please bring some civility back here by ignoring Pear. Responding does nothing other than encourage more rants. Give him/her the response they deserve – silence.
Rublesteltskin is definitely male, David, he came to a couple of our meet-ups. He's also a Vietnam vet and I am genuinely upset that he now mans the glory hole for America's enemy, Putin.
??????
Are you confused, Pear? Here's what Voyageur is talking about.
Glory hole – Wikipedia
Yes, PP is a genial guy in person. Online, not so much…like the rest of us. And yes, it is shocking that an old Cold Warrior is taking his former enemy’s side.
Casualties in Ukraine continue to mount. 352 civilians , by the ministry of health count, including 14 children. Depending whom you believe, (Al Jazeera seems credible and well sourced) Russians have few to 4500 dead.
Pfruit is upset that foreign democratic countries are taking the lead. Isn’t that the point? It’s their back yard and we’re the 800 pound gorilla that supports their actions.
He’s proven to be as flawed in his modern war theory as he is in supply chain logistics and holistic crop water management.
“Please bring some civility back here by ignoring Pear. Responding does nothing other than encourage more rants. Give him/her the response they deserve – silence.”
Sorry Dave, this web site is not designed for civility. If it were than every contributor would be required to use their real name and a real picture. You see, that doesn’t work for Democrat propaganda. I have personally met Kwtree, “V”, John from Denver, Skinny. Michael Bowman couldn’t make it that day. In person they are all very fine, fun, intelligent and respectful people, and I count them as friends. I suspect you are of the same character.
As avatar’s they are fulfilling their group think propaganda and have a different agenda. Don’t be offended by the discourse, it’s all political sporting fun. And you might learn that not all people hate America, like the PolCats……….there I go again, sorry.
Group think propaganda? Have "a different agenda"?
really, Powerful Pear? You think we have some sort of common thought process and a singular agenda?? You really need to begin reading a bit more carefully or work on your memory.
Rublesteltskin's reading comprehension is terrible. And so is his memory. He is, after all, a nasty old man suffering frim dementia.
"You think we have some sort of common thought process and a singular agenda??"
Pear is obviously thinking about a different community. Like the viewers of Tucker Carlson's show. Or the Borg.
Argument by insult. It doesn't eve rise to the level of a fallacy.
Ukraine continues to impress and amaze me. They are amazing.
And now cluster bombs – Russia is evil.
Switzerland is freezing Russian assets, ending a long tradition of neutrality. They’re banking system is a haven for Russian mobsters – oligarchs billions. UPS and FedEx suspending service indefinitely. One of the unsung heros in this may be Secretary Blinken and his behind-the-scenes diplomatic work.
The Ethiopian proverb “when spider webs unite, they can bring down a lion” seems appropriate this morning.
I pick this up on Wendy’s Comix. It seems to fit here:https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10159371038610549&set=g.193469627916218
It must suck to be Putin today. The invasion is sputtering due to courageous fighting by the Ukranians and their insanely popular leader Zelensky, most of the world is pitted against you and is sanctioning you, your economy is cratering, and Fat Donny is not around anymore to kiss your ass.
Glory be!
Yes !!!
…and our brave warrior:

There's a credible source of information, the NY Post. What's the matter, Roger? Did you cancel your subscription to the National Enquirer?
As if there weren't an administration between Obama and Biden who withheld a 400 million military aid package to Ukraine, all for some stupid corrupt bullshit reason.
TFG amnesia is strong these days.
NY Pest. Lulz.
I could hear Donnie's mindless question now: "I don't get it. What's in it for him?"
What Putin Wants. Deleted Victory Article from Russian News.
It goes on like that for a while.
How does one go about changing one's user name on ColoradoPols?
Wait! What?!
You are giving up on your campaign to kill off Obamacare?
Yeah, I think the moniker is a little outdated.
Welcome to the dark side.
Go to the “welcome” box at the top of the thread. Click on profile, and scroll down until you see your user name. Then just retype.
You can't actually change user name without reregistering. But go on to nickname, which you can change as often as you like, then click that as the name to be displayed.

Guess who?
On behalf of all Russian citizens who are being robbed in broad daylight…
Demented old man rant of the day from Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA):
What can you expect? He is directing his remarks to his constituents, the cast of Duck Dynasty.
Hell yeah, Clay!! You tell ‘em!!!
Today’s Republican Clown Car is more confused than a two-peckered billy goat.
"a two-peckered Billy goat"
Something that Senator John "Rufus Cornhole" Kennedy could really appreciate.
Apparently a lot of people in Russia want out. What if the U.S. offered a 3 year visa to any Russian with a College education? Offer good for the next month.
That could well devastate their industry losing the best of their businesspeople.
And the message it would give to those remaining in Russia…
“What if the U.S. offered a 3 year visa to any Russian with a College education?”
It would opportunities for Trump to acquire his third Slavic wife.
Although college educated might reduce the pool of applicants.
Rep. Lauren Boebert says, like Ukraine, Canada and U.S. ‘need freedom and need to be liberated’
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2022/02/28/lauren-boebert-canada-liberated-ukraine/
"“I pray for Ukraine, and I wish them the best,” Boebert said in a Sunday interview with Fox Nation. “… But we also have neighbors to the north who need freedom and need to be liberated"
As Mitt Romney said, almost traitorous.
This is what Russia is up against.
To lighten our days, let's just translate PPs blitherings to Yoda talk. Random insults become, umm a sort of blithering wisdom.
We’ve all been there…
🐲😹
Rachel Bitecofer today:
"The Biden Administration has crippled Russia’s economy, strengthened NATO, and has been a steadfast ally for western nations. None of this would have happened if Trump was still president."
To be fair, it's even more due to Putin. Seriously.
Probably true. But still wouldn't have happened if Rump was still squatting in the WH.
Initial pledge of NATO allies to all get to 2% of GDP for military and security was in 2006. Repeated, and stressed as “we really, really mean it this time” after the Russians overran the Crimea and S. Georgia in 2014..
In a single move, Putin has managed to inspire
* Germany to immediately increase military spending above 2%, and pledge to keep it there.
* Other countries to increase their spending, approaching 2%.
* NATO and Turkey to overcome a dispute and increase combined actions.
* Sweden and Finland to more actively consider NATO membership.
Even if there is a military loss in Ukraine and Russia is able to claim “victory,” there will be on-going resistance and sabotage, Plus external pressures. Putin is in a world of hurt.

I can’t get embed to work 🙁
I was going to embed the 2014 song for you, but it was just a vapid pop song. “1944”, from Ukrainian Tatar singer Jamala, won the Eurovision contest in 2016. It was about deportation from Crimea in 1944, but is obviously timely now.
Good song.
Also, how can I embed? I tried switching to source and dropping in what YouTube has for an embed – but it shows nothing.
TIA
The Tube only shows “embed” as a sharing option on my Mac laptop. It won’t show on Ipad or phone. I don’t know why.
From Bloomberg "Money is just a Social Construct"
I guess if Putie gets in a pinch he could auction off his Republican testicle collection??
Or sell the infamous watersports video on-line.
Those sad, shriveled mementos of former glories… Labeled Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio… I think Susan Collins’ spine is in there somewhere, too. And maybe Mitch McConnell’s chin.
