Why would the U.S. withdraw from Ukraine? At a cost of less than 10% of an annual defense budget and with no troops deployed, the U.S. has significantly weakened the Russian military. This situation appears to be a favorable deal for the United States. Moreover, Ukraine's efforts have reportedly led to the destruction of approximately 50% of Russia's military capabilities, forcing Russia to spend over $150 billion on military replenishment. . The strategic benefits for the U.S. include not only supporting an ally but also degrading a major adversary's military strength at a relatively low cost Maintaining support for Ukraine seems advantageous for the U.S., both in terms of financial investment and geopolitical strategy.

Which goes to prove the point I was making.

I bet Kamala can't do the "weave" “You take a look at bacon and some of these products, Some people don’t eat bacon anymore. And we are going to get the energy prices down. When we get energy down — you know, this was caused by their horrible energy — wind, they want wind all over the place. But when it doesn’t blow, we have a little problem.” “If I’m sitting down and that boat is going down and I’m on top of a battery and the water starts flooding in, I’m getting concerned, but then I look 10 yards to my left and there’s a shark over there, so I have a choice of electrocution and a shark, you know what I’m going to take? Electrocution. I will take electrocution every single time, do we agree?”

I remember the Takara on Patpong from the 80s. Up the stairs, turn to the left.

The most direct method for using two high-speed internet connections on a home network is to install a router specifically designed for this purpose. Multihoming routers feature two or more WAN interfaces for internet links.

"Sympathetic to Terror in America" Sounds like a good name for a rock band.

Y'all looking at all wrong. Most of the folks coming in will fund the SSA and Medicare into the next century. If a few baddies get in we'll deal with them, as always.

dump her and find an orphan. Worked for me. 25 years and still blissful.

back in the day (mid 90s) we bought No2 cylinders from a local dental supply shop. Good times.

the spot y'all talking about is not Thermaes. It's (or at least used to be) the Constellation, a coffee shop. Thermaes is the massage parlor above. I haven't been there since the 90's. The entrance used to be through the toilets in back. Best after-hours pickup spot in the town.

Its a marketing gimmick.

Same here. I tried to quit after 60 years. My wife gave me a month and then INSISTED that I resume. Must be something in the air...

"The U.S. as the 'World Police Force'—half-baked interventions, God-tallied elections, and a rinse-and-repeat cycle. Cha-ching! But beneath the bravado lies complexity: oil interests, regime changes, and central banking. We're no saints, but critique without solutions is noise. So, critics, what's your playbook?
