I think I was pretty fair

Ukraine is going to chase Russia's navy totally out of the black sea

Lesson number 1 for us might be that if we want to continue being the world power we are, we need to have a counter for these things to protect our ships if we don't already.

The funniest part about all of UGA's legal issues is your fans thinking certain local media members have it out for you just because they report on this stuff :lol:

If they played like they did in Atlanta they aren’t losing.

If they play like they did in Atlanta the week before last they aren't winning either.

They got two short fields against a team that couldn't move the ball and scored 4 times. The week before they scored 16 points.

I don't really think Bama's defense is all that great right now compared to some of the other playoff teams.

I just don't know what to make of them. Don't think I would bet against them but also not sure I can see them beating an Ohio St, Indiana, or Oregon. I legitimately won't be surprised if they win it all or lose their first game.

Interesting that there was a shift toward "easily agree to this option" between September and December.

I think knowing exactly how the survey was conducted, how the questions were presented, and who was asked would be pretty important in this case. "Hard to say" and "completely unacceptable" both not changing at all is kind of a red flag in a data science sense.

I think we "highly encouraged" them to sign a deal in recent months, absolutely.

Why would wd give them billions in aid and then get them in s bad deal?

---

Maybe current leadership thinks it's a good deal and that Ukraine wont get one as good in the future?

quote:

---

They think defending Ukraine at any cost is just as important as securing our border and improving the economy.

---

Most of them have had politicians telling them for decades that Russia was going to end the world and must be stopped at any cost. The programming is hard coded.

Thankfully that was fictional. But they are very much a sub-regional issue, though imo not one to Europe more broadly.

quote:

---

There have been plenty of people on this board that recommended we do nothing. That opinion had been prevalent here and in these war threads.

---

We have done something. People wanting something in the past done differently can be noted but is irrelevant ultimately. I think Europe should step up and we should focus on things important to us going forward, knowing we have already given plenty to Ukraine.

quote:

---

We can protect our borders and honor our commitments that we’ve made to other countries. It’s not an either or.

---

We have honored our commitment to Ukraine, and then some. The narrative that we haven't is honestly insulting to the US imo.

Also can =/= should. And I'm not sure we actually can... Not because we don't have the resources, but I'm not sure we have the bandwidth. It takes our inept government so long to do anything that isn't pro-Israel that we actually do need to pick and choose what is worth that bandwidth and what isn't.

I think this issue is absolutely worth Europe's. Not as sure about ours.

You're obsessed with what I pay the husband and wife team who takes care of my yard because after I posted what I pay them each time they mow my yard you did the math and realized I pay each of them more per hour than what you make.

---

I'm not obsessed with anything, I'm concerned with your exploitation of immigrant labor. And I would wager that I make way more than you :lol: maybe not counting the disability checks you get since you apparently can't take care of your own house.

quote:

---

The husband has told me more than once that I'm their best paying customer. I doubt they think I am"exploiting" them.

---

So they don't even realize you're exploiting them, makes it even more sad.
