Go on record and we'll mark the tape. Okay you're right, they're secretly engaged in a hot war with Russia and the only proof of that are the gut feelings of a guy that looks like this
August 11, 20232 yr 4 minutes ago, VanHammersly said: Yes. Of course they are. They're president of the same country, you absolute moron. You realize that right? When you sign a deal with another country that lasts for a decade or so, there's a very strong possibility that the other party will take control at some point. Trump tore up the deal. Unfortunately, he F'd up our credibility as a country. Sucks but again, that's why you never elect a game show host to the most powerful position in the world. Theyre two entirely different administrations. Thats like saying the Biden and Millard Fillmore are the same country so the former cant undo or change anything the latter ever did. We're not talking about a constitutional amendment.

Jesus Christ, Mike. Do I need to explain to you how the passage of time works? Would it help if we brought out a calendar? The deal was for 10 years. That 10 years spanned 3 administrations. The one in the middle tore it up. Why on earth would the Iranians sign a deal with us again if it's just going to be torn up by the next administration before it's complete? I feel like I'm explaining algebra to my 7 year old daughter.

Because time continues Mike. Presidential terms are 4 or 8 years. After that, there will be a new President that, if that President is a Republican, is guaranteed to tear the deal up because of your feelings.
August 11, 20232 yr So are you all now coming to the conclusion that it was a stupid deal in the first place? I guess the Dems thought they'd just hold onto the presidency for 3 consecutive terms? The entire deal hinged on that?? Somehow this is the most complicated thing ever, even though we see administration after administration come in and tear up old deals and start new ones, literally every single administration.

So why did they sign an agreement knowing the next administration could just tear it up? Was that smart?

August 11, 20232 yr 22 minutes ago, Mike31mt said: The Lend-Lease Act was signed into law on March 11, 1941, and ended on September 20, 1945 Regardless of the dates, this whole notion that WW3 is some far-off theoretical notion is garbage. This slow drip and entanglement of dozens of nations on either side is exactly how both World Wars started Introduced in 1940, passed in 1941. Before that, we aided the UK through things like the destroyers for bases deal in 1940. You keep talking about the UK being an ally and conveniently ignoring the USSR, which was clearly NOT an ally. Lend-Lease was immediately extended to the USSR when Hitler invaded in July 1941.

Are you going to admit that or continue beating around the bush to protect Daddy Government? What part of there are no troops stationed in Ukraine that are actively engaged in combat don’t you understand?

No, it hinged on Presidential Administrations being run by base-level competent adults. But once Trump came along, that was longer a requirement for the office.

"Not actively engaged in combat"...but just in case they do get injured or killed, they have hazard pay. Its like a paradox, maybe.

August 11, 20232 yr 2 minutes ago, Mike31mt said: So why did they sign an agreement knowing the next administration could just tear it up? Was that smart? Because that's how every deal we've ever been in works. We're in charge of our own country and the President has the power to leave deals. Why are we talking about such obvious sheet?
August 11, 20232 yr 1 hour ago, Mike31mt said: This might be the most libertarian thing youve ever posted. No big deal, I have but one life to give for Ukraine. What else can I do for Daddy Government??? Take my whole paycheck please! Actually keeping the world free from tyranny is the most libertarian concept ever. Trump spent 15 billion on a wall that Mexico was supposed to pay for and obviously doesn't work. He drove up 3 trillion, (with a T) in overall debt. I'm not even personally affected by that either. Stop pretending to care about government debt, you don't. You don't want to send money to help Ukraine because the right wing talking heads you pleasure yourself to want Putin to win.

Its like a paradox, maybe. Do you realize that troops that during OIF, troops in Kuwait and not actively engaged in combat received hazard/combat duty pay? Do you realize that there are troops stationed in the US who qualify for hazard duty pay? I When someone refers to boots on the ground in a country at war, they are usually referring to troops actively engaged in combat.

Lets keep sending billions and billions to Ukraine for a perpetual proxy war, what could possibly go wrong? Peak libertarianism in here recently. Your ignorance of history knows no bounds.
