| #19 As the first says, "Okay?" and her uptalking fades, I inquire of the second, who thinks I said "AIDS." |

| #18 CBS News poll found that 67 percent of Americans want the United States to give aid to Ukraine. "It's true, man! Two of the three people we asked about supporting Ukraine said 'Yeah, whatever' and the third one was a flat 'No effing way!'. Two thirds is 0.6666666666666666 decimal, rounded up is 67%. You can't argue with facts, man!" |

| #17 #16 But the same nym wrote in article on drug testing This is actually good. The more incompetent the US military grows, the less good they will be in a fight. And the last thing we need right now is another fight. |

| #16 ^ I think "smoking the good stuff" more likely. |

| #14 US soldiers on the ground will absolutely change the face of this war. The Russian army has already been decisively weakened and they're running out of healthy, non-tuberculosis men. We'll be in Moscow a few weeks after US troops arrive in Ukraine. Regime change, and a major threat to the entire rules-based order is gone. |

| #12 It's no surprise that people who are dumb enough to watch CBS are dumb enough to support Biden's little adventure in Ukraine. |

| #11 Polls. Studies. "Some say." Yeah. You can get whatever result you want. See: The ubiquitous "I'm a Republican who would never vote for Trump" stories. |

| #9 "BE BOLD Sending advisers to Ukraine will, of course, require substantial political will on the part of the Biden administration. Biden may struggle to muster such will, especially as he prepares for the 2024 election and faces political opponents much more hesitant to aid Kyiv. But Biden should not underestimate the ability of Americans to grasp why it is important to support Ukraine. It is true that recent polls show that U.S. support for Ukraine has fallen, but the dip is slight and to be expected over any long intervention. On the whole, support for helping Kyiv remains remarkably strong. A September CBS News poll, for example, found that 67 percent of Americans want the United States to give aid to Ukraine."

| #8 I thought that Ukrainian troops were already the most baddest assest, whip all comers with one hand tied behind the back fighters on the planet. Now with Nazismâ„¢ added! What could "advisors" possibly bring to the table? |

| #7 /\ Yes indeed. Worked out so well that the 'Zonies' ("Americans") living in the Panama Canal Zone were reluctant to assist our pre-invasion logistics planning. It seems they were fearful they might be left high-and-dry should events NOT result in the removal of General Manuel Noriega. Some things, they simply do not change. |

| #6 That worked out so well in Vietnam. |

| #5 Advisors escalate the conflict without a chance of changing the outcome. Also all the most corrupt people are recommending the action. Other than that it is a good idea. The only advisor I would approve of would be Sam Kinnison if he was still alive. |

| #4 Not sure future tense is appropriate. |

| #3 American involvement in Afghanistan and Ukraine should prompt a high-level investigation into motives, finances, and long-term geopolitical impacts. All overseas deployments should be closely scrutinized. 'Anomalous Sources' graphic is yet another reason for policy examination. |

| #2 No, just no. Zoom works just as well nowdays. |
