The bar above is so empty, they must have had a chalkboard outside stating that they'd be showing Biden's SOTU on the widescreen.

In #20 buzzsawmonkey said: Meanwhile, can someone explain to me why so many commenters on other blogs---WZ, PJM, Insty---seem to be, if not exactly pro-Putin, oddly unsympathetic to the Ukrainians. I grant you that the Ukrainians have a history of being antisemitic bastards, but that's really not at issue at the moment, and wouldn't be even if Zelensky (sp?) weren't a Jew. I can understand people not wanting to get involved in a tussle with Russia when we've got no small emergency with our own borders, but that is invoked far less that one would expect, and is all but drowned out in the "screw the Ukrainians" mumbling. At the same time, the Left---certainly a lot of the Left-leaning artists I see posting on Facebook---are all drawing sunflowers and sticking Ukrainian flags on their pictures, and somehow contriving to suggest, intermittently, that Trump is somehow collaborating with Putin. A very good question. Of course, the Russians also are usually a bunch of Jew-hating bastards, too. (Putin is the exception, although he is certainly an asshole) Both sides point the Jew-hatred finger at the other, and they are actually both correct, although the President of Ukraine is a Jew.

Reply to Kosh's Shadow in 4: ++++++++++ I'm sure that's much closer to reality than whatever the former Senator from Unaware is spouting now.
