    Lol @ your team = conservatism.

    I guess your idea of being on a team is to shit all over your own.

    Better you own your flaming libby colors, than keep pretending to be something you categorically are not.

    As for Ukraine Russia--converesely, i ask: why then do yall equate ambivalence and resistance to spending on Ukraine, with support for Russia?

    If i pollute my avatar with Ukraine blue n yeller, and still remain ambivalent about the war and resist spending, will that make me groovy with the libbies?

    Plank posted about how our involvement in the war was driving India, China and Russia together, to trade with each other in non- dollar currency was a huge mistake.

    You replied that cost/price was no issue agsinst right vs wrong.

    = you advocating for our spending (on Ukraine), bc it's "right" (and Russia v Ukraine = right v wrong).

    Please may make $1,000 donation to St. Jude Cancer in lieu of payment to me.

    Colonized countries benefited economically. For the colonizing countries it was the opposite. Per Molton Friedman based on math performed by one of the founders of the Univ. of Chicago's school of economics

    Not really. Thete's a lot of Scandinavian blood in Greenland's Inuit. Some have blue eyes. I don't see how they'd be better off with a couple dozen mosques

    Yeah, third hand accounts of somebody not even named. On the other hand, here is actual research, utilizing methods to deal with selection bias.

    Derp. That this a terrible logical conclusion. From that response poster might be assigned as having a position on international fiscal policy, but absolutely can't be held to advocating for US spending on aid to Ukraine.

    Wow, this is dark. To find "enthusiastic" Greenlanders to back them, Trump Jr. just bribed a bunch of homeless people with food to put on hats and pose in a picture with him.

    Seems on brand. Enjoy sanewashing that one...

    History will repeat itself.... Alaska was once Stewards folly. Greenland is more than just strategic in a military level investment. If the people want to make a deal with Trump, then so be it. We all know the Chinese and the Russia are snooping around their land and right now we all Greenland has.

    Denmark's military is a joke. And so is European NATO without the U.S.A. Plus we already have an American military base on Greenland. I think we can and will strike a deal with that nation.
