Putin's biggest accomplishment in the Ukraine.

  Thusfar Putin's greatest accomplishment in the Ukraine, seems to be in pressing Finland, Sweden and perhaps others, to throw in with NATO !

Favorite quote.

Finnish President Niinist�id Wednesday, when asked how Putin would respond to his country’s NATO decision: “You caused this — look at the mirror.”
Ammunition is like firewood. The more you have, the warmer you feel.

I would agree with that. I still think the United States should stay out of it, but the old "safety in numbers" is also  true.
Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times.

...But sadly, not everyone has gotten the word..

  We used to have an old saying in the military.."there will always be about 10%, who just don't "get it"!
