Because the US is urinating in someone's bowl of corn flakes every five minutes.

Retaliation is inevitable.

Maybe we should focus on what we can do: end the cronyism in DC and defend our borders. We can afford to do that.

I applaud Congress' willful ignorance!

The #1 problem is overpopulation. Every other problem can be traced back to that #1 problem. Nobody wants to discuss that, because it's political poison.

Fortunately, these are all self-correcting problems. Science doesn't care if you understand it or not.

Pot is illegal here, but I'll trade a copy of "Lawnmower Man - The Game" for DOS, a set of of MSDOS 2.00 source code on 5.25" diskettes hand-labeled by Bill Gates, and a full-height 5.25" diskette drive to read them.

That fulfills your VR jones and your tech-cool jones in a practical way.

Oculus DK-II only, though. That high-latency nonsense is for the birds.

I've donated money to a person who was clearly racist. He probably didn't like gay people either. In fact, I don't think he liked anyone.

Why the hell are LGBTBBQ people so darned intolerant of others? Maybe I was wrong about gay people. Maybe they're hateful and mean when they're not being flamboyantly bi-polar. Maybe I should be very angry with them instead.

Jeez.

So, in short: Apple refuses to craft an iTunes app for Android or Linux. Profit suffers in predictable fashion. And their solution is: try to compete with Spotify.

I'm filing this under "unlikely".

Pro tip: if the US is backing someone, odds are the someone is a really bad person and we're doing it for a percentage.

Tymoshenko wants the 8 million Ukrainian Russians killed "with nukes", according to an FSB-leaked phone conversation with a Ukrainian parliament member. She apologized though, so that makes it all good.

Odd that the US hasn't warned these morons that Russia has an NSA-equivalent, but then, we don't care what they do to each other as long as they pay the interest they're about to owe.

Neocons McCain and Nuland actively took part in the protests in Kiev, and promised the dissidents money from the US and EU that they would/could never deliver.

Broken EU promises of bailouts is why Yanukovich sided with Russia "suddenly and mysteriously": there were 15 billion good reasons to do so. Putin is a thug and a maddog killer but he doesn't play the con-games that the EU and US do.

The US fomented that coup thinking that Russia would roll over, or at most start a huge skirmish and kill a few hundred thousand people that we don't give a rat's behind about. Then we would be able to sell ICBMs and ABMS on credit to people (aka "muppets") that can't afford toilet paper, and Russia would be a step closer to rolling over and accepting ECB/IMF's terms of surrender. It didn't work that way.

Now, Ukraine will be the next Greece/Cyprus and the Ukrainian people will get the rubber-stamp bailout package, and hand over all their wealth to the ECB and the IMF.

Either you're trolling, you're that clueless, or next, you'll say the US had nothing to do with Mossadeq and installing a madman dictator over Iran in 1953.

"A civilized approach would have been to approach the Ukrainian government, asked them for it and offered a pile of money for it"

Which Ukranian government is that? The one that Ukraine elected, or the one that the US installed?

If you mean the former, then I think your condition was already met. If you mean the latter, then you just might be an incurable neocon warmonger with a ton of rhetoric that needs to go somewhere, anywhere, quick as a banker's pocket picking hand.

Yes.

The area these Latinos want to secede must hold a referendum vote, of course.

I fail to see where you're going with this.

Unless you'd have to repeat that process on 300 systems, or wrestle with generating a custom install.

Dude, it's literally 30 seconds to download Fedora 20 and replace Windows 8, like, and such as.

If you believe in democratic process, if you subscribe to liberty, then you must accept the vote whether it wads your panties or not.

The US is playing its "Hypocrite Card" very very poorly.

It makes us look petty and weak to Russia and China, when we're really just following Zbigniew Brzezinski's 1997 book, "The Grand Chessboard" in true neocon fashion. I guess Bushbama can't formulate foreign policy on his own, so he lets the predi-fascists do it for him.

The warmongers are no longer in favor. We The Peeps are done with their ilk. They have the spy network. But we have the arms. We have the rope. Go ahead and side with them.

The Crimeans did vote for it. Yeah, that seems at least as legit as purple thumbs in US-occupied Iraq. Moldavia asked to join Russia this morning. 'Because they fear the US'.

I'm sure Moldavia's fear of the US will make any good bully^H^H^H^H^Hneocon smile, but as a veteran who has sworn to uphold/defend the US Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic, I've gotta say the enemies in DC are a much greater concern than your Cold War Palinesque fantasy invasion.

And this is worse than the US backing a violent coup d'etat against a democratically elected leader.....how, exactly? It's no threat to you or your interests, so I have to ask: are you an incurable busybody, or merely a war mongering debt-addict?

I saw that it's embraced by Blackberry... Nice name-drop! I'm in!
