I am baffled at how countries with millions of voters can elect certain leaders.

Because voters are people and people really aren’t all that bright.

I see some leaked Russian plans have emerged.

It’s a PowerPoint presentation. Jesus, we can’t escape PowerPoint.

Why were grunts running around with what amounts to political intelligence, in addition to the tactical stuff they needed to function? Are the Marx Brothers running the war over there? It's being prosecuted with about that level of acumen.

Did you see his predecessor's handiwork? People lined up behind Biden because, unlike the other Democrats with name recognition, Biden could win.

We elect buffoons to Congress because people don't pay attention. Some of these buffoons then become governors and senators, and they're more credible than someone like Trump because at least they know how the pieces move on the gameboard.

I have had the view for many years that dog owners need to pass a test on animal maintenance before getting a dog licence, and that potential voters need to pass some sort of intelligence test before being allowed to vote.

Sadly we have clowns owning dogs and Muppets as political leaders.

Laughing at the Germans taking Usmanov's yacht. I can only imagine how it's going down across the site.

The power of corruption and propaganda.

Iran are breathing a sigh of relief tonight, meanwhile poor Ukraine have been given a fresh load of sanctions. Biden that.

more of a gallows humour laugh mate, sorry if you missed the intent.

Gallows humour is surely reserved for those facing the gallows?

I haven’t seen it myself but did Biden actually refer to Ukrainians as Iranians today in a press conference ?

Sounds like it for sure, and it was a major address to the nation (not just a press conference), but as I explained below, it is a non-issue. That said, many left/progressive/liberals in the USA don't see Biden as some great leader. To be sure, he is 1000x better than Trump (Biden is flawed, but Trump is just a piece of sh..), but he's not a leader who inspires confidence and is too close to corporations and special-interest money (a "machine Democrat" as they are called). But, nonetheless, the confusion of one word for another is way over-played for political purposes by point-scoring clowns on the right.

Opportunity everywhere...they wouldn't be meeting back up with their comrades, the flat tire hoopty-driving mf'ers.

Sorry, had to let that one out. Seeing crap like this bothers me.

Hah, I'm not up to speed with the personal back and forths. Just making a snarky comment.
