Oh, Harry will find something wrong with them. Or, he'll do a spot of plagiarizing.

I suppose it is a start, but I'm not sure what putting "sanctions" on a
bunch of Russian oligarchs is supposed to accomplish. We'd have a lot
more impact on Russia by severely limiting U.S. investment in Russia,
encouraging U.S. companies with investments in Russia to broker them off
to corporations in other countries, to more severely limit exports of
any sort of high technology to Russia, and to sharply cut back on the
number of Russian diplomats allowed back into the United States.

Russia can make a pretty good living just selling energy to Asia and
Europe. I am not sure how much technology they actually need from us.
Remind me again, which country is the only one with a man rated space
program?

Al Gore Sr. would have been penniless if not for Russian investments. Then
where would Al Jr. be?

Al Gore, Sr., has been dead for a couple of decades, and his investments
in Occidental were spread all over the world.

Trump is way ahead of you Fat Harry. You're so focussed on Stormy
that you haven't paid attention to world politics.

Well, if nothing else it shows that Trump is not as in love with Russia and Putin as the liberals,
especially one right here in river city, have been claiming.

I am just saying our ability to actually hurt Putin is fairly limited
and he can afford to wait out anything that does affect him. Like most
sanctions, this falls mostly on the poorest of the population.
I am surprised that the champions of the poor here are so happy with
that.
