I don't care about Biden saying what he said. He was right and I stand with the notion.

[Stinky The Clown]

Blinken walked it back, which was the correct diplomatic thing to do.

Can we now shut the fuck up and move on?

1. I agree with you. n/t

[Stuart G]

2. I also agree.

4. Hear hear!

Putin is a murderous war criminal. It shouldn't be controversial at this point to say he should be replaced as the leader in charge of the largest nuclear arsenal in the world.

5. When Ali Velshi you are right

You are!

[FloridaBlues]

6. If we asked every person in Ukraine they would agree with our President

In fact most of the world would agree.
The tv pundits and republicans can just release their pearls anytime.

[Buckeyeblue]

7. I agree as well. It was a brilliant warning shot...

[Srkdqltr]

8. It had to be said where it would be heard. Biden knew that.

All the lower government folks and talking heads would not have made the impact Biden did.

[SilverDawg]

9. Agree

10. Hear! Hear!

11. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

12. Yes.

Now we can talk about other, more important aspects of this illegal invasion of a sovereign nation.

Exploding fuel depots within meters of residential areas. Shooting people trying to cross the border to safety. Bombing schools, hospitals, maternity wards, churches (Evangelicals -- are you listening ??). Deploying weapons of grisly death. Murdering innocent unarmed civilians. A death toll that should NOT be tolerated.

Yes, putin is all of the things he was named. Butcher of unarmed, innocents.

13. 👍

[DLevine]

14. Agreed. nt

[TexasBushwhacker]

15. He didn't say he should be assassinated like Lindsay Graham said

Although I don't necessarily disagree with Graham, it was a stupid thing to say out loud. For the sake of Ukraine, the Russian people and the rest of the world, Putin needs to be removed from power. I honestly don't give a shit how it's done as long as it's sooner rather than later, but I would prefer he'd be removed by the citizens of Russia.

[Stinky The Clown]

16. I agree with you completely.

[IronLionZion]

17. Democratic Underground exists to bury Democrats 6 feet underground

so let's gin up as much faux outrage as we can and put on a performance worthy of an Oscar



Look, I don't like gaffes either, but Putin needs to not be in power. I agree with President Biden on either interpretation, whether it's Putin not having power over smaller countries, or his own citizens removing him from office.

[MustLoveBeagles]

18. I agree

[moondust]

19. I'm glad he said it.

And I'm glad there has been a lot of noise about him saying it.

If nothing else it very publicly calls into question the presence of an invader/"butcher"/war criminal at the head of a nuclear power. The idea of Russia without Putin may not have occurred to some who are now giving it some thought.

20. Joe was like a great trial lawyer pushing the rules in a trial to make sure the jury got the point.

He knew exactly what he was doing. Both saying it and having his WH walk it back.

He made a statement. The court of public opinion, er M$M, ruled he was out of order...but the jury, i.e. The People of the World got the message anyway.

Plus he rubbed Putrid's face in it by walking it back - it made what he said twice as powerful.

THIS is how a STRONG effective politician/diplomat works.

I salute President Biden.

[Tickle]

21. It was the rest of the

world that took it as a regime change. That’s why it was walked back
