Is it the "Putin cannot remain in power"? -- BocaHoo91 03/26/2022 3:50PM Yes...but the white house is vigorously walking it back. ** -- orangenblue 03/26/2022 7:28PM Some would suggest this is having an adult as President again. -- Hoodafan 03/26/2022 3:04PM And yet you would have loved the same words coming out of Reagan’s mouth. -- TomGlansAski 03/26/2022 4:17PM "We start bombing in five minutes." ;) ** -- Seattle .Hoo 03/26/2022 4:20PM I place the odds at 8 to 5 or 2 or 3 of 5. ** -- Wahoo Gus 03/26/2022 3:44PM I had it at 25 or 6 to 4 ** -- Mad Bowl Hoo 03/26/2022 4:24PM You wouldn’t know an adult leader if you saw one.

Referring -- orangenblue 03/26/2022 2:57PM It seems consistent with recent remarks, so not all that surprising. -- Chuck Taylor 03/26/2022 3:19PM Well, they’ve walked it back. ** -- hooshouse 03/26/2022 2:46PM That comment won’t walk back ** -- WaxHoo 03/26/2022 3:18PM Why do they even feel they need to?

This -- Seattle .Hoo 03/26/2022 2:51PM Did the consolidation all occur in the last 14 months? -- orangenblue 03/26/2022 2:59PM No, but it's one of the factors in why things get ratcheted up.
