Ukraine being forced to fight with one hand tied behind it's back and the supposedly mighty armies of Russia still can't beat them and resort to terror attacks on civilians.

If the rest of the world wasn't so desperately sucking down oil and had made real efforts to replace oil infrastructure years ago like they were supposed to, then I doubt this war would have lasted long as it has.

We were on the edge of a knife in the 2000 election and if W and a republican SCOTUS hadn't stolen that election we'd be in very, very different times.
