Thank you.

2. Love Luckovich. This is *exactly* what I was trying to get people to understand back when...

One of these days I’m going to get in real trouble for having a memory for parts of DU history.

First, all people were appalled at the unprovoked and very brutal attack by the Russians on the Ukrainians. Then, as the war dragged on with no conclusion, some started calling for Zelenskyy to capitulate in the name of “peace, “ and just give Putin everything he had already taken or simply destroyed — because I think baby duckies or something were being killed, and kittens were being orphaned.

The “peace at any cost” people never gave up. I kept asking what part of the US would they be willing to cede under the same circumstances, but I must be on some Ignore lists because nobody ever answered that. Haven’t heard from them in awhile, but they’ll show up again. It is so wrong of Zelenskyy to bomb Russian targets, after all.
