Why Should I Care?


During the US Presidential campaign of 2008, Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin warned us that if Senator Barack Obama were elected President, his "indecision" and "moral equivalence" may encourage Russia's Vladimir Putin to invade Ukraine. Well Obama won and became President, then in 2014 he sat back and watched as Putin rolled into Ukraine to take the Crimea. 8 years later his former Vice President and now President, Joe Biden, is sitting back as he watches Putin finish the job by invading Ukraine again.

My heart goes out for those suffering from a war they themselves never wanted, yet we all must live with the consequences that come from those who lead us. In the United States, we have Beavis and Butt-Head runing our country, and I actually believe equivicating them with those characters is an insult to them. Weel, I sadly must admit that I am so on the fence on this Russia vs Ukraine war that I find it difficult to get upset anymore. I mean, Look at the way the United States goes from one extreme to the other in how we deal with both our allies and enemies. Depending on which political party controls the White House, can mean the difference between freedom or subjugation for us and our allies. Is it any wonder, many like me find it difficult to even care anymore?
