So we are going to take out Russia?  Are we going to hand it off to the Ukraine or make it Alaska West?  Oil!

If a draft gets instituted, I'm going to be stuck here. I wonder what kind of job I could get? Tom Hanks in A League of Their Own, would that be fun?

Ukraine President made a statement said they did not shoot at any targets.  So....Russians....or Pro-Russian separatists.
