Washington fears losing Greece to Moscow
« on: June 21, 2015, 08:33:31 PM »
Just please tell me this isn't going to be another too big to fail bailout.

"Throughout the prolonged showdown between Greece and its creditors, the Obama administration has largely sat on the sidelines, issuing the occasional warning about the potential economic impact of a default."

"But with Greece now on the verge of bankruptcy, the US is also beginning to worry about the political fallout from a deeper crisis and the potential for Russia to gain increased influence over a Nato member."

They can't meet their debt obligations because they won't make the social spending cuts needed, and they won't enforce their own tax laws.  **** em. Let Russia have them and they will be the next Cuba.

And Michael Moore can make another movie about how Greek healthcare is the best in the world.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

All the Greeks will healthy as horses................because the sick ones died.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

I'll miss those bad old Hercules movies. They were the only export from Greece I ever knew, and even then those movies were only tolerable with the MST3K treatment.

So long Greece. Enjoy your new masters. You've been headed that way for a long time now.

What's all the worry about?  The gays can marry and the producers are now paying for the medical insurance for the non producers. 

Those worry warts in Washington really need to take a chill pill and enjoy the victory they were handed this week.
Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.
