Of course Putin must go. Any fool can see that or should we wait until he has killed as many people as Stalin. Not to mention the pain and suffering he has inflicted on countless numbers. The Russian journalists I saw on CNN this morning think so yet ours have their hair on fire. There is such a negative push against our president. This Week opened by asking the Ukrainian minister what we were doing wrong. FRankly, after a sampling of all the the biggies I just feel like smacking them. Petreaus was the smartest of them all and I bet even he was not telling all he thinks because while the statement is being described as a JOe gaffe, I think it was an absolutely directed message. And don't forget how hard tried to get rid of Joe.

But you're probably right that Biden's statement wasn't a gaffe. But it was a mistake to say it.
Imagine how elected leaders all over the world reacted to hearing that

So were supposed to get all excited because Biden hinted he wanted Putin out of power. What the hell has Putin been working toward in this country?

Like Reagan's internal ops, I think Pres. Biden has some inkling that Putin is facing significant internal discontent. Putin holds power through the military which he is sacrificing without care - without a clear end game. There has to be a limit.
