Clyder, much like Stephen Colbert, the person he is emulating, has grown less funny since he became "serious" (and he wasn't that funny to begin with), again much like Stephen Colbert.
Chris Christie today on This Week with George Stephanopoulos..
Christie's comments about China were smart. He's planning several moves ahead and considering Taiwan. But imposing economic sanction on China would be much more difficult and painful than imposing sanctions on Russia -- so painful, in fact, that most Americans would prefer to let China take Taiwan.Quote:
And China is watching what we do. They've watched what we've done, which I think allowed Putin to have the permission to do what he did. And they're going to see now how we respond and react going forward. And so this is not just about what happens in Ukraine, which, obviously, is vitally important to Europe and important mostly to the people of Ukraine. But it's going to be, what's America's role in the world and how is President Xi looking at what we're doing and how we're interacting and -- and are we tough enough and strong enough to prevent them from getting active now, too.

Little Marco this morning on This Week with George Stephanopoulos..
People calling for a no-fly zone don't know what they're talking about.Quote:
SEN. MARCO RUBIO (R-FL), VICE CHAIR, INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE: You know, the -- look, a no-fly zone has become a catchphrase. I'm not sure a lot of people fully understand what that means. That means flying AWACs 24 hours a day. That means the willingness to shoot down and engagement Russian airplanes in the sky. That means, frankly, you can't put those planes up there unless you're willing to knock out the anti-aircraft systems that the Russians have deployed, and not just in Ukraine, but in Russia and also in Belarus.
So basically a no-fly zone is -- if people understood what it means, it means World War III. It means starting World War III. So, I think there are a lot of things we can do to help Ukraine protect itself, both from air strikes and missile strikes, but I think people need to understand what a no-fly zone means. It's not just -- it's not some rule you pass that everybody has to oblige by. It's the willingness to shoot down the aircrafts of the Russian Federation, which is basically the beginning of World War III.

Also, did he really say "oblige by"?
Made it to Egypt and that wasn’t fun. Wife was questioned for 2 hours on her reasons for leaving Russia. Next stop, freedom land!
