“this follows Putin’s seizing the Crimea from the Ukraine”
This sounds pretty good if you WILLINGLY forget that a violent coup happened in Kiev immediately before that. One thing leads to another.
” don’t get you Putinista’s? Is it the gay thing? Is that it”
What is with the insults? Can’t defend your position without Jr. High-level name calling? Since when was that allowed on FR?
Most of us understand that Putin is a cold, calculating SOB. A Cold, Calculating SOB who has been enabled by Obama’s incompetence and weakness. Both Palin and Romney tried to warn people like you what was out there, but you chose Obama, instead.
That doesn’t mean you get to forget the facts of this situation, or get to throw around childish insults.
But you would have us to believe that he had nothing to do with Ukraine until the Maidan protests began.

What insult? That is the real reason why some people use to justify supporting Putin. Because Putin opposes the homosexual agenda he has won some limited support in traditional/social conservative quarters. My point was simply because he gets one thing right, doesn't make him worthy of support. Remember that Iran and most Islamic countries also actively oppose the homosexual agenda, that does not make them countries we should support either.
BobL, I think you got your accounts mixed up.
