[ It’s amazing how this guy now takes the Romney position, and Trump supporters now agree with Obama. ]

Well hell, Trump himself has said we need to be careful with Russia, but the Dems have gone “red scare mad” wanting to deliberately provoke Russia for no damned good reason at all.

Democrats in 2012: “1980’s called their want their Russian policy back”

Democrats in 2017: “ Hello, 1950’s, could we borrow some of that red scare from ya for a while? “

I should make a meme outta this...

It’s finally becoming clear that there is little difference between Progressives and NeoCons. Both war mongers.

"Just because somebody is a strategic competitor does not mean you shouldn’t talk with them." Indeed, we must talk to people and nations that are strategic competitors to avoid blunting into another August, 1914 when the inbred royal nitwits of the Hanover/Hohenzollern/Romanoff family failed to of so successfully, causing millions to die. Does Begala really want that with nukes??

I by no means say we shouldn't talk with Russia, or even work with them in certain ways. But during the campaign, many Freepers were glorifying Russia and Putin and saying he he/they were defenders of Western values/Christianity. The Putin butt-kissing was sickening.

They ignored the fact the Putin was only in Syria, because his ally, Iran wanted him to be. Russia was not fighting ISIS, they were only protecting a warm water port and Iran's interest. Yes, Russia is a close ally to Iran. They side with Muslim extremists, and they weren't rescuing and Christians in the Middle East. That was a complete fabrication.

No, we shouldn't bomb Russia, but we should realize they are our enemy and against everything the U.S. stands for.

By the way, many Freepers said Russia would attack Turkey, over the shot down plane, and called me an idiot for saying it would never happen. Turkey is Russia’s ally and a huge trading partner, especially when it comes to oil. Russia never attacked Turkey, and they are once again close. I don’t remember those Russophile Freepers ever coming back and saying I was right.

I thought about calling him that. Does thinking about posting it count?

Only think I can think is the ones who want war have stocks in the arms/weapons business.

Is this the same then-benign Russia that President 0bumba ridiculed Romney for for calling a major foreign threat? “The cold war called, they want their foreign policy back” intoned the Kenyan.

All due respect, but I don't recall it being to the extent of glorifying. Recognizing desirable behaviors by a rival or even an enemy is simply being truthful (assuming that the behavior is not just staged).

And there are damned few reasons for the U.S. and Russia to fight one another. They have their sphere of influence, we have ours; there's a little overlap which, frankly, we should get out of. Let Europe look out for itself this time.

But remember the quote from the colonel in Red Dawn..."Two toughest kids on the block, I guess. Sooner or later, they're gonna fight." Human behavior sucks sometimes.

The Forehead is an idiot. Nobody cares what he says. That’s why he’s on CNN.
