Conservatives cheering for Russia's naked aggresion

[tinydancer]

Crimea was given to the Ukraine by Krushchev. It is autonomous within the Ukraine and its citizens are pro Russian.

I believe they are close to 60% ethnic Russians. This is a bizarre situation that Crimea finds itself in. I can see why they are looking to Russia for protection.

They know damn well how anti - Russian the new government is.

Who would have thought one would see the day when the 'Conservatives' would be cheering for the naked aggression of Russia? It seems that if they think that it might in any way be a detriment to our President, they are for it. Even to the extent of cheering for the re-instatement of the old Russian and Soviet empire.

There is a name for this, and it is treason. To work against the interests of the United States and, indeed, the civilized world, is treason of the highest sort. These are the people that would have joined the Bund. An embarrassment to our nation, an embarrassment to humanity.

You people/your people mocked Conservatives during the recent Elections when they warned about Russia. Hardly think it is Conservatives cheering for Russia. Question is, will it be a case of Elections having Consequences or will there be a solid course correction?

I am still mocking Republicans, I don't think Romney is a conservative, over that statement. The question was who is the U.S.'s greatest geopolitical threat. Russia was not then and is not now our greatest geopolitical threat. We are our own greatest geopolitical threat. We are not doing what we could be doing for the economy and we have a non-existent foreign policy. Russia is in the top ten, I will him that.

Americans cheer for all sorts of brutal violent acts. That behavior is not exclusively a Conservative trait. It's an American trait. Although it isn't reported in our corrupt Government/Media Complex, our own Government is murdering a shocking amount of innocent women & children all around the World. Drone slaughters have become common. It's hard to get the numbers though. The Government/Media Complex doesn't want Americans to know the truth. If they knew, some would be outraged. But then again, others would cheer and celebrate. America is all about violence. So the OP's premise is Bullshite. It's not just Conservatives who cheer for violence. Most Americans do it.

As opposed to Saddam's acid baths and starving people so he could build his palaces and military? Depends who you ask but you said nation.

Yeah OK we're killers of innocents but we have right on our side.

Do you even listen to the shit you say?

Face it we are THE most aggressive country on the planet and we delude ourselves that somehow it's OK while we threaten any other country that does exactly what we do.

It was war, dumbshit. In war people get killed. Show me a war where people didnt get killed.
Iceweasel is correct: we are the only country to leave other countries better off than when we got there. Iraq is better off. Japan is better off. Germany is better off. We go to war not to aggrandize ourselves but to help others.
You dont like America? Leave. Head to Iran. I hear they never invade other countries.

it wasn't war asshole.

It was the supposed enforcement of UN sanctions.

it was unfettered aggression in response to no threat to the United States.

Funny I thought we went to war to protect Americans and their rights. The fucking reality is that nothing Iraq did threatened Americans our country or our rights.

Take off your fucking patriotic blinders and look at the shit we do objectively for once in your fucking sheep life.

Was that during his 27-3 season? The best!

Americans need to take a good hard look in the mirror. Do you really have the right to preach about 'Naked Aggression?' Be careful people, don't break a leg falling off your High Horses.

The administration friendly Washington Post remarks that Obama's foreign policy is a fantasy but the bi-polar global warming radical left imagines that the minority party is cheering. What does that tell you about the radical left? They also live in a fantasy world inhabited by the ghost of Saul Alinsky?

It's actually a Saul Alinsky tactic. Obama is a Marxist Saul Alinsky disciple. So go figure. Gots to obey those 'Rules for Radicals.'

Well, it is quite obvious no matter what our President does, you assholes will object to it. If he were to have a way to interject our military into the situation, he is a warmonger. If he and the EU resort to sanctions and economic measures, he is weak.

However, the situation remains. Do we let Putin start the re-establishment of the old Soviet empire? Apperantly, you people think this is a good idea, and are cheering Putin as one of your own.

Pretty much.

It turns out Saddam didn't have WMDs to turn over. But by not just coming out and stating this, he was basically forcing Bush's hand to go to war with Iraq. His hope was that the Middle East (or at least the OPEC nations) would band together and hurt the US as a result once we invaded Iraq and save his bacon. Didn't happen since dollars are more important than decrees.

But if you were to have pointed this out 10 years ago, you would have been called ever name in the book by the right wing loons.

Nothing in Syria or Ukraine is worth a drop of American blood. Nothing. This is merely another faux "crisis" that the right wing orgasms over. You'll note a thread from a week or so ago pointed out some crisis or another in Venezuela. Obama hasn't commented much on this and was called out for not doing so in the thread.

It's hilarious how the right wing thinks that if there isn't a body count, there isn't action being taken.

He did come out and state this. Multiple times. As did Tariq Aziz, as did the Saudi minister, as did many other Middle East leaders and ministers in various governments. They got very little TV airtime in the U.S.

It wasn't a war? You mean those scenes of soldiers, tanks, bombers, snipers etc were all made up? Darn, the things you learn here.

And demonstrating why narco-libertarians and liberals are really one and the same. And why they will never, ever, gain any power in the American political scene.

 

[Redfish]

'faux crisis?' Doesn't look like your Dear Leader, Western Euros, UN, and NATO think it's a 'faux crisis.' Maybe you didn't get the latest DNC Talking Points memo? You're definitely not on the same page. You really gotta watch those rash spittle-laced rants. But i do agree, we should not get involved. This is not our fight.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Does the OP have proof that "the conservatives" are cheering for the Russians in this situation ?

Gee, Candy...ANOTHER "faux crisis"? What's that count up to now? Fast and Furious is faux...the IRS targeting conservative groups is faux...Benghazi is faux...the ObamaCare website debacle is faux...a non existent Middle East policy in faux...million more on Food Stamps is faux...delaying the Keystone pipeline yet again for more "studies" is faux...the worst recovery from a recession in modern economic history is faux...using Executive Orders to bypass the Congress is faux...

Is there anything this President has done that's NOT faux?

 

[O.R.I.O.N]

I am cheering for NEITHER side..I am cheering for Right Sector the nationalists in Ukraine!

they don't need proof, he takes a couple post from someone and attributes to ALL conservatives, Republicans

it's how sniveling lefties always play their game

List all the things that the far left supported the previous president on. Please be specific.
