More evidence most republicans are frightened surrender monkeys.

Is your favorite Gator Stalin, or Lenin?

 

The US has been in a proxy war with Russia, a country that wanted to join NATO and be our friend. Partial list of other stupid wars that should have been avoided
Civil war
WW1
WW2
Vietnam war
Afghanistan war
Iraq war
Syrian war
Libyan war

Probably the Korean war but I would defer to duggers_dad on that one

 

Unlike you liberals I would have been hugely opposed to Lenin or Stalin. I oppose communism. Liberals had a hard time criticizing Lenin or Stalin because they were from the political left. Liberals have no enemies to their left.

Now that Russia is led by Putin, (who is profoundly anticommunist) you guys are opposed to Russia.

Not only were Democrats soft on communism, they've done their best to turn the US into the USSR.

My dad was a well known anticommunist whose plan to roll back communism received high praise from Stefan Possony and James Burnham, both of whom had been called the greatest strategic thinkers in the West.

When my dad was a sophomore at Harvard he took 18 hours of classes and taught guerilla warfare for 15 hours.

If you took Americanism vs Communism in high school know that it was an incredibly dumbed down version of a similar course my dad and his friends taught years earlier.

My dad put me on a reading program to learn about Soviet communism when I was in elementary school. By the time I was 14 I probably knew more about communism than virtually any poster here

Unlike many of you I wasn't stupid enough to hate the Russian people for defeating communism. The smart move was to bring them into Western civilization, which is what Reagan and Thatcher wanted.

I suspect that many of you hate Russia because it is no longer communist. Or maybe you and your team aren't hitting on all cylinders intellectually

 

Your problem might be that you're not on my level, to be polite. If you were smarter and more knowledgeable you,'d realize that the avoidance of war is the smart way to go.

Edit: Germany got a raw deal after WW1. German-speakers were trapped in the area of Danzig, a port city. They wanted to be part of Germany again. Hitler took that area back. A settlement could have been negotiated. Instead the US and Britain didn't want to negotiate, which led to a war that killed roughly 50-70 million people. Hitler didn't want war with Western Europe, he wanted Western Europe to unite and fight the Soviet's expansion into central Europe.

Avoiding war within Western Europe was the correct move

 

You know who is winning.

Russia has tremendous diversity. The more diverse a country is the more authoritarian it's leadership must be to hold the country together. Especially when a country like the US is funding Chechen terrorists inside your borders. And of course NATO has been using Ukraine to destabilize Russia.

 

Ukraine started the war, not Russia.

Given that I'm 6'-5" and won a contest to see who the best athlete was in Central Florida, I doubt your old man would be giving me a wedgie or shoving me in a locker. I didn't play football in high school or college but I think I could have played for the Gators. The first QB drafted by the NFL one year asked me to try out for his team. I worked out with him at the Altamonte Springs Recreation Dept

 

Same people same comments

 

If you think I didn't win a contest to determine who the best athlete was in central Florida put some money on it

 

Never heard of a surrender monkey. Maybe a Trunk monkey gone bad

 

Yeah because comparing a fight half way around the world to one on our own shores is apples to apples.

FTR Trump is wrong to pull support of Ukraine and the only peace should come when Russia returns all the annexed lands take from Ukraine in this latest invasion.

I guess Crimea can stay because Obama thought it was okay.

 

Money talks, bullcheet walks

 

I pray we never find out.

However since many MAGA are former military who have actually faced live fire I don’t know that your hypothesis is correct on first blush.
