Hal 9000 Posted May 17, 2017 Report Posted May 17, 2017 57 minutes ago, kimmy said: Are you sure? I seem to remember a lot of concern when Russia invaded Crimea and started lining up troops on the border with Ukraine. Given increasing Russian aggression towards eastern Europe and increasing Russian influence in the Middle East, I think it's clear that yeah, Romney *was* right. Given Russian actions of the past few years, what's the basis behind this new Republican notion that the Russians are actually fun and friendly? Aside from trying to justify Trump's bizarre appeasement of Putin, what is the motive behind this new effort among the "right" to reimagine the Russians as the good-guys? Russia had the right to take over Crimea? Aside from "might makes right", which right are you referencing? Stephen Harper certainly didn't think Russia was right to do so, and told Putin so in person. Snowden was such a "meh" that Trump himself was calling for Snowden's execution for giving "serious information" to the Russians. Obama's handling of Syria certainly bears criticism, but given the long-standing American tradition of picking sides in proxy-wars in key regions, I don't think he's much different from his predecessors. -k The people of Crimea seemed ok with the change. Also, Russia doesn't have an extradition treaty with USA and Canada even with one wouldn't send Snowden (or anyone else) back knowing they could face the death penalty. How many Vietnam draft dodgers are still here? How many did we send back? Quote The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so. - Ronald Reagan I have said that the Western world is just as violent as the Islamic world - Dialamah Europe seems to excel at fooling people to immigrate there from the ME only to chew them up and spit them back. - Eyeball Unfortunately our policies have contributed to retarding and limiting their (Muslim's) society's natural progression towards the same enlightened state we take for granted. - Eyeball

How long ? Until Trump is impeached and found guilty in the U.S. Senate. Don't hold your breath in Canada waiting for that to happen. Remember Bill Cinton ? He had great hair, and Canada loved him so much ! Clinton was impeached too, but still served two full terms, and got to keep banging his mistresses. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
