I would be/am embarrassed by either. The sudden love for the Russian Tyrant is utterly befuddling. We love Putin because he ride a horse and O”Dimwit doesn’t?
This trend to love ANYTHING that is anti-O’Dimwit is proving to be our undoing and will kill conservatism faster than anything.
It’s mostly snarking.
However, if it’s Hillary vs. NJFatboy in Nov 2016 I am writing in Putin.
It is befuddling, as you say. A Russian dictator, and some conservatives are in awe.
“We love Putin because he ride a horse and ODimwit doesnt?”
No, we love Putin because he ride a horse and Obama cannot spell horse without a TelePrompTer.
Look at it this way: In reaching down into the hull-crushing abyss of mockery and ridicule searching for an accurate description of the oxygen-stealing traitorous pile of steaming Demonrat deposited in the Oval Office, sometimes it may appear that there is some kind of affection for the current low-life Commie-KGB tyrant-scum-of-the-earth President of Russia.
Captain James T. Kirk: He was the best of the tyrants and the most dangerous. They were supermen in a sense. Stronger, braver, certainly more ambitious, more daring.
Mr. Spock: Gentlemen, this romanticism about a ruthless dictator is...
Captain James T. Kirk: Mr. Spock, we humans have a streak of barbarism in us. Appalling, but there, nevertheless.
I have felt that also. Putin is former head of KGB and a tyrant like bama only wishes he was. I believe what many conservatives actually like about Putin is his transparency. Everyone knows exactly what Putin is doing. He always does what is best for Russia. I wish I felt the same about O.
