I lived two years in Communist Poland during the rise of Solidarnosc. It is disgusting to see so-called conservatives praising and extolling a KGB agent. They have no idea of the suffering and destruction visited upon millions by the Russian communists and their lackeys.

I assume that the reason that some of these Freepers hold Putin in such high regard that he is making a fool out of Obama. The problem is that we must live with the consequences. We are very close to hostilities in the Ukraine. And the impact will not be confined to just Ukraine and Russia.

I understand, but I have also heard some Poles express concerns that the “Banderowcy” have too much sway in the new Ukrainian government. And while the Russian propaganda may be exaggerating it to a degree, the facts I see suggest that as a Pole I would be bit concerned about that. Anyone who would consider Bandera as a hero, is as evil as any Russian Communist.

Well, Obama is a fool and he’s making America look weak everytime he does or says anything. He’s a puss.

But post-Communist Russians don’t shoot down people in cold blood.

Its a lot better than the situation in East Germany, Poland and Hungary would have been.

If Russia was still ruled by the Communists, the situation in Ukraine would have been a bloodbath.
