I don’t know why you’d think that disapproval of Putin equates to approval of Obama. Perhaps when a mind is as muddled as that in the first place, one ends up approving of Putin and one becomes a Putinista. I am opposed to both of them; they’re both far from the US Constitution in their views, policies, and actions, and any real conservative views. If you’ve read and thought deeply about government and conservatism through the years, you know that they’re both statist. One of them just throws in some shibboleths as boob bait for Putinista dupes. And yes, Obama doesn’t even pretend to be conservative.
Shhh...Sibboleth. I just can’t say it.
