Pushing a Christian line, even if it is not sincerely, is a better deal than attacking Christianity on all fronts.
I don’t know why Putin’s intentions are anyone’s business in America.
Bottom line is US has managed to establish a unique socioeconomic system at the time, but going to blow it hijacking a sort of Commintern from the Soviets after their collapse.
Yet, instead of fighting for the Republic and holding your governmeent accountable for sprearing economic and cultural socialism at home and elsewhere, people are questioning a foreign leader’s values, are they sincere or not.
Being a ‘thug’ or a ‘false Christian’ Putin does a better job for freedom by just publicly calling to faith and criticising Marxism than all the Western politicians who are pushing for Islam, welfare state and homosex, even if he is not sincere.
"Isolationist card"?
Your democrat cliche slinging makes my point for me.
I haven't seen a single FReeper make the sort of exaggerated claim you attribute across the board to those who disagree with you. More tactics straight from the democrat playbook.
Those who characterize others as "socks puppets" and "Putinistas" for wanting to limit ourselves to our own strategic interests rather than helping the EU save face are the ones on FR behaving like shills.
Not a single one of the whole mudslinging, "play the isolationist card" cliche slinging, gang of dolts has made or can make a solid case for why the Ukraine is vital to our national interests.
"Don't start with me"?? LOL, Ok, Mommy, Daddy warned us about how you get this time of the month.
Vlad stands for Christianity, Anna Chapman, and the Renewed Russian Empire! In reverse order.
