You are going to keep hearing about this whether you like it or not because it’s going to be a major issue in upcoming elections for years to come. Conservative Republicans will keep raising the issue of how Obama’s cowardly weakness has encourages Neo-Soviet Russia’s revanchist aggression. Liberal Democrats will defend Obama’s record of failure and capitulation.

I think you are right. My point is that we have real issues to worry about instead of making good nations into evil straw men. As a Republican, I am extremely upset with my party using Russia as a punching bag.

Russia is not a good nation. Russia is an evil tyranny and is America’s worst enemy in the world. KGB Putin is a terrorist mass murderer and a war criminal.

Somebody probably already brought this up, but at the time, the German’s invading the Sudetenland was probably not an issue either, and others may have pointed out that the Tories had bigger fish to fry that carping about the Germans and their adventurism.

History rhymes, you see.
