Whoopi Goldberg: Right Supports Authoritarian Putin But ‘We Can’t Even Get You to Wear a Mask’
Breitbart ^ | 02/23/2022 | Pam Key

Posted on 02/23/2022 10:28:35 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Whoopi Goldberg told her co-host Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that a majority on the right thinking that President Vladimir Putin was a strong leader contradicted not wanting the U.S. government to require wearing a mask as part of COVID restrictions.

Tuesday on the Fox News Channel, Tucker Carlson said, “Why do I hate Putin so much? Has Putin ever called me a racist? Has he threatened to get me fired for disagreeing with him?… Does he eat dogs? These are fair questions, and the answer to all of them is no. Vladimir Putin didn’t do any of that. So why does permanent Washington hate him so much?”

***You obviously are not getting the point, which is that appeasement doesn’t work.

“peace in our time” was the very slogan of appeasement.

What I find hilarious is that apparently Ukraine, on the other side of the world, is a national security interest for us.

But if you say that it was a national security interest for Russia you are told that’s just a fanciful excuse.

***EXACTLY. So: AS LONG AS we’ve got APPEAsers running our foreign affairs, we might as well let them APPEASE the Ukrainians and the world by claiming they averted a war by signing a piece of paper of allowing Ukraine into NATO. But since that guy you have been appeasing has invaded Ukraine due to your jackass appeasement policies, it really is too late.

***You really are aggressively pursuing stupidity, aincha? What is in OUR national security interest is to avert outright warfare such as what happened under the appeasement policies against that other local bully known as Hitler, but you are just plain too stupid to see it.

But if you say that it was a national security interest for Russia you are told that’s just a fanciful excuse.
***What are you even getting at? Why do we even put up with Putin buttkissers like you on this website anyways?

From your profile: “I’m a big tent Republican.”

I can see how you develop your ridiculous opinions. You read the first sentence of an article and jump to a seriously idiotic conclusion.

In this case, from my home page:

_________________________
___________________________________________________________________

I’m a big tent republican.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1821435/posts?page=18455
Here’s an analogy to work with. Take a small box and fill it with some rocks. Then add some rice, filling it to the top. Now take all the same stuff, but in a different order. Put in the rice first, then add the rocks.
What you’ll find is that if you put in the big stuff first, the small stuff will fit around it. But if you put in the small stuff first, the big stuff won’t have room. The republican tent is the box. The Big issues are the socon issues, to be put in first. The little issues are things that can be accommodated around the bigger stuff. A candidate who tries to focus on the smaller issues first and leave out the bigger issues has no way of getting all of us into the tent. He splits the party. The candidate who gets the big stuff right and as much of the little stuff that will fit, he can fit more into the tent.
We’re often amazed at how much rice can keep fitting in. Folks such as Rudy or Romney flunk some of the big issues, and on some of the little issues it looks to me like anyone else’s rice would do just as well. All that remains for us to agree on is which are the bedrock principles and which are not.
Why would there be so much invective aimed at rudy or romney from the right? Because there are some bedrock principles that he is leaving out. Bad move. I see rudybot and romneybot postings all the time saying that they would vote for Hunter or Palin, and I see socon postings that say they would not vote for rudy or romney.
That’s a BIG indicator of a few bedrock principles that are being left outside the tent in order to let in some rice.

___________________________________________________________________

That post was first put up on the bugzapper thread. You deserve the same fate as all those anti-socon freepers who self-immolated on that gigantic thread.

Why?
That statement makes you sound vindictive.

I have no idea what an “anti-socon” is.

You don’t define “socon” in the piece. Social conservative?
I’m not sure there is such a thing. There are single-issue voters (e.g. pro-life), there are traditionalists, and there are a small group of fusionists.

I voted for McCain & Romney & GWB, although I have no pride in those votes, and they have continued to betray me and other conservatives many times over.

***It is defined in the thread. You don’t even attempt to find context. You don’t read up.

Social conservative?
***Yes. The fact that you even had to ask is an indicator of how wrong you are.

I’m not sure there is such a thing.
***I am. And if you click on my home page and look for the proposal of ideological matrix you’ll see it was designed to highlight parade jumpers like you. Free Republic is a socon site. No doubt this is a surprise to you.

There are single-issue voters (e.g. pro-life), there are traditionalists, and there are a small group of fusionists.
***And there are parade jumpers like you, standing right beside GOPeRINOs and Assistant Democraps.

I voted for McCain
***RINO

& Romney
***RINO

& GWB,
***Started out as a socon, showed his true RINO colors by his 6th year.

although I have no pride in those votes,
***And RINOs continue to push their Assistant Democrap compadres. We would do far better by just jettisoning the Kennedy wing of the republican party here on FR and in the GOP.

and they have continued to betray me and other conservatives many times over.
***I don’t think you are conservative.

agree-they immediately go to their talking points-non mask wearers bad, MSNBC dredged up some old Trump quotes about how he was praising Putin

so its always Trump bad

the lefties are good at diverting attention-Right after Afghanistan-Joe came out with vaccines mandate speech-and it worked-people stopped talking about the disaster in Afghanistan. Now Biden will try and blame all the raging inflation on Ukraine, completely untrue-its money supply

IF US was still energy independent and exporting oil and if oil was still $80 a barrel Russia would not invade-Putin wrote his dissertation about how oil was the key to building

LOL. I’m to your right.

I’m not interested in reading long pieces from you, which is why I won’t do so, to get context or otherwise. I have plenty of well-written books and publications by authors who don’t feel a need to insult me.

You need to be insulted. Heavily. You aint to the right of me, you are simply a RINO in conservative clothing.

I’ve been here nearly as long as you have, finally signing up in ‘03. I know all about the site, and have met many FReepers IRL.

And I remember when anti-Romney or anti-McCain conservatives were booted from the site because they too were opposed to the Bush wing of the party.

Just because I don’t want Ukraine in NATO. Pathetic.

Just because you’ve been here a long time doesn’t mean you’re a social conservative. You even say you don’t think there is such a thing. There is little reason to listen to you. You don’t even read the stuff posted to you, you’re a pretender, an impostor. You are a poseur.

I’ll throw down on an ideology litmus test against you. It’s not “just because” of this issue, it is HOW you answer and WHAT you say. You are an imposter. A RINO. A GOPe. An Assistant Democrat.
