So in your mind Russia defends democracy and Putin’s imperial ambitions have nothing to do with this? I guess the Ukrainians should just be glad that they have a man so committed to democracy living next door to them. I suppose at some point President-for-Life Putin will agree to democracy in Russia, too. When did the hopes and dreams of Russian Imperialist become an imperative of American Conservatives?

You can be Conservative at home, yet realize there are certain realities in the world, and that US-style government isn’t for everybody.

questions for you:

Was Viktor Yanukovych elected in a free election by the people of Ukraine?

Was Viktor Yanukovych removed from office using the method laid out in the Ukrainian Constitution?

If your answers to #1 is yes, and #2 is no, then you have no choice but to admit that yes Russia is supporting democracy while our president is backing the rioters and thugs that have taken over the capital.

Since when does the US support the overthrow of Democratically elected officials from other countries? and advocates they be replaced with unelected thugs and rioters?

Don't let your old cold war mentality blind you to what is occurring here.
