(62,325 posts)country into several disastrous wars, that makes them a Putin Supporter??
Which must mean that when people here on DU did the same thing after 9/11, pointed out the lies and deceptions of the neocons, that made them/us Saddam lovers?
This is interesting. Telling the truth about Bush/Cheney was diverting attention away from legitimate criticism of Iraqi policies?
Did you divert attention from Iraqi policies as we did and point out the lies of the neocons back then, or did you support Bush/Cheney's wars?
By that logic, if people who are doing exactly as they did re Iraq, are Putin lovers, then we get to call those refusing to look at the evidence of the lies being told once again by the neocons, Nuland et al, Bush/Cheney lovers? Because this is exactly the same thing.
Iow you can't have opposed Bush/Cheney and go on to support the same neocon FP in Ukr without expecting to be called neocon lovers, can you?
I mean if people are going to go around calling good DUers who are doing exactly as they did re Bush, Putin supporters, then those of us who are going to keep pointing out the lies, can call those supporting our intervention in Ukr, Neocon lovers.
For the record, since you could not be more wrong, I don't give a rat's ass about Russia, we don't live there, it's not our problem, it's Europe's problem. WE LIVE HERE and we are being dragged into every war the neocons can find to use our military for, to enrich themselves and their buddies.
And that is exactly how I felt about Iraq. And yes, I was called a Saddam lover by Neocon supporters. I expected this from the right, here, on DU? I never expected it.
