I think he is right.. The party has hit a dead end. I considered myself somewhat liberal about ten years ago but Obama has changed it all for me and never again will I go back to that party.

Anyone else agree? Disagree? Lets have a nice discussion without insulting each other

I do not know exactly what Putin said but I think the premise is correct.

The Democratic Party of the New Deal, the party that used to look out for middle and working class people is now dead. Its gone to the extent that they insult them and call them names like rednecks and "deplorables".

They were happy before this whole western backed war stated by Obama. Why doesn't CNN show this? All they show is war casualties to make you believe that intervening in a foreign conflict is our national duty. Theres two sides to every story. Its your decision to research which one is BS and which one is truthful.

I think he is right..
Putin & Trump are upset the Dems are pointing out the fact that Russia played a role in the elections and they are trying to turn it into an issue about the Dem party. Not surprisingly Trump and his supporters rally around every word Putin says. The more of this Putin/Trump alliance I see, the more concerned I get. This is not going to end well.

Did you ask the majority of citizens in Syria? It sure looks like you just watched an RT propaganda video, and swallowed it hook, line and sinker.

Are you under the impression the people in Aleppo appreciated Assad and the Russians bombing the heck out of their city, and the people?

How about a BBC video? Is that good enough? I can get western media outlets if you prefer. BBC is the CNN of Britain.

If Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the US weren't funding and arming ISIS they wouldn't have had to bomb Aleppo.

What a lot of PC , MSM outlets and their followers don't understand is WAR is WAR. Please tell me since World War II a instance where entires cities were not bombed with civilians in them? War changed after the Blitzkrieg in WWII. The Unisted States bombed the entire city of Dresden in World War 2 killings hundreds of thousands (not exactly counted) . Even when the war was practically over. The USA didn't face any war crimes for that...? Did they?

Do you actually think Assad wants to bomb his own people on purpose? No he does not. Terrorism is the hardest form of war to fight. People do not wear uniforms. They blend in with the civilian population. If a city is the front line and there is a war being fought there. There will be casualties....Geesh....
