I doubt Putin's parents even considered giving Vladimir a MUSLIM name.

Very few non-Muslim parents give that name to their kids.

The name..HUSSEIN.........must have meant a lot to Barack HUSSEIN Obama's parents.
Yeah, just like my middle name of Elizabeth proves that I'm a committed 16th century monarchist.

So, xenophobia AND logical fallacies. Got it. Unbelievable that a bigot like you, incapable of the smallest shred of logical reasoning, cancels out my vote in each election.

You get more absurd with each post. Russia is moving inexorably backwards with a crumbling economy. There is nothing heroic about that, especially when the reason for that is incipient fascism. And the United States economy continues to expand, and will do so for the foreseeable future. In fact, the American working age population will expand by roughly 50 million between now and 2050, while Russia will be a shadow of its former self.

Second, 70 million people do not take mind altering drugs. Are we talking about LSD here? Seriously?

Nope. Putin is just accelerating Russia's decline by trying to recapture the country's former glory -- if you can call subjugating other peoples glorious. The convulsions are coming and you are too blinded by jingoism to realize it.

I voted for Obama because I support his policies. That's not true, I support policies far to his left (Bernie Sanders, Warren, etc...) but of the two options he was the only one. Just like I have voted for left-wing candidates in every election, including state elections and off-year elections. You know, because we live in a society.

It's funny how rightwingers and the TPs babble on and on about reducing big govt, but then can barely conceal their hard-on for a strong-arm dictator increasing the power of govt over his people.

But he's enforcing restrictions on social liberties and freedom of expression. That's okay! Morality is absolute and based on tradition and religion.

Jailing people for dissent against his positions? That's okay, too! They love a heavy-handed prison state.

But he allows wealthy oligarchs to rule things in a wildly unequal society. Wait, that's also perfect!

But in all seriousness, the right-wing movement has nothing to do with liberty or freedom or the tyranny of government. Rather, it's about a shrinking and very homogeneous group of people who are losing their grip on what America is, economically and socially, and are trying to maintain their power structures by any means possible.

I would think it would be the left wing anti-religion people who would love those communist dictators.

Seems every communist dictator banned religions and shut down churches.

Left wing gay protestors enter churches during services in order to disrupt them.
Lots of similarities.

Yeah, but when they're protesting the right wing nut who shot an abortion doctor it is okay?

Russia is falling behind, as the rest of the world is progressing towards more equal treatment for all people, Russia is deciding to go backwards. I am sure next they will be discriminating against certain races that Putin doesn't like.
No one in this forum is the gay spokesperson and it is not the same thing as racial issues, plus racial issues have not been solved. Yes, interracial marriage is no longer illegal, but, that is far from the bigger problems. This thread is mostly just people posting one line potshots from one belief to another. Kid stuff. The rest of the world is not progressing towards more equal treatment for all people. It will not happen. Utopia is not in the cards.
