    Which is more concerning?

    Importing, during an eight year presidency, a glut of people from a cultural group that desires all to be subservient to their religion, or simply, at the beginning of a new presidency, expressing a wish for a good relationship with a country that we had excellent relations with just prior to the fiasco in the Ukraine?

    Faulty premise.

    This is neither a strategic or diplomatic approach based on the reality of US/Russian relations.

    I haven't watched the show The Americans, primarily because it is a period piece, but I read an article the other day explaining this is actually based on a Russian sleeper cell which was caught in 2010. The creator of the show placed it in the 80's, precisely because up until just a couple of years ago, the general attitude amongst Americans is that the Russians are our "friends".

    Admittedly, Democrats owe Romney an apology on this one.

    I have no problem with a bit of spying if it makes the Russians a safer country to share the planet with. My understanding is that they tend to be a bit paranoid, and I wouldn't want them to overreact in the belief that the US was up to something lethal to them.

    However, IMO Soros framed Russia in the Ukraine situation--According to an agreement after WWII, the West was not supposed to interfere with Ukraine. Russia had one of its military ports in the Crimea, fgs--it was a set-up by Soros, who counted on US stupidity re. history.

    Soros? What are you talking about.

    Please reference your material so I have some clue as to what motivated you to start this thread.

    What the OP is questioning is the Democratic Party's and President Obama having such great love of the extreme bigotries, anti-secularism, mysogyny, homophobia, xenophobia and intolerance of the ideology of ME Islam that they want to import hundreds of thousands such people to the USA to influence our elections and culture to promote such values - while at the same time want to go to war against Russians because all Russians are fundamentally evil - so evil is should be a federal crime of treason to even just talk to a Russian.

    President Trump has the opposite viewpoint.

    That is what the OP is about.

    You will have to look to other threads in which this is discussed. Thee is an ongoing discussion in here about all of this.

    Your opinion does not automatically make someone else's "ignorance based rubbish"...

    A strategically planned occupation of most of the Christian West by a group holding an antithical belief system is also not rubbish; it is treason. Nothing anyone could "conspire with" Russia about could possibly exceed it in downright nefarious plotting--yet the Democrats support it,,,to garner votes? Treason on the highest levels.

    At least you chose the appropriate color to highlight this nonsense.

    IMO it is never worthwhile having a discussion with someone that is simply trolling....

    Absolutely. As usual, the inconsistency and hypocricy are colossal.

    I figure what you're talking about is how the country fell apart when we bought Catholic Louisiana and started letting the Catholic Irish in in the 1840s

    We lived in a Catholic-dominated neighborhood when I was a kid. The local priest instructed all the other kids in the neighborhood not to play with non-Catholics.

    I would still rather be raised in a Catholic-dominated neighborhood than one where Muslims dominated and the local Muslim leader said it was OK to rape Dhimmis.

    I did not say that you were trolling...I made a general statement of how to deal with the phenomenon.

    Did you apply it to yourself?

    The democrats love for Islam and hate for republicans is fascinating considering one of the key reasons is due to supposed bigotry and racism from the right. But when you compare it to the world wide and fanatical bigotry and hate spread by Islam, the logic Democrats use to defend Muslims is mind blowing.

    Logical inconsistency almost totally invalidates that whole world view.

    It also leaves me wondering what the true core agenda is. It goes beyond simply getting more votes, IMO.
