Are liberals who are against the Iraq war the American equivalent of 'Boko Haram'?
They would rather no democratic elections take place in Iraq, have a totalitarian dictatorship in power, that girls are still not allowed in schools and that gays get executed.
Liberals are partying like it's 760 A.D.

9 AnswersPolitics7 years agoDo people actually believe rich donors excuses for massive campaign donations?
Like Tom Steyer is donating $100 million this election cycle for the 'environment'... oh yeah sure.
Or Sheldon Adelson donated gave nearly $50 million in 2012 because he 'loves Israel'.... riiiiight.
Do people actually believe that is what they are giving money for? I guess cronyism can be done right in front of our faces as long as they purport that money is for a "cause" other than crony kickbacks.
2 AnswersPolitics7 years agoWhy do liberals claim the 'parties switched' in the 1960/1970s, yet still claim FDR, JFK and LBJ as their own?
I hear all the time from liberals that the "parties switched" right after civil rights, yet liberals still claim all these figures as theirs?
I mean, I understand the real reason is because Democrats want to pawn off their party's racist history onto Republicans... I just am curious as to why liberals, specifically, can harbor such an absurd idea.
16 AnswersPolitics7 years agoWhy do liberals applaud Obama for causing the largest diversion of income equality in US history?

What exactly was he talking about, I find it odd no one has asked him about this. Granted we do have one of the worst collection of media outlets in the world. Anyone?

11 AnswersPolitics8 years agoWas Obama gifting Russia our military secrets the "flexibility" he talked about during the elecitons?
A guy works at a place for a few weeks, gets a bunch of seemingly high-level secrets and immediately flies off to Russia (via China)... is that the flexibility Obama offered to Putin?
