What's the right saying about Putin now? (Original Post)

Wasn't that what Dumbya said?

We're allowed to hate Boehner, DINO's and corporatists...but the cool kids know expressing unalloyed hatred for Putin is childish.

The question in the OP referred to that political movement ordinarily referred to as the "right wing".
Of course, being so very much apart from the crowd as you are, Pretzel, so very much not the sort of chap that goes with the flow, I'm sure your perspective on how we're "not allowed" to dislike Putin will be warmly received by similarly politically unblinkered non-sheep all over DU, as you are so clearly an under-appreciated iconoclast.
But, that aside, what do the right think of Putin?

probably because he didn't strap on his gun and go into a confused situation shooting people at random like Stupid did.
Other than that, the right wing is waiting until tomorrow when Limbag tells them what the Koch brothers want them to think. They will comply.
I just want to see all those little piggy-faced baboons that were lauding him as Mr Saviour say what they think...

(111,245 posts)6. It's useless to ask such a question
on a Sunday before the Monday broadcast that tells them all how to think. Any time a little twinge of doubt surfaces, they chase it away quickly with a "Praise Jebus!" and that gets them through the day until they're told what they can think.
