Is Tulsi Gabbard a right wing crank?

[Renew Deal]

She is on with Maher going along with all of his Islamapbobia, hawkishness, criticism of Obama from the right, etc.

[immoderate]

1. She is a Dem congressperson from Hawaii. I don't know much but I think she is anti-war.

5. She is an Army Reserve captain, hence can't be COMPLETELY anti-war

She is very much pro-ballistic missile defense, but when your state is within missile range of North Korea that's not an unreasonable position.

7. Her rank is Major

2. Google "tulsi gabbard chris butler cult"

Quite a backstory on that one. I learned about it in an apolitical context and have never brought it up here but it is pretty fucked up and I don't think many people outside Hawaii know much about her and her family.

3. Nope.

I don't think so.

4. I like her on syria

She makes good points about the dangers of arming jihadists.

6. First, she is a veteran. Give her at least this respect

Second, she was good. She did not try to repeat anyone's talking points. She expressed what she believed and was quite articulate.

8. she comes from a parent who is an extreme homophobe among other things nt
