Yeah, right! While we are at it, let's not have a white man because of privilege and entitled mentality, a white woman because of privilege, a black or a hispanic man or woman because of affirmative action education, a lGBTQ because of low electability, and on and on - represent Democartic Party. Let's just have Trump for another four years. That's who we deserve because we loath everyone who is different from us or because we are such a**h***s. |
You are nuts. |
Ok, I see you still have nothing to say of substance. Look, if you can provide an informed critique of her foreign policy views, why you prefer other candidates, and your own view on military intervention in the ME, go for it. I am all ears, and always learning. |
This. We need a president who clearly stands for American values |
Omg. Her meeting with Assad and inability to condemn him is crazy. If you are ok with that, you are nuts, too, so no further discussion is warranted. It doesn’t really matter. No way does she get the nomination. She is anti-gay and sympathetic to Assad. Crazy. |
Who has a sign for MLK, 50.5 years after his assasination, stuck into his or her lawn? Why do I not believe you supported ”Maverick” McCain against Trump scum, yet have a shiny brand-new interest in supporting Gabbard, despite your not nromg a registered Democrat? Others, too, are always learning, and since you’re so sincere and highly informed and sincere, and not at all interested in whipping bullshit around, I’m sure your response will be wholly on point. |
She is not "sympathetic to Assad." Her viewpoint was that US bomb strikes were likely to create more instability and civilian deaths, while being totally ineffective to actually stop future chemical attacks. This view is shared by actual experts: https://www.armscontrol.org/blog/2018-09-26/what-you-need-know-about-chemical-weapons-use-syria To the extent she initially voiced skepticism about Assad's responsibility ... my guess is she does not now. And in the immediate aftermath, skepticism is appropriate for a country that went to war based on fake WMDs. Remember that? Anyway, curious about what you think about her other stances on Syria and Yemen? |
lol! I am a life-long ANTI WAR democrat who lives on the Hill, where almost every house has an MLK sign on some blocks. |

Disgusting. |
You guess she doesn’t now? LOL. Well, great! By all means then. Just like now she isn’t anti-gay. |
Oh look, we have another whatabout’ist edgelord from The Intercept posting here. How cute. How do you explain this from Rep Gabbard? https://mobile.twitter.com/CNN/status/850477149895131136?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E850477149895131136&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Fnews%2Fpowerpost%2Fwp%2F2017%2F04%2F11%2Fwhat-is-tulsi-gabbard-thinking-on-syria%2F |
Total whack job. |
I see you still have nothing of substance to say and no articulable position of your own on foreign affairs. |
She initially voiced skepticism - that's true and not inappopriate in a world where the US ***went to war*** over false claims. As I posted above, her underlying viewpoint about our response that incident in Syria is serious and has a lot of merit to consider. It's not whataboutism at all to want the progressive left to have a coherent view on foreign intervention, which so far none of you PPs show. While Gabbard is problematic in some ways, her foreign policy views should push the other candidates into explaining their platforms |
