what happened to our political world?
be a sheep and agree with EVERYTHING the party says or you are out?
i grew up in a household where one parent was democrat, one republican and there was always lively debates. None of this name calling, bigot, or hate monger if you don't agree with me stuff. why have people stopped thinking? why just go along with a 'party line'? sometimes i agree, sometimes i don't, that is what your brain is for...

Thank you!!! Totally agree. It is so disheartening to see the close-mindedness rhetoric. I have read some of the congressional debates from early and young America and they were beautiful and fun to read. Come on people....think more, react less.

I listened recently to Tulsi reply to TV news questions about vetting refugees and I thought her comments were informed and intelligent. She was not ranting emotionally or politically.

It is becoming very obvious Gabbard is one of the locals that is right wing Republican inside but knows they would never get elected by registering as a Republican, so they register as Democrat. Republicans in Democrat clothing.

Her issues are Republican, she votes Republican, she doesn't associate with Democrats (think about it, when was the last time you saw Schatz and Gabbard in a photo together). What happened to her concern for the VA? She is also looking like an air-head with this fixation on Obama somehow being responsible for Syria. Talk about misdirection. Her new chief of staff and advisor is a big time Hare Krisha. Just not seeing anything from her that is for Hawaii. Have you made your Krishan donation today?

Foolish? Irresponsible? Traitor?

Tulsi Gabbard, member of the National Guard, but perhaps not a decision maker in the US Air Force, presumes the US is targeting Russian planes. Does she have any information to support her comments? If so, isn't giving away military secrets considered treason? If not, aren't her statements presumably worthless?

Gabbard, a vice chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, said she could "only presume" that President Barack Obama’s recent decision to deploy American fighter jets to the border between Turkey and Syria was to "target Russian planes."

Apparently, you have been asleep for several years. This comment implies Gabbard is being a pacifist by accusing Obama of conducting an "illegal" war in Syria.

This why I hate the Republicans and the right-wing. They constantly lie and when their past actions look like mistakes, they claim the Democrats were responsible. Unlike you, I pay attention to the news and remember events as they happened, not the whitewashing revisions that start getting spread a few years after the fact.

In 2013, the Republicans were outraged Obama was not planning a major offensive into Syria to overthrow Assad.

Republicans implore Obama: Get off the sidelines on Syria issue
August 25, 2013
Congressional Republicans on Sunday ratcheted up pressure on the White House to intervene in Syria, saying the United States “has sat on the sidelines for too long” amid increasing evidence that the Assad regime used chemical weapons on civilians.

They called for action as President Obama weighs evidence of a toxic attack in suburban Damascus. Several hundred Syrians, including women and children, were killed in Wednesday’s artillery assault, though the exact death toll and details of the attack remain murky."
