Now That Mama Moonbat's A Back-bencher

The Kooky Kult of Koslam has a new Hero of the Revolution.

When the Soviet Union collapsed, a door was opened. For a moment in history, we had the chance to do something truly extraordinary. But instead of looking at this as a chance to lay down a heavy burden, too many saw it as an opportunity to pick up a crown. Rather than having no "superpowers" in the word, we decided there would be only one. We saw it as an opportunity to break old treaties and push past old limits. With that decision, the "end of history" became the opening pages on a new, but equally frightening chapter.

America Amerikkka is eeeevil. Check.

Putin said Thursday that tests of new Russian missiles were a response to the planned deployment of US missile defense installations and other forces in Europe. Russia has not bought the argument that the US system is aimed elsewhere.

In a clear reference to the United States, Putin harshly criticized "imperialism" in global affairs and warned that Russia will strengthen its military potential to maintain a global strategic balance.

Putie says it's so, thereby establishing an infallible truth. Check.

At the end of World War II, diplomats from the victorious Allies knew better than to repeat the errors that had ended World War I, but simultaneously ensured the sequel. Unfortunately, another forty years was enough to erase most of that wisdom. History may not repeat itself, but sometimes the echoes of the past are chilling.

So chilling that the echoes of the past being heard by the people of Central and Eastern Europe are the voices of their progressive liberators.

The time remaining before that door is completely shut may be sooner than we want to think, and we're not likely to soon see another opportunity.

The reality-based community embracing a delusional paranoid.

Priceless.
