Not just bogeyman of left but also promoted as a policy by some hawks on right.

My bottom line is I think Obama hits the right middle ground of punishing Russian aggression without threat inflation.

I don't disagree. It is just whitewashing of neo-fascism & Putinism in name of "left" is beyond irritating.

It is reminiscent of "left" that turned blind eye to Moscow Trials, murder of Old Bolsheviks, gulag.
