Gabbard Is a Dream Come True for Foreign Policy Realists

 

[...] there are some egregious accusations that deserve to be scrutinized for the sake of propriety.

 

Two of them include Gabbard's stances on Syria and Ukraine, the epitome of liberal hubris.  The trotting out of Obama-era Democrats to denigrate Gabbard shows that they have not forgiven her for her cardinal sin, the heresy of opposing the prophet at the height of liberal internationalism.
