Democrats are the best! I will never ever question a Democrat again. I LOVE the Democrats!
“We are collaborating with the Islamic State and the Nusra Front by attacking the Syrian Army’s gatherings in … Qalamoun,” Idriss said. “Let’s face it: The Nusra Front is the biggest power present right now in Qalamoun and we as FSA would collaborate on any mission they launch as long as it coincides with our values.”
That quote was from 2014 and Obama still continued the program. Flood the Middle East with weapons, great idea...

All three were corporatists. Trump doesn't bother to hide it much.
Whoever you vote for you get the corporatist party and unless you are in the top 1% of the financial elite you are going to get fucked in the ass. But you know, blather away about identity politics and such like while you get fucked in the ass, that makes all the difference....
surprised no one voted for Bush. people like trump than W
"You know you that bitch when you cause all this conversation."
There were good and bad facets to all three, but none of them I'd particularly say I liked a lot.
Easiest way is to search "Bassel Idriss fsa"

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/179200The Wall Street Journal reports that the Syrian Revolutionaries Front, an FSA element, has teamed up with Jabhat al-Nusra in recent weeks in attempts to capture strategic hilltops in Syria’s southwestern Quneitra province overlooking the Israel-held Golan Heights.
“The FSA and Nusra Front are cooperating on the front line,” Abu Omar Golani, the Syrian Revolutionaries Front’s media coordinator, told the Journal.

Why do you think they switched sides?

To be clear I don't blame Obama, I blame Obama's CIA.The program he ultimately approved was designed not to give the rebels enough support to achieve victory, but rather to engineer a stalemate

Are you looking for a verbatim quote? Point being they knew weapons were falling in the hands of terrorists and continued anyway.
“Abu Majid, another rebel leader, who has been receiving western support for six months, said it had not prevented his recent defeat by Jabhat al-Nusra … More than 1,000 men, half his brigade’s strength, had left in despair, many defecting to Isil … Defection to the jihadists has now been going on for years. Mahmoud, a former prisoner of the regime who used to work for the FSA, now runs safe houses in Turkey for foreign fighters looking to join Jabhat al-Nusra and Isil.” Sherlock, Ruth. “Fears that US weapons will fall into al-Qaeda’s hands as Syrian rebels defect.” The Telegraph, November 11th, 2014. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...ls-defect.html.In September of 2014, FSA “moderate” commander and recipient of US aid Bassel Idriss admitted that “We are collaborating with the Islamic State and the Nusra Front,” the reason for this being “We have reached a point where we have to collaborate with anyone against unfairness and injustice.” [2]

I liked Bill Clinton. Apparently I'm too old for this poll.
The mintpress link is almost the exact quote. You are nitpicking and deflecting.

There comes a time during the later part of a republican presidency when you find it harder and harder to find someone they voted for that pres. I'm sure after Trump is gone it will be difficult to find non cult like base members who will admit voting for him. As most of them will be taking over bird sanctuarys and forgetting to bring enough snacks and eventually have to leave to get/cash their monthly checks.
Me too, absolutely loved the guy. He tried to connect the world, a trustworthy ally. Can't ever look at a cigar the same though. Absolutaly hate Private "grab her by the pussy" Bonespurs. I'm saddened by the fact he is a symptom, not a course, of the moral deterioration of the once leading democracy on the planet.
