Back in the 1960's those on the left identified those on the right as reactionary extremist who would, if left unchecked, get us in to a nuclear war with the old USSR, now just Russia. A prime example of the left's paranoia was the movie "Doctor Strangelove" where a far right wing extremist air-force general, Jack D. Ripper played by Sterling Hayden launched a nuclear attack on Russia.

Apparently today's left, the Resistance, has adopted General Ripper's view of Russia. Read the full article here.....
