The Debate on Russia tonight

Jesus. I....I really can't respond. It is so unbelievably discouraging to have the level of discourse in this country on such a monumentally important foreign policy question as Russia be so unbelievably entrenched in decades-old, dichotomous ideals disproved in the past two decades.

Why? Why are we resurrecting the Evil Empire meme? I hope that this idiotic back and forth doesn't lead me to be so hungover tomorrow that I can't point out how stupid LEAGUE OF DEMOCRACY and rambling "I can't really say that Russia is evil, but I think they are because you folk think they are" really is as a talking point.

I really don't know where to begin. This debate is ridiculous.
