re: Why the sudden fear that we may be on the same side as the Russians?

I was raised during the Cold war and had a burning hatred of Communists which survives to this day. I have largely transferred this hatred to the American left. I can't help but think all of this anti-russian talk is just bullshite. We're using them to resupply the ISS so there's a certain level of cooperation there. I'd believe Putin over Obama any day.
