I wouldn't call Mr. Bolton a "progressive" by any stretch of the imagination, but he shares the anti-Russian, pro-Syrian-invasion attitude I've seen expressed by many progressives.
The problem is you guys think corporate media = progressive. That is simply not the case. Much of the media takes a status-quo neoliberal stance. I don't know of a single Progressive who was for a war in Syria. Many display distrust of Russia, but that is natural considering their government is an oligarchy that murders journalists. Some Progressive media sources I read, like Counterpunch and Truthdig, are a bit too Russia-government friendly, at times.
