which makes me question the legitimacy of "wars for freedom and democracy" when certain parts of the right wing politicians so obviously cannot accept democratic processes in their own country

They can and do respect the process. The republicans are the majority in Congress. They are doing right now what they were elected to do. The democrats hold the senate. And they are doing what they were elected to do. The democrats lost control of the congress because of Obamacare.
