Christian news outlet Life Site News is decrying former Secretary of State and presumed 2016 Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton for her recent photo-op with members of the Russian punk rock protest band Pussy Riot at the Women in the World Summit in New York last Friday.

In an article published by Life Site News Wednesday, Kirsten Andersen alluded to Clinton’s support of members of the formerly imprisoned band as potentially damaging to US and Russian relations, should the former First Lady run for and win the White House.

"The resulting chill between the U.S. and Russia may prove difficult to thaw for Clinton, should she win the presidency." Andersen states. "While she once famously promised as Secretary of State to "reset" relations between the two world powers, last month she admitted her commitment to promoting homosexual acceptance abroad made things ’tough internationally.’ "

Of Pussy Riot’s recent appearance speaking at the Fifth Annual Women in the World Summit, Andersen said: "Now, the two women are making the rounds in the West, receiving accolades from U.S. and European leaders who make no secret of their admiration for the duo’s controversial actions."

1. Damned if she does and damned if she doesn't

If she had not met pussy riot, she'd have been called soft on Russia and giving in to Putin.

It was a good decision to meet pussy riot members - even Putin realized that imprisoning them was politically stupid and let them go.

2. "In the ceremonies of the horsemen, even the pawns must hold a grudge."

A poet once said this, which is how I feel about the way we care about the political careers of the stars of our body politic.

3. So bob, how can we further destroy the conservative brand identity this morning?

Well ben, I think we could take a shit on human rights activists. That might work.

Great idea Bob! Here, have a raise.
