McCain, Schumer On Snowden: Russia Should Pay

[MADem]

20. On the international stage, they're rubes. Pootie Poot shouldn't leave a peer leader or his

direct emissary, his SECSTATE, twiddling their thumbs for any amount of time. Pootie wasn't meeting Schumer or McCain, so your whine doesn't make any sense in this context.


Frankly, I could give a flying fuck what a member of Pootie's Politburo has to say, and I certainly wouldn't allow any behavior by a national LEGISLATIVE politician in any country to influence how our nation handles protocol towards the nation's leader.

So sorry, indeed--shitbird behavior is shitbird behavior--and it is humiliating--for the Russians. What Pootie did to Obama and Kerry was graceless, classless, pigheaded, boorish conduct.


Schumer is a very good Democrat, you know--or maybe you don't. He's the guy who will vote on those 'hack' things like keeping social security and raising the minimum wage, and making sure women don't get fucked out of equal pay.... but I guess you don't keep track of who's who in the zoo, since you can't tell him from McCain and are loving doing that "lumping" thing.

What this Snowden affair is revealing is that there are more faux Dems on this board than I realized...and that lots of people will take the word of a thin, wan, waxy stranger who looks like an extra in a teen vampire movie just .... because. And even when his assertions are proven to be bullshit, they'll double down...just...because. It sure does say something; precisely what, though, I'm not sure.

It doesn't reflect well on them, in any event.
