Lol. That one really made me laugh out loud.


I think the Russia experiment is going horribly wrong. Makes me feel a little better about our crazy country.

They appear to have misplaced priorities, but they should be cut some slack as they their news media is totally state-controlled by Putin and they really do not get a complete picture of what is happening. Meanwhile, we get photos of Snowden enjoying the Bolshoi Ballet--while intelligent independent thinking Russians are fleeing the country. It's surreal.
I think you hit the nail with that phrase.


I know how easily influenced our population is and could only imagine what things would be like if we had the same type of government/media as Russia.


I get taking jabs at our president, but to bring race into it? Way to **** off half the world.

It's been going wrong for awhile. Like since my grandparent was a child living near the Poland-Russia border.

Do not trust them.

No surprise from people who shoot down civilian aircraft.

What Russia experiment? Russians are racist, but they didn't import a bunch of slaves and then designate them to live as second class citizens. You have to remember that Russia and the soviet bloc was closed off to most of the world for decades.

Uh, we already do. You're fooling yourself if you think the US media isn't full of propaganda.

Yeah, they don't care. Russians are proud and aren't going to bow down to the rest of the world.

A couple kids playing with a laser. Not exactly a big deal. Nowhere near as offensive as some of the cr*p liberals in this country came up with when Bush was in office.

Pretty funny. You crazed leftists would be applauding if it was Bush they'd done this too. Just like you applauded when an idiot threw a shoe at Bush or you depicted him as a chimp, Hiler, etc., called him Shrub and so on.

I think, like America, most of the world now see obama as the fool he is.
