Russia huh. Russia hack Weiners puter? Russia make Hillary use an unsecured server?
Oh wait Russia made Hilly go on a black radio station and say she keeps hot sauce on her at all times..........what a stupid bitch.
March 2012. Obama met with Putin stooge and then President Dmitry Medvedev.
Obama caught on live mic saying "on all these issues, particularly missle defense, this can be solved but its important for him to give me space".
To which Medvedev replied "yes I understand your message about space, space for you".
Obama replies "this is my last election, after my election I have more flexibility."
Medvedev responds "I understand. I will transmit to Vladimir."
Democrats were cool with that. Obama then spent the rest of the election mocking Romney for saying the Russians "posed the greatest geopolitical threat to the United States" and telling Romney "the 1990's are calling. They're asking for their foriegn policy back". Then Obama handed control of Syria to Putin, followed by doing nothing when Russia invaded Ukraine.
1983. Ted Kennedy sends John Tunney to Moscow. The message was that Kennedy would lend a hand to Andropov in dealing with Regan. In return, the Soviets would help in challenging Regan in the election. The only real problems with Regans election was war and peace and Soviet relations and these issues would become the most important to his campaign, according to memo's. Kennedy offered to help Adropov get TV interviews in the US. The deal didn't go down......nary a word about this from any Democrat though when the reports of this shit broke in 2009.
1960. Craig and Andrew Shirley. In 1960 the Soviets held U2 pilot Gary Powers after his plane crashed illegally in Russia. Then specifically delayed his release until after the Presidential election. The Soviets used Powers as a bargaining chip and according to Krushchev, it worked. In his memiors he stated "we kept Nixon from being able to claim he could deal with the Russians. Our ploy made a difference of at least 500,000 votes, which gave Kennedy the edge he needed."
So it seems all you Dems complaining of Russian interference are breaking with historical precedent. So are the Pubs who don't seem to care long as it benefits their guy but the hipocracy of the Dems is what is on full display here atm.
