Who knew Libya had a branch of the 'Baseball Furies'?

MOSCOW — Russia's Vladimir Putin implicated Washington on Thursday in the killing of Libyan dictator Moamer Kadhafi and launched a tirade against Senator John McCain in an extraordinary attack on US policies.
The Russian premier used his annual televised phone-in to unleash the type of no-holds-barred attack that characterised his 2000-2008 term as president and threatens to shadow his expected return to the Kremlin in March polls.
Putin turned stone-faced when asked about a tweet from McCain -- one of Washington's fiercest critics of Putin -- warning Russia it faced an "Arab spring" revolt over the disputed December 4 parliamentary elections.
"Mr McCain fought in Vietnam. I think that he has enough blood of peaceful citizens on his hands. It must be impossible for him to live without these disgusting scenes anymore," Putin said in reference to Kadhafi.
"Who did this?" Putin demanded. "Drones, including American ones.
"They attacked his column. Then using the radio -- through the special forces, who should not have been there -- they brought in the so-called opposition and fighters, and killed him without court or investigation."
The Pentagon immediately dismissed the charge as "ludicrous". ....
"I know Mr McCain," said Putin while stressing that he prefer not to refer to him as a "friend".
"This was not addressed in my direction. This was said about Russia. Some people want to move Russia aside somewhere in a corner, so it does not intervene -- so that it does not intervene in the ruling of the world," said Putin.
"They still fear our nuclear capabilities," he said in reference to the West.
"That is why we are such an irritant. We have our own opinion and are conducting our own independent foreign policy ... And it clearly bothers someone."

“Invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them all to Christianity.....”
Well, (A) and (B) accomplished in a couple of places, but we are way behind on (C).
He’s damn right...Khaddafi was an American hit...Just loved it that the first guy we saw near the body had a Yankee baseball hat on his head.

That’s quite rich coming from someone who’s indulged in anti-
democratic, dictatorial ideology, remains in principle among the most hard line of rigid, orthodox Bolshevist adherents.
I get a real kick out of a guy that has allowed Eastern Russia to be occupied by Chines nationals, lecturing his populace on threats to his nation.
As China demands this territory, then that on the Western Pacific, and shoots it’s mouth off constantly, about what other nations ought to be doing, Putin kisses it’s ass, and trashes the only nation would be able to come to his defense, if China had not previously destroyed it, then set it’s sights on his nation.
Putin’s people are a natural ally of ours, if only their leadership could grasp the reality of it. Putin could have seen massive investment in his nation, if he had knocked off the anti-American rhetoric, and laid off the sabre rattling in conjunction with China.
This numb nut deserves a dunce cap, and to have to sit in the Russian nation’s corner.
I can’t wait to see who is hit first, when Iran does develop a nuclear weapon. Vlad, you have a serious terrorist problem. Remember?
You really do need to think real long and hard about who your natural allies are and should be.
A Middle-East with multiple nuclear powers is going to bring a bright future to Russia? Has this ass hat clown had a lobotomy?
Now, back to trashing the U.S. Vlad, even if the U.S. is doing something that will benefit your nation far more than you ever did.
“Putin says US involved in Kadhafi killing”
####
EyeGuy says Putin’s USSR involved in the killing of tens of millions of Soviet citizens, at a level to render Hitler, a rank amateur.
Putin never swerved in his allegiance to Soviet Communism. He proudly served the EVIL EMPIRE and is still proud of it to this day. His only regret is that the EVIL EMPIRE collapsed.
“Putin says U.S. involved in Ghaddafi killing.”
So according to Ron Paul’s remarks in the debate last night, he and Putin are on the same page now. Isn’t that SPECIAL?!
How can they tell?
And in his hand was a 9mm pistol fabricated by FN (Belgium) but designed by the greatest gun designer — John Browning.
Hell, Vlad, if I may call you that, just phone the WH, they will tell you that Barry went over there himself and personaly did him in.
Barehanded.
While fighting off a gaggle of girls.
And drinking a Coke.
And grinning into the camera.
Even a broken clock is right....
NATO under Obama was the de facto air force for AQ in Libya that tortured and killed the former dictator so therefore it is Obama and NATO military leaders who are legally culpable :

ICC Prosecutor Says Gadhafi’s Death May Be War Crime
“”Mr McCain fought in Vietnam. I think that he has enough blood of peaceful citizens on his hands. It must be impossible for him to live without these disgusting scenes anymore,” Putin said in reference to Kadhafi.”
I’m not one to defend Senator McCain. After all, he’s done a lot of damage to conservative causes...so I won’t.
“The USSR should have started timely economic reforms and changes as well as reforms to strengthen democratic change in the country”
So, whats wrong with that?
They did start reforms. They were called glastnost and perestroike and their purpose was exactly what Putin wanted, to save the EVIL EMPIRE from its rickly deserved annihilation. They failed. Putin is just rewriting history, as he always does.
