What “60 Minutes” Didn’t Say About Russia

The Sunday CBS “60 Minutes” program aired a dramatic story about murder and corruption in Russia and the criminals who run the regime in Moscow. But it did not mention the failure of the Obama administration to challenge the Putin regime over its blatant human rights abuses and official corruption.

OK, so Russia is a corrupt totalitarian regime. Apparently, CBS has no sense of history. Russia has ALWAYS been a corrupt oppressive regime.

Why doesn’t 60 Minutes grow a pair and talk about how America was once a Republic that recognized the Rule of Law and limited government, but has now become a corrupt oppresive regime?

Oh, wait, they are part of it. Never mind.

I’m a lot less concerned about Russia than I am about America.

So now we are at war with West Asia instead of East Asia? Oh wait, we've always been at war with West Asia, just ask 60 Minutes.....

A Canadian Olympian tweets a selfie with Putin and ends up in bigtime hot water. Why? Not because Putin runs a corrupt thugocracy where his opponents end up in Siberian prisons. Oh, no. She's in trouble because Putin doesn't like gays.

What has the West come to?

Do their security forces export arms to their narco enemies in order to generate murder headlines?

When their soldiers beg on the radio for help, are these requests ignored?

I wonder.

I’d take a selfie with Putin any day. And I’m not gay. I even have a Columbus Blue Jackets Anisimov #42 jersey. Hell, Vlad would probably like that.

I’ll take Putin over Obama, thank you.
