The Hill is reporting that the Russians are being very critical of our impeding election and our entire electoral system, calling it “the worst in the world.”
It occurs to me that their biggest objection may be that the winner of the election is not known prior to voting.
One can only imagine how much Vladimir Putin is cheering for Barack “more flexibility” Obama, and how much our allies (not that Obama recognizea them as such) throughout Eastern Europe are hoping for a Romney win.
Not since Jimmy Carter, and perhaps never in our history, has the United States had a president whose every foreign policy impulse is dangerous and destabilizing.

Th same objections Democrats have.

No doubt Obama is worse than Jimmy Carter. Jimmy was naive, but while in office he was basically a conventional American. Barack's values and sentiments are on the opposite side of traditional American values. He is an anti-colonialist and sees the US as a colonial empire. He values collectivist dictatorship, not personal freedom. He is the most "evolved" American leader who espouses that American citizens live according to the dictates of the central authority. The cult of personality that the media has surrounded him with is highly disturbing. It mirrors the images created for some of the worst dictators of the 20th Century. Who knows what he will turn into if given another four years?

It's the Cult of Celebrity. That's why the media loves him and Biden and why they loved Clinton. The media helps create the celebrities. All it needs are willing volunteers.

Can you imagine what the KGB file on Obama says? I would love to see their evaluation. A KGB defector said that when Ronald Reagan fired the striking air traffic controllers, Andropov was alarmed because we had a fellow who does what he says.
When that 747 lifts off from Andrews AFB on its way to Chicago, I am going to rejoice!

So the Russians don't like our elections? Good!! I don't like the Russians, Commies then, and still Commies now!! That's why they back our current President, he's one of them!!

The President's popularity with Castro, Putin, and Chavez is certainly considered a plus with those inside the Beltway.

The Russians don't like our election? How do you say "póg mo thóin" in Russian?

We meddled in their elections of course they are going to be "critical" of our election where over 2 billion dollars has been spent by both candidates during the campaign. The United States is the most corrupt nation on the face of the earth. It is a government of the corporations, by the corporations and for the corporations.
