 Hil:  Russians "deserve the right to have their voices heard and their votes counted."
"Putin, in turn, complained that [Hil] Clinton had denounced Sunday's elections as fraudulent before she [Hil]had reliable info."

     The elections were either fraudulent — or, they were not.

     In the course of history going back to the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre, or wherever you want to choose as the beginning point of the trend, the trend towards liberal or democratic methods occurs only because this is all that works, not because of ideas or ideals. It does not occur because of opinions. It works because nothing else will. These are the only methods that will work. So, the practices we think of as modern, liberal, democratic - what we call modernity - work not because of opinions or ideas, but because there is nothing else.

     What is functioning is not the example of someone's clever ideology. You can see pics: Hillary speaking and Putin sitting, or speaking, in the Chicago Tribune, on page 20, Dec. 09. Both photos are exceedingly well-executed by the photography departments (Reuters and Novosti). Both persons are dingbats. Democracy wins. Get it, Pootsky?

     What does Pootsky think he is going to prove? What does he think his is going to get?, -immortal life?
