NP Rank:
Pravda being jerk-offs
The Russian people can be so proud of their civil rights and human liberty history of freedom, right? Let’s wall it in.
Totalitarian regimes are us.
“Pravda sticks it to ‘trucker-type’ Clinton
By Al Kamen, Published: February 28
U.S.-Russian relations may have truly hit bottom. A vicious, over-the-top newspaper column Sunday blasted Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton for saying Russian and Chinese vetoes of an Arab League-backed peace plan for Syria were “despicable.”
The column in Pravda — formerly a commie house organ and now apparently in that same mode — was headlined “Despicable is Hillary Clinton.”
“She started four years ago as a charming Secretary of State, the smile on the snout to wipe out the snarl of her predecessor,Condoleezza Rice.”
But now, it continued, “she appears on camera butch, a trucker-type probablycomplete with tattoos, insolent, inconsequential and incompetent. We now understand Bill.”
The screed slides, with increasing incoherence, downhill from there, rehashing her 2008 campaign embellishment of her landing in Bosnia “under fire,” and then smacking her for blowing a “very easy” shot at the presidency. “Did she pull it off? No she didn’t.”
Russia and China only “exercised their right to block NATO’s evil desire to make another Libya out of Syria,” the column says. That would be bad? At least the Libyan government, as opposed to Russian ally Syria, was not engaged in a full-scale bombardment of women and children, last time we checked.
But Clinton’s not the only one who’s “despicable.” We quickly get to the “Gulf Royals, unelected, but in power,” and not a word of protest from the administration even though the regimes “have carried out the most draconian measures against their citizens.” (As opposed to a full-scale bombardment of women and children, see above.)”

Think of Pravda as Russian style Washington Post or MSNBC or Fox news. Depending on who's in Office.

Skewed to their purpose but, their treatment of Hillary is no less than what Democrats did to Hillary to get Obama in office. If Democrats were more than happy to sink Hillary with equal commentary, we can hardly look to the homeland of liberal collectivism to do any less today.
