Thread: Hillary on Russia

Anyone catch the debate that just aired?

When asked who the next president of Russia was likely to be Hillary answered, "Medevvava...whatever"

Can you imagine the question, "Do you know who will be the next president of Mexico?" being answered, "Rodri....or whatever"?

I'm amazed she knows how to be President.

If he even can pronounce such easy name, as "Medvedev", she must be happy, what next president is not expected to be Zyuganov or Zhirinovskiy.

I think I'm beginning to hate her because of this dismissive "whatever". Not that I liked her before.

Why does she behave towards Russia in such an unpleasant manner? What makes her so intactful and self assured, so prejudiced? Or she only wants to seem like that to conquer_ the votes of people who are as paranoid as herself!?

It's a good tactics, if she believes the majority is as paranoid and biased as she is. Politicians, and especially presidential candidates, would never say something they don't think their audience wants to hear. C'est la vie.

How about we make a trade? Russia gets Hillary and the USA gets Putin. If not Putin, then just take her, please, for free no questions asked. No refunds! What do you think?

Now your talking!

No way, we get Yulia. She's probably just as little qualified for the job as Dr. Merkel, but her hair style is distinct and pretty cool. (Did anyone say 'steering wheel'?? ) It's great, GO, Yulia! I suppose I'm a fan.

С рулем на голове. =)
Дамочка с косой ей больше подходит, очень двусмысленно.

Двусмысленность только в русском. А жаль.

It was in the St Petersburg Times this week that Putin once remarked when asked what he thought about Hillary that, " A government official must at least have brains!" LOL

Did he mean her remark about his soul?

Medvedev. Mehd-V(y)EHD-yehf. Whatever.

Code:

I saw it coming as soon as Tim Russert cornered Hillary Clinton into naming Vladimir Putin’s heir. She dodged, ducked and plunged into the now famous: “Med, vay, deva, whatever.” Nobody thought the worse of her. In fact, it drew one of the few sympathetic murmurs in the debate. Russian names are just not something most Americans can do. And if the blogs and online pronunciation guides I’ve checked are any indication, they never will.
...

Russians have their own problems with American names, but the current presidential candidates do not pose a major challenge. Obama leaps the language barrier, and Kleenton and Makkayn are easy. Luckily, none have a “th” in their name, a sound Russians eschew. Remember Margaret Techer?

With time, we will learn to cope with Medvedev. We overcame Khrushchev, adopted Rostropovich and cheer hockey players, ballerinas and tennis stars. Medvedev is as elemental as “medved,” Russian for bear. So: Launch with “med” as in “he’s off his med”; put the accent on the “VEH” as in “venomous,” and trail off with a lazy “dev” with just a hint of “z” and “i”: “dziev.” Altogether now: “Med-VEH-dziev.” Whatever.

Млин, «Медведзиев» — это какой-то азербайджанец, а не русский.
