Well, there is such a thing like 'copy/paste'. This McCain's text was relayed all over the Russian part of internet, because it's amusing, despite the fact that it's really a lie. McCain says Russian people have to choose 'right way' (in his opinion). But they already did it once. And what happened? The US just robbed Russia, that's all (also we got stupid TV, made according to an American pattern or even worse,. Now Americans want to play the same trick again. Because their debts are enormous.

Anyway, I'm glad this new 'cold war' has started. It's a chance for the world to liquidate the monster. At least, now information is free, so anyone can find the true facts. Butthurt is inevitable, although American media protects the US citizens as it can.

Yeah, the article was funny but kinda scary too. I mean, if McCain is really that stupid then what are the other politicians really like?
But yeah, I'm wondering why McCain published the article in Pravda.ru now. I don't usually read that paper since I can find almost anything in Российская газета, but when I heard about that op-ed I just had to check it out. I didn't know it had a low circulation till I read about it in this thread and other news articles.

Well, if there's gonna be a cold war then I'm not enlisting. I know there's a lot of seriously messed up stuff right now (like the NSA and invading other countries without a legitimate reason) but i'm not gonna add to it by hating on people I don't even know. I don't mind fighting with people if there's a reason, but cause "somebody said I should" is Not a good reason.
Good reason: Somebody knocked me off my skateboard.
Bad reason: Because they aren't just like me.
I think our politicians are nutjobs! They are always doing serious stuff that nobody wants them to do. And they almost nuked North Carolina!
