Shocking New CNN Poll!

Every race, gender, and ethnicity voted in greater numbers for Obama than Romney, with the exception of old, "white", Southern men. So yeah, one could say a racial bias is there, if one wanted to.

Tell that to the idiots who believe that every white person in America hates Obama. These people are so brain dead that they don't understand that Obama couldn't have been elected if whites didn't vote for him.

Not every white. Just Republicans.
 
Madeleine Albright Nails The State Of The World Today In Just One Sentence.
Then, as the Kansas City Star put it, Albright managed to sum up the state of the world today in one simple sentence:

"To put it mildly, the world is a mess."

Evidently they were a little to quick with that Nobel Peace Prize. This is what happens when making history is more important than qualifications, when people buy the hyped up hope that the expected change will automatically be good.
History has been made. Most of it bad. Change has happened. Most of it bad. Hope? Hope has been lost. Well, I guess two out of three ain't bad.
 
I don't think the US had much to do with Ukrainian instability. There was of course the great recession. But more so, it seems the young people of Ukraine want closer ties to Europe and the West, and the old folks want to look back, to the glory days of Russian empire.

Don't fool yourself. We were fully on board with stoking the fires of "revolution" on the ground because we, like the saudis, wanted a competing pipeline (to Gazprom) to go through the Crimea.

I'm more concerned with how the Russian propaganda machine might be trying to fool me. When you look into our supposed meddling, in practical terms, i.e. personnel and money, it doesn't stand out. Not to deny that we have interests in Ukraine looking West.

Ok, so it was old, "white", Southern men who also tend to be wealthy.
