Time Text
I'll tell you something else about the Olympics.
I forgot to mention this.
When I was going through the whole business about how the whole thing's been chick-ified, what with all these stories of strife and turmoil, every athlete for crying out loud, it's probably taken him three years to do all these profiles on these athletes and all the horrible things they've had to overcome, every one of them.
There's something else about these games that's different in the past than the past, and that the chickification of all this.
I am convinced, ladies and gentlemen, that they've got a bunch of female directors and camera people now at NBC because during the events featuring female competitors, we're not getting the same camera angles that we used to always get.
We're getting boring, uninteresting camera angles.
And when there is an interesting shot that you might say, whoo, they pull away from it or they widen the shot or whatever, they take it away from you.
And who really wants to watch, you know, female-on-female competition?
I mean, that's the only exception to this is the beach volleyball where the competitors are out there barely dressed.
They're nothing to chick director.
They probably don't even put the chick directors on that event.
Otherwise, there would be camera problems and we wouldn't see it at all.
Greetings and welcome back, Rush Limbaugh, the EIB Network and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to a 26% greater risk of death in men and women, according to a study published yesterday that appears to confirm the importance of vitamin D. Researchers from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore studied 13,000 initially healthy men and women from 94 to 2,000 comparing the mortality rate.
And they found that of the 1,800 people who died by December 31st, 2000, 700 from cardiovascular disease, 400 were deficient in vitamin D, which translated to a 26% increased risk of death.
Now, do you happen to know what one of the primary sources of vitamin D is?
Yeah, milk, but I mean, that's for kids.
What is the there's there's the the there's a more primary source for vitamin D than even milk, Mr. Sturdley.
Dawn, you know what it is?
Jim, you know what it is?
It's the sun.
The sun is the greatest source of vitamin D in the world.
And what does everybody do now?
They either stay out of it or they lather on all this sunscreen to protect themselves the sun can kill you.
The sun can cause cancer.
The sun can cause this and get sunburned.
It's dangerous.
I don't deny that if you're in it too long and doing stupid things, but if you eliminate it totally, you're eliminating vitamin D.
And if you're not getting it in supplements somewhere.
So once again, the unintended consequences of drive-bys have been scaring us out of the sun or we might die.
And now there's a 26% greater chance of death due to vitamin D deficiency.
To the audio sound bites, we're going to go back here to March 22nd, 2007.
This was MSNBC after the announcement by John and Elizabeth Edwards that her cancer had returned and that it was incurable.
Senator Edwards said in that press conference he was going to continue his presidential campaign and that his wife and the children would join him as often as possible.
Now, there had been a leak an hour before the press conference.
Politico got some bad news saying the Edwards camp was going to fold up because of his wife's cancer.
Turned out to be just the opposite, and Howard Feynman was among those analyzing the Edwards press conference on DNC TV.
Looked at politically, diagnosed, if you will, politically.
That was a 10-strike of a press conference.
They showed guts was nothing short of remarkable and somewhat unexpected.
And it's always great when something unexpected happens around here.
So the leak was wrong, and everybody was praising Edwards.
What great politics this was.
What a great show this was.
What a great press conference this was.
This is going to launch new fundraising.
This is going to launch his press.
We had just been told his wife's got incurable cancer, and they're analyzing this.
And these are the people of compassion and tolerance and understanding and love.
And they're telling us that this is so great from the prism of politics.
Now, March 22nd, March 23rd, next day, 2007, on my show, after the announcement of Elizabeth Edwards' cancer, this is what I said.
Now, let me say something that might be accused of cynicism.
What is their religion?
I don't doubt they're religious people, but we talked about this.
Political people are different than you and I.
And, you know, most people, when told a family member's been diagnosed with the kind of cancer Elizabeth Edwards has, they turn to God.
The Edwards turned to the campaign.
Their religion's politics and the quest for the White House.
And it's not just with them.
I mean, it's part and parcel of political people.
Well, same day, the drive-by media gave me legions of heat for this.
And we have a montage here.
We've got, let's see, we've got DNC TV.
We've got Larry King Live.
April Woodard, Nord O'Donnell, Stephanie, all kinds of people here talking about what you just heard me say.
Controversy over what Rush Limbaugh said about brave Elizabeth.
Most people, when told a family member's been diagnosed with the kind of cancer Elizabeth Edwards has, they turn to God.
The Edwards turned to the campaign.
That's Radio Talk Show host Rush Limbaugh criticizing the decision.
Rush Limbaugh has been saying on his radio program that this is an effort by the Edwards campaign to relaunch his campaign.
To me, Larry, this is beyond the pale.
When a Rush Limbaugh says he's doing this as a political stunt.
Did Rush say that?
Yes, Rush did say that.
Well, who was right?
Who turns out, as is always the case, who turned out to be right?
The whole thing was a stunt because he was having a fair.
And his wife probably knew about it.
And then, you know, by the way, my wife's cancer was in remission when I started.
Oh, really?
That makes it okay or better somehow?
I remember I told people around here when this inquirer story.
I don't think I mentioned this on the air, but I'm going to go ahead and mention it now.
I wish I had mentioned it on the air.
When the inquirer story on the Brett girls philandering came out, I said, you know what this is going to be, you know what the explanation is going to be?
He's going to say he was out doing research to find out just how and how you can't have sex with a wife who's got cancer and so forth.
He was doing it for her, doing it for Elizabeth.
And damned if he didn't get pretty close to saying she was, it's just these people, what is it about these libs?
Everything is looked at through a political prism.
They are calculating.
And of course, the drive-bys trying to hide this was perhaps an even bigger story than the Brett girl himself getting involved.
By the way, I mentioned to you on Friday before I get out of here that I had a little bit of a head start on this Atlantic Monthly story that hit yesterday on these internal memos and emails in the Clinton campaign.
And this is really good.
What has come out of this, ladies and gentlemen, is this.
There were two camps inside the Hillary campaign.
There was the Mark Penn, Bill Clinton side, and then there was the other side.
I forget who the people were, but they were going at it in there all the time.
And going into Iowa and coming out of Iowa, Mark Penn and Clinton wanted to just go after Obama.
They wanted to go negative on Obama.
And the other side said, no, no, no, we can't go negative on Obama.
He's who he is.
We've got to build Hillary up.
And Penn and Bill said, that's a lost cause.
We got to go after Obama.
And Penn said something very cryptic.
We've got to use the tapes.
And everybody said, what tapes?
What the hell tapes is he talking about?
And everybody's been running around trying to find out what the tapes were.
Well, it turns out that the tapes were heard by people at the Washington Times.
And among the things I'm looking.
Yeah, here we go.
Is this it?
Yes.
Here it is.
The Washington Times on January 31st, 2008, Barack Obama, the senatorial candidate of 2004, might have a bone to pick with Barack Obama, the presidential candidate of 2008.
Videotapes of debates and speeches that were obtained by the Washington Times show Mr. Obama took positions during his Senate campaign on nearly a half dozen issues ranging from the Cuba embargo to health care for illegal immigrants that conflict with statements he has made during his run for the White House.
For instance, in MSNBC's October 30th presidential debate, Obama hesitantly raised his hand and joined with most of his Democrat rivals to declare that he opposed decriminalizing marijuana.
But as a U.S. Senate candidate, Obama told Illinois college students in January of 2004 that he supported eliminating criminal penalties for marijuana use or possession.
He said in this video, I think we need to rethink and decriminalize our marijuana laws.
This is during a debate at Northwestern, but I am not somebody who believes in legalization of marijuana.
So apparently he had a bunch of tapes in the Clinton campaign of Obama contradicting himself as a presidential candidate versus a Senate candidate and some things he had said while a street activist in Chicago.
And apparently somebody did get the tapes out to the Washington Times.
And I do know, I do know, I can tell you this, that the Clinton campaign was trying to get conservative media outlets to use various things they had on Obama.
They were afraid to do it themselves for the obvious reasons.
I mean, they were out there peddling the Jeremiah Wright stuff for a long time.
They were.
They just didn't want to use it themselves.
And they were peddling these tapes.
And we can see from these internal memos that Mark Penn and Clinton wanted to release the tapes and other people didn't.
So they did a surreptitious release to the Washington Times and hardly anybody noticed because the Times is a newspaper.
It can't play the tapes other than on their website.
So anyway, it showed that after Iowa, there was a total breakdown in the Clinton campaign as to how to go forward and how to handle it.
And in one instance, Hillary is having a meeting with one of her two staffs, and she's shouting and moaning and nobody's saying anything.
And she blows up at that.
So, okay, well, I guess it's really good.
I can sit here and talk to myself all day, huh?
Well, what do you think, Hillary?
You had a bunch of yes men in there.
All they did was do what you wanted them to do.
I mean, she's running the show.
But they haven't given up on the nomination.
They have not given up.
They would love nothing more than for the Democrat convention to become a war zone.
Anyway, quick timeout here, my friends.
We'll be back.
Lots more straight ahead plus your phone calls after this.
Yeah, this is so great.
This is so fabulous.
What's this from?
This is from the National Journal.
Americans, let's say for the recent coverage, global warming.
According to a survey, 47% of Americans consider global warming an important issue to them personally, down from 52% in 2007.
The numbers are plummeting, is the point on the number of people who think global warming is a pressing issue that matters.
And from Rasmussen, voters overwhelmingly believe that politicians will break the rules to help people who give them a lot of money.
But most say there's a bigger problem in politics today, and that is media bias.
Media bias, according to 55% of the American people, is a bigger problem than campaign cash.
And they wonder why they're losing audience and subscribers and ad revenue and pages.
And they wonder.
Back to the phones.
Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
This is James.
Nice to have you here, sir.
Hello.
Is he gone?
James, you there?
Oh, darn.
He wanted to talk about Edwards and who knew and what were the motivations.
And I've got a theory about the motivations.
Well, I don't know that I can, I don't know that I can put this one on the air.
Why not?
Well, I mean, at some point, at some point, you've got to exhibit maturity and restraint.
You know, and I do that constantly.
What would be the motivations for this?
Well, I don't know.
Look, let me see if I can run you through this and get you to think what I'm thinking without my actually saying it.
That might be a pretty big talent, if I could do that.
Make you think what I'm going to say without my having to say it.
Therefore, if anybody gets in trouble for saying it, you say it.
We know, we've been told that Elizabeth Edwards is smarter than John Edwards.
That's part of the puff pieces on them that we've seen.
Ergo, if Elizabeth Edwards is smarter than John Edwards, is it likely that she thinks she knows better than he does what his speeches ought to contain and what kind of things he ought to be doing strategy-wise in the campaign?
If she is smarter than he is, could it have been her decision to keep going with the campaign?
In other words, could it be that she doesn't shut up?
Now, that's as far as I'm going to go.
I'm missing something.
Well, Snurdly says he's missing something.
If you're missing it, you're going to have to provide it.
What are you missing?
I can't close the loop on it.
I can't close the loop on it.
I'm in a little quicksand already today talking about how the chicks are giving us boring pictures of the female athletes from the Olympics.
Because I know, you know, the diversity crowd is going to be upset.
Do you think the Olympics are just so you guys can ogle wimp?
Yes, because we do not care to watch them compete.
But back to Elizabeth and the Brett girl.
I'm sorry, my friends.
I just, I can't.
It just seems to me that Edwards might be attracted to a woman whose mouth did something other than talk.
All right, here's Sandy on I-35 in Dallas.
Welcome to the EIB Network.
Hello.
Hey, Brosh.
Megaditto.
Thank you.
Actually, I'm coming from Greater Tishamingo, Oklahoma, just south of the Red River.
Well, I wanted to tell you that Brune Arledge doesn't do the Olympics anymore, so that's why you're not getting any great female shots.
But you probably know that.
Who doesn't do the Olympics anymore?
Brune Arledge.
Brune Arledge, yes.
Exactly.
Exactly right.
Brune Arledge does.
Well, but Rune Arledge hasn't done the Olympics in a long time.
And I remember the NBC Olympics back where were they?
Greece?
Yeah.
Yeah, there's a lot more to look at then than there is this year, I guarantee you.
Right.
But also, that's why you're not getting the great female shots back when Rune used to do all the sports.
Yeah, there's no question about that.
But also, where's all the boxing promotion?
What happened to the great boxing promotion we used to have?
What do you mean?
Boxing promotion?
There's no boxing promotion.
Are we going to see any boxing this summer?
You mean at the Olympics?
Yeah.
Well, what do you mean boxing promotion?
You mean advertising it?
It's coming up.
We're not even seeing the boxing matches.
Is that what you're saying?
Yeah, but we, you know, used to when the summer Olympics were coming on, we saw boxing promotion right and left with through the years with you a big boxing fan?
Yes, I am.
I said Friday Night Calvic to sports with my dad on a little pink radio back when and saw the George Foreman.
Yeah, this is cool.
Yeah.
This is really cool.
Yeah.
Well, look, you know, you can see boxing, but you have to...
I've been checking out all of their various channels.
And they've got a...
At least I have DirecTV.
They've got a high-definition channel, NBCUniversal, which is Channel 74 on DirecTV.
And that's where a lot of the boxing has been.
It hasn't been on NBC.
And they're putting the really, I mean, the dinky stuff on MSNBC.
That even might be reruns.
I'm not sure.
But I did read in the New York Post today that one of our great hopes from the Bronx had his clock cleaned 20 to 5 in like the first round or two.
Just a little paragraph.
There may not be much of a story to tell out there, Sandy.
And I have to run because we're out of busy broadcast time for this segment.
Back after this.
Yes, Wilson Pickett in the midnight hour.
Mustang Sally.
Okay, we're back.
Ladies and gentlemen, my theory that I just explained to you about why, you know, what could have John Edwards' motivations been to have the affair with Riley Hunter, given his wife is smarter than he is and probably nagging him a lot about doing this, and he found somebody that did something with her mouth other than talk.
I think I can back this up from her.
We have a soundbite.
This February 2007, she was on the tabloid show Extra.
And this is what she said.
Listen very carefully.
The whole experience was life-altering for me.
One of the great things about John Edwards is that he's so open and willing to try new things and do things in new ways.
Open to new things.
Folks, it is what it is.
He gets mad at me for bringing the truth to you, but it is what it is.
Here's George in Fair Oaks, California.
Great to have you with us.
Hello, sir.
Good morning, Grush.
Well, I guess it's the afternoon where you're at.
Yes.
And thank you.
I was waiting for a long time and I soaked up all that free vitamin D.
I almost got sunburned.
I'm glad you got a sense of humor, George.
But I like the comments on this, Odessia and all this Georgia problem.
I think this Georgian president could not have chosen a worse time to do what he did to obey these.
What did he do?
Well, he invaded autonomous territories militarily.
And I compared that.
I'm a Serb, and I look at this.
Wait, now I really want to learn here because you now are the second, you're the third caller who has, and you're, I know you're Russian, right?
No, no, I'm a Serb.
You're a Serb.
Okay, sir.
But you're the third caller to blame this on Georgia and Shashvili.
Yeah, Gashvili, yeah.
And yeah, Shashvili.
And this is, it's going against everything that I've heard here.
What did Shakvili do to provoke the Russians?
This have to do with South Ossetia?
Well, of course, because he attacked a province.
And he used the Olympics to do that because he was thinking that Russia, because Putin there and our president is there, there wouldn't be any retaliation.
And that's stupidity on his part.
He knows that Russians will never, they don't care what's happening in the world, where the world is going to think about harmony in sports or anything.
They're going to protect their territory.
And they feel it's their territory because it is settled by ethnic Russians or Titians or whatever they are.
And if they had that autonomy, then why do they have to invade them?
They're living within the country.
South Ossetia has been a, for years they have been disunified or deunified, if I can say this, with Russia or with Georgia.
This is, I don't know, what did Shashvili do that he hasn't been doing, that hasn't been going on for years that prompted this?
I'm really stunted.
The number of people that want to try to say that the Russians had every right to go in and do what they did and that we were meddling and that Shashvili was meddling and he finally got what he deserved.
That's.
Well, Jukashvili, our influence is really great in Georgia.
And, you know, our American influence.
And what this guy is doing, pulling a card right now, he wants to assert himself as a leader, pro-Westerner, somebody who wants to be part of the European Union.
And he used this part to have the uproar of the whole world against the Russians for the actions that he took.
And I think he's like a prostitute looking for a better John.
And now, how to get a better John is to get John's pardon my language tipped off at each other, let them do it out, and I'll just stand in the back.
And that was a mistake on his part.
He'll backfire on him.
You'll see.
I'll take this under advisement.
None of what I have read has proffered this theory.
But yet you are the second, third caller today, which has essentially said that the Russians have no choice, that they were simply defending themselves.
So our first caller referred to Shaakashvili as a sack of excrement.
You have referred to him as a prostitute looking for a better John.
Well, you know.
You're making this guy sound like a Democrat.
Yeah, well, thank you.
I'm a right-wing military right-wing, as a fair fair.
I don't align myself with anybody.
But I'm looking at Serbia and Kosovo, and we bombed their infrastructure to Stone Age.
And for what?
Another autonomous province, which is actually Serbian territory, which was occupation by population.
Same thing that's happening in our country right here.
We are being occupied, occupation by population.
Foreigners coming in illegally, and more and more of them using our services.
Same thing happened over there, and Serbs got clubbered.
There was a religious component there.
Well, religious component was overblown by the media, associated press information, I should say, because never, as you know yourself, what kind of writing goes on in newspapers who have a paper?
That's right.
I can't disagree with you on that.
We've called attention to that on previous occasions.
Well, look, thanks, George.
I appreciate it very much.
I'm glad you waited.
And we go to Aston, Pennsylvania.
This is David.
You're next on the Rush Lindbaugh program.
Hi.
David in Ashton, Pennsylvania, are you there?
Yes, Rush.
How are you?
Fine, sir.
Thank you very much.
Good.
Thank you very much.
Listen, this kind of has to do with Obama and the Georgian conflict and all these things.
My question was, if we were on his energy plan of we're not allowed to drill for oil, we can't do anything at all, so how would we ever wage a military campaign against Russia?
Would we be haunting like destroyers running on sunflower oil?
I mean, how can he do that?
You missed the point that we wouldn't need to wage military campaigns because with Obama, there wouldn't be any more.
He would talk everybody out of them.
According to Tim Kaine, governor of Virginia, Obama's the one who got the ceasefire in Georgia and South Ossetia because he asked the Russians to stop it.
And Tim Kaine said he's happy that the Russians listened to Obama.
So, I mean, that's what the Obama camp is saying.
Oh, well, of course.
I mean, do you understand where I'm coming from?
I mean, I mean, how can he possibly think this?
I mean, he's not going to be able to do that.
It's called audacity.
I have no idea what he's talking about.
It's called the audacity of audacity.
And what it is is Tim Kaine who's trying to be selected as Obama's VP.
He's just groveling.
But no, your rhetorical question is this right on the money.
If we're not going to have our own independent sources of energy, how in the world are we going to maintain our status as a superpower?
See, this is the problem.
You know, we've been in a jocular mood for much of the day today, but I'll tell you, I made a speech last night in Aspen, Colorado, where I was not here yesterday, and it had to fly out there in the afternoon to get there in time for the speech.
And I spoke about what we face here.
There's a war going on in our country for the definition of our country and its structure in the future.
And on one side of the war is us, and we want to preserve this nation as it was founded.
On the other side are people like Obama and the leftists who don't like this country as it was founded.
They have a problem with too much individual liberty and freedom.
They want bigger governments, higher taxes, and more individual control over as much of the way people live as they can get.
And it's very, very serious.
And our legislators on our side, we do not have any elected leadership in Washington.
Our legislators do not understand that we're in a war.
They have it, like this gang of 10 thing that happened last week.
The Republican senators in that deal do not understand how they just almost took away the one winning issue Senator McCain has and that we have over the Democrats because they believe, mistakenly so, that what the American people want is for Republicans and Democrats to get along.
And as I told Senator Chandler last week, that's not what the American people want.
What the Republicans, what conservatives in this country want is to mop the floor with Democrats.
We are tired of accepting their premises and then going along with them to show that somehow we're not the bad guys.
We are the good guys, and we just don't have any elected leadership.
So this is going to be a grassroots series of grassroots operations that build conservatism.
For example, this is not a big deal, but it was announced today that three Republicans have decided to endorse Obama.
They are former Iowa Republican Congressman Jim Leach, former Rhode Island Republican Senator Lincoln Chafee, and prominent lawyer and former White House intelligence advisor Rita Hauser.
Now, Obama's out there, and the Democrats are saying, whoa, wow, we got three Republicans endorsing Obama.
But come on, Jim Leach.
Chafee stopped being a Republican a long time ago.
Jim Leach was never Republican.
He was a moderate.
And his Hauser babe, nobody ever heard of.
The dirty little secret about this, the way I see it, these are exactly the kind of moderate Republicans in name only that McCain courted all these years.
These people, Jim Leach, Lincoln Chafee, Rita Hauser, why they ought to be first to be endorsing McCain.
That's the exact kind of Republican he's going after.
And look, they've signed up with Obama.
It's pathetic, but it's funny at the same time.
And so we're in this war for what kind of country we're going to have and what kind of future people's children and grandchildren are going to have.
We are a nation, a great nation at great risk in a dangerous world with a bunch of sophists who want control.
I mean, the Democrat Party has actually nominated a neighborhood activist, a street activist, as its presidential candidate who is clueless.
The man doesn't think.
He simply is able to reiterate what he had been taught.
And if you look at the people he's hung around and the people who've taught him, it's all the blame America crowd that you find in academia.
You've got Jeremiah Wright poisoning his mind.
He's got his wife hangs around with his wife and she's mad every day of the week too.
And then you've got this lunatic, Father Phleger.
And you've got this terrorist guy, Bill Ayers.
I mean, that's why these people's associations matter.
It's why their character matters.
If you look at who apparently has structured the Obama character, I mean, it's, how else do you explain this guy telling a seven-year-old kid who wants to know why he wants to be president?
Because my country's not what it once was.
Where in the hell, when's it been better?
Or when's it been worse?
When's it been better, either way?
I mean, it's just, it's just, he's just mouthing these things because that's what he thinks people want to hear.
He thinks people are like him.
This is the arrogance and the condescension.
He thinks most people look at their country and find immediate fault with it.
But I'm just telling you, all these people that did not vote for him in these late state primaries, these blue-collar white traditional Democrat voters, I'll tell you something, folks.
They're not being interviewed on television.
The drive-bys aren't talking about them.
These people, I don't care if they're Republicans or Democrats or whatever, they do not want to see a rookie presidential candidate in Berlin or anywhere else in the world run down their country, especially a Democrat presidential candidate who ought to be thanking God that he is an American, that he lives in this country, and that it has provided him and his wife such a wonderful wife and a great, he's running for president for crying out loud,
and he still sees fit to criticize this country.
And I'm just going to tell you, all of these blue-collar white Democrats, Pennsylvania, Ohio, you name it, wherever Obama was unable to close this thing against Hillary, they heard it, they saw it, and they don't like it.
They may not telepolister that, but when they get a chance to vote, I guarantee you it is not going to be for the Messiah.
I just got an interesting note from a friend of mine who is in the area of international studies, who's been monitoring the program today.
And he said the guy who just called the Serb who just called from Pharaohs, California, has got a point.
But it still needs to be modified somewhat because all the callers today that we've taken so far in this said the Russians were right to defend themselves, that somehow Shkashvili provoked all this.
And the note I have from my friends is this is not what has caused this.
It's not that Shkashvili did anything.
He said that the caller, the Serb caller, had an important point.
The Serbs to this day are rightly angry that our State Department and the European Union and even people like McCain decided to show how much they love Islam by allowing the Kosovo Muslims to annex part of Serbia rather than stop it because they want to be critical of Islam.
They want to show our magnanimity.
Okay, go ahead and do that.
Now, Russia was the Serbs' protectors.
And they protested at the time, saying that these nitwits were settling or setting a precedent to allow insurgent separatist terrorist factions to break away from sovereign countries.
And that's basically what the Kosovo Muslims annexing part of Serbia was.
So the State Department, European Union all ignored the Russians and their complaints.
And the Russians said, okay, if that's the way you want it.
And so now Putin has encouraged his own insurgent separatist terrorist factions to break off parts of Georgia on the pretext that Georgia has caused this, that Shkashvili has brought this about.
The bottom line, though, it's still all a pretext.
Russia would have done this anyway because that's who they are.
But this is why some people think that we have given the Russians a pretext because we didn't object when we allowed part of Serbia to be annexed for Kosovo for the Muslims there.
And all of you people who have called here today who might think that the Russians are defending themselves.
Yeah, okay, the Russians are defending themselves.
How?
That's why they tried to kill the now president of Ukraine with poison.
It's why they've killed some expatriates.
It's why they've murdered and jailed some journalists who dare to question Putin.
It's why they have jailed several corporate executives who don't bow to Putin.
And that's why Putin circumvented his own constitution by switching jobs so he could still run Russia.
It's all in self-defense.
How about Ledvinko, Ledvininko or whatever, the guy they poisoned with polonium-212?
Simply because he was criticizing Putin.
