And now more news from Russia. The Sochi Olympics? Eh, maybe wait till the next one. The Rooskis have flooded Sochi with wanted fliers for a so-called "black widow," wife of a martyred Islamic nobleman. She's supposed to be in the city. Um, yeah that's made tourists, athletes, et al skittish. Senator Angus King said over the weekend he wouldn't send his family there. A couple other U.S. officials said the Rooskis have not been cooperative in sharing intel because it's politically embarrassing. Sounds like something the Rooskis would do. It may be something the 'Muricans would do, too. Relations between the two countries are low, low, low: Putin's a pig, he and Obama don't get on, Snowden, ooh boy, Snowden, speaking of political embarrassments. These U.S. guys also said they think "it wasn't a coincidence he ended up in Russia," they believe the Rooskis were involved beforehand and Snowden is an "agent." Oooh. As I recall it was coincidence, or a last resort that Snowden ended up in Russia. He was in Hong Kong with nowhere else to go. So, the 'Muricans may be trying to embarrass the Rooskis. If there is an attack on the Olympics however, the Rooskis will never be able to live it down.
