US Russian ambass TWEETS concern

  Vladimir Putin, who has a reputation for bizarre wardrobe (or lack of) appearances, has been a sort of enigmatic fellow hanging out in the upper echelons of the Russian political scene.
  Primarily because the citizens of Russia suspect that he's one big fat cheater.
  Before last week's election, there were widespread reports of "irregularities" and Putin's life was dramatically threatened, causing his critics to question the timing of such a plot to engender the sympathy vote. 
  Upon learning he had been elected, Putin dissolved into equally suspicious tears.
  There's so much suspicion about the election that even Al Jazeera is putting scare quotes around the word "win. Even FireDogLake reports:
The Washington Post carries more allegations on the vote, including multiple voting, ballot-stuffing of absentee votes and mistreatment of election observers. This mirrors the allegations from Parliamentary elections in December, which touched off widespread protest around the country, with as many as 120,000 gathering for one demonstration in Moscow.
  So with all these allegations of widespread cheating, voter fraud and lack of voter ID, would there be any question that POTUS AKA Chicago Jesus would call Putin and congratulate him on his "win"?
  Encouraging frauds, fakes, cheats and props is SOP for this ethically challenged politician.
  After all, why would a POTUS support young pro-democracy Iranian protesters who begged him for support? Or Egyptian? Or Syrian? 
  These protesters around the world have been using Twitter and Facebook to express concerns about hard lined crackdowns and government perpetrated violence because social media are the only ways to get information and images out in some countries where rights are increasingly being challenged by dictatorships and government thugs.
  Now, apparently, government officials in the still Free World are doing the same, presumably because they can do it while lying on the couch.
  Thus an Obama underling tweeted concernedly about the fate of imprisoned anti Putin protesters.
  And there ya go.
  A foreign policy.
  That supports democracy.
  Plain as the nose on your face.
