  I am not saying this because i think there is some way it could happen, but pointing out the widespread reaction of many to  US  claims of what it is proper or not proper to do.. This kind of outrageous hypocrisy is  a lousy foundation for claims of leadership.

Kerry is now saying the Crimea referendum is  illegitimate under the Ukrainian constitution. Is that the constitution that outlines the legal execution of a coup, or the one that defines an electoral process for leadership?

The main point I am making is the same as what Laura is saying which is what the Fuck is the US doing in this?
