“This is not to say that Russia has a spotless record. As mentioned, a pox on them all – most states only differ in degree, not in direction. Whatever one can say about Putin and about the history of the Russians and the Soviet Union before it – and of course, much can be said – this much is clear, right now, today: Snowden found asylum there, and Putin helped put a stop to the senseless murder of more Syrians. If someone can get a Nobel Peace Prize merely for being elected president, certainly these actions are worthy as well.
In the meantime, Rand Paul has turned this into a black pot calling another black pot black. The US government has plenty of blood on its hands. In this, it is no exception.”
