So we’ve seen the ballots for the Crimean vote and they’re sorta like an election in Chicago.
The ballot asks two questions and leaves no option for a “no” vote. Voters are simply asked to check one of two boxes:
Do you support joining Crimea with the Russian Federation as a subject of Russian Federation?
And:
Do you support restoration of 1992 Crimean Constitution and Crimea’s status as a part of Ukraine?
So what’s the problem?
That Constitution declares that Crimea is an independent state.
There’s no option for “Just leave us alone”.
You have to choose to be part of Russia now or become “independent” with tens of thousands of Russian soldiers in your “independent state”.
That would be much funnier if it wasn’t so serious.
I know President Putin seems to have a different set of lawyers making a different set of interpretations, but I don’t think that’s fooling anybody.”
Lawyers? He’s skipping lawyers and money and just sending guns.
Obama’s an incompetent fool as is obvious to anybody not of our self-proclaimed elite.
