Honesty isn't a strong suit for any politician.

All politicians deny when confronted, but in her case she may be in a state of perpetual denial.

True dat. Politicians are graded on a curve when it comes to honesty. Even on a curve, she's got a low C at best, perhaps an F.

Hillary's diplomatic coup de grace, the "Russian Reset" has gone just twinkly.

I'm sure Putin, et al. had a good snicker over that particular piece of "statecraft."

Oh yes, one can imagine. A nasty, evil snicker. I'm sure.

Oh wait, I was thinking of House of Cards. Never mind.

He actually did - it's on Bloomberg somewhere. He derived particular pleasure from the giant red kindergardenesque "reset button" presented by Ms. Clinton.

Putin is a genuine monster, he doesn't just play one on TV.

But that's not what W said after looking into Putin's soul.

That being said, once a KGB colonel, always a KGB colonel.

Agreed - and W must have seen his own reflection, because Putin has no soul - and that's no joke.

Russia banned Reddit today.
