A far-right Russian politician is facing legal problems after ordering two of his aides to ‘violently rape’ a pregnant Russia Today journalist in front of other reporters at a press conference.

Vladimir Zhironovsky, of the pro-Kremlin Liberal Democratic Party, launched into an animated tirade against RT journalist Stella Dubovitskaya, – who is six months pregnant – after she asked him an innocuous questions about possible sanctions against the pro-Western government of Ukraine, according to the Daily Mail.

Responding to her question, Zhironovsky grabbed two of his male aides, telling them, “When I say, you run to her and violently rape her” before shoving them in her direction and shouting: “Go and kiss her. Grab her.”

Male and female journalists in attendance were shocked at the outburst with one male journalist asking, “She is pregnant, why are you attacking her?”

God I loathe these fuckers.

5. I'm confused and admittedly ignorant of Russian politics. .

"A far-right Russian politician" seems at odds with "Liberal Democratic Party"....which is it?

10. Just like conservatives in the US

They call themselves the opposite of what they are in hopes of fooling those who don't look too closely. For example, fiscal conservative, the law and order party, real advocates for the middle class, etcetera, etcetera. Ad nauseum

12. We have a "Liberal" party in BC

That is a right wing neo-corporatist party. They are more closely allied with the federal Conservatives than with the federal Liberals.

6. megalomania.

we really, as a species, have to learn to recognize these unevolved big apes for what they are or we are on a dead end evolutionary spiral.
leadership for the human tribe is more than leadership for a troop of apes.
lets start to respond to that, shall we?
