Why,Russia,Why?

Why did you ignore the best advice of your allies and grant asylum to Edward Snowden? Why did you hang on to your Don-Corleone-esque  line of thinking and make him an offer he couldn't refuse? As longtime readers of this blog are no doubt aware, I am willing to look past the Cold War years and thank the Russian people for their  contributions to the worlds of science, music and sports,but when your President, (I repeat, YOUR President!) who refused to let this man in as long as he kept spouting his anti-American propaganda,
goes back  on his word,it's enough to make this freedom-loving American question our friendship. When  the people overthrew the Soviet Union, I was thinking of visiting Moscow and seeing both its iconic landmarks and the fruits of glasnost.  I   begin to question the logic of this plan.
