"It's The Least That Decency Demands"

By Sniffles

Ever since we cats saw this disgusting picture two days ago, we've been wondering if Vladimir Putin knows how screwed he is.

And then we heard that he put out a wheedling statement at 1:40 AM, "calling" for an investigation of the MH17 shoot-down. He must be feeling the heat from a world recoiling in horror — not just at the vision of drunken, ski-mask-wearing hooligans looting the crash site, but at the thought of innocent people's bodies lying for days in Ukrainian fields before being callously tossed around in black garbage bags.

Sadly, it wasn't Pootie's earlier treatment of Russian gays and lesbians (much lauded by the right wing here in the US) that's brought such condemnation on his stupid head. But if Europe is willing to agree to tougher sanctions and if FIFA takes the next World Cup away from him, we won't argue.

Meanwhile, our President took to the microphones this morning to keep the pressure on. But first, he signed an executive order protecting LGBT federal employees — which was an extra-delicious repudiation of everything Pootie stands for. We cats PURR.
