A potential pick for secretary of state dismissed human rights abuses in Russia during a heated exchange with a Yahoo anchor Wednesday.
“When you talk about human rights abusers in China much can be said about Russia as well in that regard,” said Yahoo’s finance anchor Bianna Golodryga.
“Oh, baloney! Where do you come from? How can you say that?” asked GOP California Congressman Dana Rohrabacher.
Golodryga responded by explaining that she came to the U.S. as a political refugee from the former Soviet Union.
“Oh, well then that’s good, then the audience knows that you are biased,” Rohrabacher replied.
Setting aside the validity of the charges for a moment,when the HELL did the US become responsible for humans rights violations in Russia,China,or anywhere else on the freaking planet that isn't named "The United States of America"?
