“That’d be pretty embarrassing for Putin,” the New York Democrat said on MSNBC. “Let our athletes participate but still make a stand.”

It’s the Gay flag that is illegal. Not the Gay people.

The concept of “the straw that broke the camel’s back” is defunct, I guess. EVERY day, more lunacy.

Respect the laws of the host country or pay the price. What would Schumer say to holding a bikini contest in Saudi Arabia?

How could you tell it was the gay flag and not the flag of the latest post-revolution country from Africa?

“That’d be pretty embarrassing for Putin,”That would be pretty embarrassing for the United States. Not at all for Putin and Russia.

This would be so outrageously disrespectful to the host country. Plus like some said above this, not everybody would support this.

I think we should fly flags with Kate Upton’s picture on them.

What class. What a way to act in the host country. Typical American Liberal. Flaunt your sin and shame in everyone’s face and declare it brave and honorable. Woe to those who call evil good!

This obsession with gay issues is absurd. Rome is burning, and the left is hyper focused on a side show.

Hey Chucky, what if not all of our athletes are okay with that? What if some of our athletes are not atheists, but Christian or even Muslim? Will you prohibit them from attending and participating because they don’t support your gay agenda? Why is that lately I find myself agreeing more with what Russia is doing than our administration?

I’m guessing Vlad ain’t about to put up with any of this silliness.

So instead of the American flag he would substitute the Sodom and Gomorrah flag? Lovely. I hope New Yorkers are proud this morning.

“That’d be pretty embarrassing for Putin,” the New York Democrat said on MSNBC. WHOA, *HORRIBLE* misspelling there:
“That’d be pretty embarrassing for America,” the New York Democrat said on MSNBC.
There, that's better.
