Madonna is a 'slut', says Russia's deputy Prime Minister

"slut" after she used a St Petersburg concert to show support for Pussy Riot, the radical punk band currently on trial for singing a protest song against the president, Vladimir Putin.

On Twitter, Rogozin wrote: "With age, every former s. tries to lecture everyone on morality." While he didn't use the whole word for "slut", just an initial, Russian speakers are clear that was what he meant.

As the Sun reports, he added: "Either take off your cross, or put on your knickers."

Earlier, at a Moscow gig on Tuesday, Madonna performed one song wearing a balaclava in emulation of the punk collective, who are awaiting a verdict. She also had the words 'Pussy Riot' written on her bare back.

She told the audience: "I know there are many sides to every story and I mean no disrespect to the church or the government, but I think these girls ... have done something courageous and they have paid the price for this act and I pray for their freedom."

What a turn around from the bad old Soviet days -

Now the Russian prime minister and the American president have reversed positions.

The Russian, Putin, has become the non-politically correct straight talker.

And America is saddled with Obama, who spews his egalitarian dialectic and babbles on about his socialist utopian fantasies.

For all their faults, the Russians have an admirable knack for calling a spade a spade.

Gotta hand it to the Russians. They’re blunt and to the point. Good on them.

Madonna is not only a slut, but an old, worn-out slut. Kinda like throwing a hotdog down a hallway worn-out.

Check this out, regarding the upcoming 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi:

From Wikipedia:

“Since the establishment of a Pride House at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, pavilions welcoming and celebrating LGBTQ athletes and communities have been established at major sporting events including the 2012 Summer Olympics and the 2012 UEFA Euro Cup and future Pride Houses are planned for the 2014 Commonwealth Games, 2015 Pan American Games and the 2014 and 2018 FIFA World Cup events.
An attempt to obtain a Pride House at the 2014 Winter Olympics was struck down by the Ministry of Justice, which refused to approve the registration of the NGO set up to organize the Pride House. The ban was upheld by Krasnodar Krai Judge Svetlana Mordovina on the basis of the Pride House inciting ‘propaganda of non-traditional sexual orientation which can undermine the security of the Russian society and the state, provoke social-religious hatred, which is the feature of the extremist character of the activity’.”

"Either take off your cross, or put on your knickers."

Sage advice

I'm aging.

Soon, I will be on the porch of my house as a bunch of young Lazamataz's post messages on the street, and I'll be yelling at them all crochety-like, saying stuff like, "In *MY* day, we'd HIT it... and we LIKED it! ... ya young punks... GET OFF MT LAWN!!!!"

The recent picture I saw of her on her latest tour just made me cringe. No dignity, no class, just an embarrassment. Why anyone would pay to see an old woman expose herself is just beyond my understanding.

Even that old queen, Elton John, basically said the same thing.

Russians are noted for being blunt, but Germans are so blunt they will usually offend people. Americans are noted for pitching in to whatever work needs to be done. When I was in Russia, many Russians noted that this was one of Americans’ most endearing traits. We don’t care about divisions of labor or recompense, if we see it needs done, we do it. Apparantly that’s a rare thing elsewhere in the world.

Unless it's a Union Shop.

Well, in my defense, I *did* specify *Americans*.

This "band" got in trouble for a blasphemous (and very illegal) act they put on in an Orthodox cathedral rebuilt to symbolize Russia's embrace of its religious past. They deserve a severe sentence.

They obviously believed that making outrageous statements in the US is a "courageous" act.

Now they know that if you want to be courageous, you have to leave the US.

Guess he agrees with what Elton John said last week:

Madonna looks like “a fairground stripper”

In other news..

As a result of comments made recently by a Russian official calling Madonna a slut, US feminist groups are calling for a ban on the importation of Russian Nesting Dolls...a popular sales item at craft stores, attic sales and flea markets.
