Pressed by ABC News’ Jonathan Karl to comment on a threat made last night on state TV that Russia is still “the only country in the world capable of turning the U.S.A. into radioactive dust,” White House Press Secretary Jay Carney dismissively said, “people say crazy things on TV all the time.”
See below for the full exchange:
JON KARL: And let me ask you just something on — that was on Russian television, state-controlled television, the main state-controlled channel. Dmitry Kiselev, prominent Russian television anchor, posed in front of a mushroom cloud and warned that Russia’s the only country in the world capable of turning the U.S. into radioactive dust.

Gads, I know that the Obamadork cannot hire anyone more intelligent than he...which means he is limited to those with sub room temp IQ.
And wonders why the U.S. is now considered to be non existent.
Sort of like... “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor?”
Yes, and people (Jay) say crazy things all the time in the WH Briefing Room.
ROTFLMAO
CARNEY WOULD KNOW...
He says crazy things all the time, says them with a narky look as well, so we know he is crazy!
C’mon, Zer0 . . . say something back to Putin on YOUR “state-controlled television”. . . .
