Vladimir Putin probably had to wait 20 minutes for an elevator. Yeah, that's the ticket . . .

Josh Earnest, Barack Obama's spokesman, has excused Vladimir Putin's snub of the President of the United States, in which the Russian strongman turned up 20 minutes late for their lunch at the UN yesterday. On today's Morning Joe, Earnest lamely defended Vlad's tardiness: "anybody that's been around the UN during the General Assembly knows it's total chaos inside that building, so people ae running late quite frequently.

I like this from the Comments:

"And politicians and the News Media wonder why no one believes the noise they've spewed for years?

I can imagine this being a security nightmare for every dignitary. All the security people probably have a vodka hangover this morning.

Putin has little respect for our fearless leader.

Pretty sad when the leader of Russia likes America more than our President.

In an American election today, and it's Putin vs. Hussein, I would choose Putin as leader ; no brainer.
