Yes, The US Govt. would never have an agenda. I dont regard Russia as some democratic bastion, quite the contrary, but let's not pretend that the U.S is a democratic bastion, its more of an oligarchy compared to most industrialized countries with legalized bribery.

They either have no dignity or are absolutely certain. You can say a lot about Obama but he certainly has dignity.
