  1. LynchPin1477   9 years ago

    YES! WELCOME BACK NAOMI!

    1. MJGreen - Docile Citizen   9 years ago

      But why would anyone cover up that red hair?

      1. Zeb   9 years ago

        There are plenty of red haired Russians.

  2. Trouser-Pod (The blowhard)   9 years ago

    Would....(did I do that right?)

    1. Adans smith   9 years ago

      Or wood.

      1. Trouser-Pod (The blowhard)   9 years ago

        Duly noted!

    2. Chipper Morning Wood   9 years ago

      Vould

      1. Entropy Drehmaschine Void   9 years ago

        All of the above.

        Love Soviet-Red Lipstick.

        1. PapayaSF   9 years ago

          Oh yeah.

  3. Scarecrow & WoodChipper Repair   9 years ago

    I'd like to see this go nationwide, as a real political ad, just to see the Bernie burn. Oh man, the college campus safety spaces would be overflowing, Republicans wouldn't know what the proper reaction would be, Hillary wouldn't know whether to be mad or be glad.

    She trumps Trump for entertainment, that's for sure.

  4. Libertarian   9 years ago

    Why oh why oh why are Russian accents so sexy? Personally, I blame Rocky and Bullwinkle.

    1. Ska   9 years ago

      I have a Russian girl and French girl working for me, both are in their mid twenties, 5'10 and 6' tall. The client LOVES when we show up for meetings. It's just very... distracting.

      1. Libertarian   9 years ago

        QUIT BRAGGING.

    2. Adans smith   9 years ago

      I like the Brit's accent,like Hayley Atwell..Then again,I saw Stana Katic do a Russian accent on Castle and would.

      1. GILMORE?   9 years ago

        Aussie

        1. LynchPin1477   9 years ago

          Yes

        2. Isaac Bartram   9 years ago

          Good God Almighty, I cannot think of any sound in the English-speaking world that is more grating than an Australian/NZ accent.

          I say this as someone who acquired one since my parents took me to the land down under before I could speak. Today if i go to OZ I'm just another bloody seppo tourist but when I get on the plane back to the USA the flight attendants ask me if this is my first trip to America.

          1. Libertarian   9 years ago

            Hey, brother! I don't like Australian accents either. They, somehow, remind me of certain southern (USA) accents. Australia is also one of the very few countries I have no desire to visit.

            1. Suthenboy   9 years ago

              Certain southern accents?

              *narrows gaze*

              1. matth   9 years ago

                I love the West Bank (New Orleans) accent. Although that may have been because Of that one girl...

          2. GILMORE?   9 years ago

            "I cannot think of any sound in the English-speaking world that is more grating than an Australian/NZ accent"

            How much variety in the english-speaking world have you really been exposed to?

            Spend enough time around Mancunians and a Geordies and I promise you that you'd eventually insting that Aussies have one of the most sonorous and musical lilts ever to bless the English language.

            Plus, the Aussies would have a decent chance of being more sober and less racist. Which is a truly a remarkable thing.

            1. Isaac Bartram   9 years ago

              Unintelligible and unpleasant are not the same.

              The various urban and rustic dialects one encounters in Britain might be the former but none seems to reach the nails on the blackboard sound of stryne. (YMMV)

              1. Isaac Bartram   9 years ago

                After all, Italian in unintelligible to the no-speaker but is widely praised as the most lyrical of tongues.

          3. Rhywun   9 years ago

            I love that accent. Some of the more "extreme" varieties can be trying but that's true anywhere.

            1. Rhywun   9 years ago

              E.g. Manchester and Newcastle...

              1. GILMORE?   9 years ago

                I had to work with them for *years*. You try having a cunference call wiffat, m8. isslike I kneeted bleeding soobtitles.

          4. Tom Bombadil   9 years ago

            "Good God Almighty, I cannot think of any sound in the English-speaking world that is more grating than an Australian/NZ accent."

            +1MILLION TRUE DAT.

            Pro tip. 99% of Aussies DO NOT sound like Mel Gibson in Mad Max.

            1. Isaac Bartram   9 years ago

              Which version? The North American release (which was dubbed) or the original original Australian version.

              Most Australians don't sound like Mel Gibson anyway since he didn't move there until he was in his teens. He had to trained to do an OZ accent to do films there (like Gallipoli).

              1. Isaac Bartram   9 years ago

                "be trained"

    3. Rufus The Monocled Derp Slayer   9 years ago

      Don't you technically mean Boris and Natasha?

      Regardless. Love R&B.

      1. Libertarian   9 years ago

        Well, TECHNICALLY, just Natasha. (but I hear that Rocky and Bullwinkle were the brains behind the show, similar to Rowan and Martin's Laugh In.

        1. Rufus The Monocled Derp Slayer   9 years ago

          Technically.

    4. MSimon   9 years ago

      My grandpa had a Russian accent. That is because he was from Russia.

  5. Aresen   9 years ago

    Is most excellent.

    Next, Irina Alexandrovevskivich will show how Bernie Sanders will end global warming by creating one State Oil company which will not produce oil.

    1. Adans smith   9 years ago

      And if he ran the Sahara he'd have a sand shortage?

  6. Diane Reynolds (Paul.)   9 years ago

    I remember the guy who said-- without a smidge of irony-- that things were better when everyone queued up in Soviet Russia, because it "brought people together".

    1. Tornado16nb   9 years ago

      Was this comrade sanders?

      1. Diane Reynolds (Paul.)   9 years ago

        No it was just some guy who had a photo exhibition of people lined up in the Soviet Union-- if I recall.

        1. Tornado16nb   9 years ago

          Ah. Cause i saw sanders said a similar thing back in the 1980s

    2. Chipper Morning Wood   9 years ago

      Auschwitz also brought people together.

    3. But Enough About Me   9 years ago

      They say the same crap about Cuba. When I was last in Cuba, none of the locals thought shortages were a good thing.

    4. AlmightyJB   9 years ago

      Sounds like aomething Tom Freidman would say except he would invoke some nonsensical metaphor.

  7. sarcasmic   9 years ago

    I bet she "brocks" very well.

    1. AlmightyJB   9 years ago

      I am going to go ahead and agree with you even though I have no idea what that means.

  8. Charles Easterly   9 years ago

    "In Russia, alcohol drink you."

    Nice.

    I enjoyed the entire video, and will send it to on.

  9. Rufus The Monocled Derp Slayer   9 years ago

    BUT BERNIE SANDERS IS NOT TRUE SOCIALISM!

    1. Pay up, Palin's Buttplug!   9 years ago

      Nope? he has a corporatist twist.

      1. AlmightyJB   9 years ago

        Like Mussolini?

  10. Rockabilly   9 years ago

    I like that central committee will have DEA arrest me for smoking some reefer and sent to gulag because central committee knows what's best for me, a mere peasant.

  11. MSimon   9 years ago

    My Mom, a Democrat since the New Deal, went to the Sanders rally in Lincoln,Nebraska yesterday. She said the line stretched around the block. She was given a front row seat because she is 96. She was thrilled to be there.

    Well I'm not so excited. But what can I do? I still love my Mom.

    1. But Enough About Me   9 years ago

      Understandable. My Mom (God rest her soul) was a card-carrying Liberal Party of Canada member 'til the day she died. Love her anyways.

    2. Suthenboy   9 years ago

      I have a similar problem.

    3. Rhywun   9 years ago

      My mom voted for Carter then Reagan. She was also variously some form of Protestant then Catholic alternating with nothing. Bless her non-TEAM heart.

  12. But Enough About Me   9 years ago

    WOULD. TOTES WOULD!

    She could interrogate me in the Kremlin Any. Time. She. Wants.

  13. Suthenboy   9 years ago

    I have been on about this since 2008. I started bitching then because I could not believe anyone would support Obumbles who was widely acknowledged to be a socialist before getting into the presidential race. He was being touted as the most brilliant man alive and all I could see was a booger eating moron and wild-eyed fanatics supporting him. At least then he had to hide the fact and could not openly declare himself such the way Bernie is.

    Only an idiot or a cynical power monger would be a fan of socialism. It has been demonstrated over and over and over again that it doesnt fucking work. It didn't work yesterday, it doesnt work today and it will not work tomorrow. Invariably it produces misery and poverty and oppression. We have seen this before and we are seeing it now.

    I am glad I don't know any socialists personally because I am afraid I would find it irresistible to slap them to the floor.

    And just for good measure: Fuck every single idiot who voted Obama. Given the bent the party has taken on and the undiluted awfulness of their current candidate I will probably soon amend that to 'Fuck every single idiot who voted Democrat'.

    1. PapayaSF   9 years ago

      I've got to live and work in San Francisco with many of them. I generally speak of politics obliquely, if at all. I recently had a nice first date suddenly turn sour because, when asked about the election, I said I disliked them all. What about Bernie Sanders? Him, too.

      Oops.

      1. Tom Bombadil   9 years ago

        You read enough Reason to know that Bernie Dudes get the chicks, right?

        1. PapayaSF   9 years ago

          Yeah, but I'm not going to lie to get laid.

        2. AlmightyJB   9 years ago

          Kind of odd considering how poorly he does with women at the polls.

    2. BigT   9 years ago

      Supporting Hillary?

  14. Hyperion   9 years ago

    Wow, who's the milf?

    1. PapayaSF   9 years ago
