intoronto 650 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 LOLL thanks Putin for the success of the games. If he didn't enact a law that was against gays then it would have been more successful. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rob. 2038 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) I don't like to hear Bach peddling this "New Russia" rubbish. He should praise the Games' organisation and the athletes which have been exceptional, not parrot Putin's party line. Edited February 23, 2014 by Rob. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JMarkSnow2012 386 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Bach to the volunteers: "your legacy will create a strong civil society in Russia" "efficient and friendly; patriotic and open to the world" Summary: "these were the athletes' games" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lord David 225 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Why is he boosting the Russians excessive use of money. He has to sing praises to Russia, otherwise he'd get his head chopped off or sent to the Gulag! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
