My boys prefer this version of Sochi:

Ice skating has been great though!

This is why I was referencing EE specifically. Putin largely cares about his power in EE first, and lets the US tank itself with the rest of Europe.

Lately, from what I've heard, my EU friends still hate Putin more than us.  It's not like the U.S. government isn't working hard to close the gap, but we just don't have the capacity to be assholes to the EU quite as directly as an actual nation in Europe can be.

It may depend on the country. Nobody really hates Russia around here, but most people have a strong dislike for the US, which is probably a cultural thing (I don't because I actually happen to know people from the US... which is rather telling the ignorance). However, they love Obama and dislike Putin to no end. vOv

UK is an odd ball in that regard me thinks. But for latin countries, they never really liked the US.

That's because we're crazy and find a great deal of pleasure in  laughing at other countries.

:Russians: and :Yanks:

Y'all are kind of used to our bullshit by now.  I imagine Dave Cameron's cabinet laughing their asses off at the shock that the American government may have hacked Angela Merkel's phone.  There are sixteen year olds in the Qatar hacking her phone, of course we're going to do it.  The CIA would hack Milliband's unused AOL account account if they're bored enough.

I think most of Europe goes  at the US and UK both.

At this point America is so much better at :sneaking: than we are, I'd be amazed if Mr. Cameron expected anything less than American spying on literally everyone. Especially us

But seriously, the state of the English parliment right now is laughable. There is no majority because all three of the main parties are extremely unpopular. The Conservatives are tearing down all the work Labour tried to do over the last decade and throwing the country into turmoil as they do it (my poor NHS:( ), Lib Dems are seen as utterly useless, and Labour just don't have the personalities at the helm to properly challenge the Conservatives.

My plan is to abandon ship and find somewhere less insane to live.

I think most of Europe goes  at the US and UK both.

We wouldn't have it any other way 

And to bring it back to Sochi, this camera man knows exactly what he's doing:
