Taking his career cues from Dennis Rodman and Sean Penn, movie tough guy, judo and swimming enthusiast, and overweight has-been, Steven Seagal, is now BFF with Vladimir Putin. Maybe all the rhetoric is a move to rekindle lost interest in a career that has been banished to Siberia, but Seagal believes that Putin's military actions in Crimea were "very reasonable."
In an interview with Russian language newspaper, Rossiskaya Gazeta, Seagal unabashedly praised Putin, as "one of the greatest living world leaders" and considers him his brother. He might have added: "But if Vladimir wants it to be more than that, well, I'm ready for whatever he's wants."
While Seagal cannot stand Obama and his "idiotic" foreign policy towards Ukraine and Russia, he says that "(Putin's) desire to protect the Russian-speaking people of Crimea, his assets, and the Russian Black Sea military base in Sevastopol . . . is very reasonable."
Comrade Seagal also says that he would like to take a run at governor of Arizona but in an interview with the same Russian newspaper, he claimed that it is possible that he will apply for Russian citizenship "some time" in the future. I suspect that if he does apply, this would hurt is chances of actually winning the nomination for governor. Of course, if he chose to run as a Democrat, it might work out to his advantage.
However, at the end of the day, Seagal says that he's a Republican. He also claims to be patriotic but when asked to define the word he was speechless. I say we should kick the can down the road and throw him under the bus. It's idiots like Seagal that give Republicans a bad name, and idiots like Penn and Rodman that give idiots a bad name.
