1. Now THAT'S an endorsement worthy of headlines!

Did you ever think you'd type those words?

I proudly stand with Pussy Riot!

[Vattel]

2. Lol, I too proudly stand with Pussy Riot!

[Art_from_Ark]

7. ура, Пусси Райот!

[Vattel]

10. lo siento Ark, no hablo ruso.

Pero gracias (I think)

[Art_from_Ark]

18. It means "Hooray, Pussy Riot!"

[Vattel]

19. sweet!

If it had meant "Putin rocks!", I would have had to reply with another Pussy Riot lyric:

“Be loyal to Putin forever”, Ms.Tolokonnikova raps softly. “You want to get away with murder, be loyal to your boss”

[Art_from_Ark]

21. I don't think you'll ever see me write "Putin rocks!"

in English or Russian

But for reference, Putin is spelled Путин in Russian.

And Pussy Riot is Пусси Райот

[Vattel]

24. I wonder why their tweet was partly in Spanish.

Thanks for the Russian lesson!

[Fawke Em]

30. Paroooskie!

LOL. Spelled it like it sounds. My husband is fluent. I know some.

[Art_from_Ark]

34. по-русски !

Россияне говорят по-русски!

Yeah, I'm a beginner

[Vattel]

36. Is that like a perogie?

[Art_from_Ark]

63. If your husband is fluent in Russian,

maybe he can tell me what the wolf is saying starting at 18:53 in this cartoon, and what the rabbit says in reply:

[Vattel]

3. Is it possible people don't know Pussy Riot?

They spent time in prison for their courage in Russia. This endorsement actually means something to me.

[beam me up scottie]

12. I'll never forget how the police beat them in Sochi - in front of the whole world.

Courageous women.

[Vattel]

[Dem2]

5. That's a riot!

Haha, but that's awesome, I love them.

[dimple]

8. Gross.

What's next, an endorsement from Slavoj Zizek?

[malokvale77]

25. Hmmm. nt

[Arazi]

9. I want to see Bernie posing with this group of strong courageous activists

What a picture!

[Vattel]

11. His campaign did retweet the endorsement

[merrily]

32. A presidential campaign retweeting an endorsement from a group called Pussy Riot! Gotta love it.

No one dare accuse him of leading from behind.

(Yeah, I said it.)

[ejbr]

35. !!!

[merrily]

38. I know, right? Not as serious as most of my posts.

[Duval]

51. But totally news worthy!

This should put to rest the notion of Bernie being a "pinko". After all, the endorsement comes from an anti-Putin group.

[merrily]

56. The endorsement is newsworthy. My post was a triple entendre that I

hope is not newsworthy.

[Nanjeanne]

13. They are great! Love this. Real fighters.

[Vattel]

26. They are tough as a bowling alley. (No, I won't explain the metaphor.)

[merrily]

29. I think we get it.

[Vattel]

31. lol, sorry for underestimating you!

[merrily]

33. No worries. I get that a lot, especially from my sister, but I digresss....

[TheBluestEye]

14. Now, this is big! Take that Gloria Steinem and Madeline Albright...

Young women bravely choosing Hell over Hillary!

[Vattel]

15. wow, nicely said!

[cleopotrick]

16. The Pussy Riot endorsement is huuuuuuge humanitarian-in-chief kudos eom

[Admiral Loinpresser]

20. KnR! n/t

[liberal_at_heart]

22. oh, hell yeah!

[myrna minx]

23. K&R - wonderful!

[merrily]

27. They are indeed the real deal. They're risking everything all the time.

[wendylaroux]

28. PUSSY RIOT!!!!!!!!

I like it!!

[Jack Rabbit]

37. We standly proudly with Pussy Riot in their endorsement of Bernie Sanderrs for POTUS

And let us also consider endorsing Mariya Alyokhina for President of Russia.

[madokie]

39. And we're fighting for freedom here

With a Bernie Presidency it will make the whole world much safer for all inhabitants. And that is a fact

[wildeyed]

41. As Pussy Riot goes,

so goes the nation!

[Vattel]

42. ROFL

Polls, smolls, Pussy Riot is way more predictive!

[dimple]

44. They're very unpopular in their own country

But they say prophets are never accepted in their hometown. Prophets and chicken-fuckers.

[wildeyed]

45. Chicken-fuckers?

Whaaaa????

[Vattel]

61. They are radical feminists. They do protests in churches. Not the path to popularity,

but that doesn't make their message wrong.

[malthaussen]

43. Pretty sure they don't get a vote. n/t

[Vattel]

50. They do if I marry them so they can get US citizenship!!

[malthaussen]

53. Nah. It takes six years or something to get a green card.

Did you want to marry all of them, or just one in particular? I hear Utah is lovely this time of year.

-- Mal

[Vattel]

57. They do if I married them six years ago!

[Bill USA]

46. You've gotta admit, they've got a 'killer' name. LOL!

[whistler162]

47. Who does Dog Stampede endorse

is more important.

[Vattel]

58. What about Cock Melee?

[blackspade]

48. I proudly stand with Pussy Riot!

[Zorra]

54. Love those crazy and courageous activist women!

[WillyT]

55. LOL !!! - Oh... This Is Gonna Get HIGHlarious !!!

I too, stand with PUSSY RIOT !!!

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

59. But..but...they aren't REAL Feminists....or something.

[frylock]

60. I love seeing people who believe that Hillary is brave being dismissive of these young women.

[noiretextatique]

64. it's the clinton way!

can't beat 'em, tear 'em down.

[Plucketeer]

62. Riotus Pussy

I'll go along with that!

[polly7]
