One assumes heads of state possess some degree of propriety, at least one should be able to presume such, but no, so many are just oafish chavs in expensive suits.
The YouTube version is subtitled (cc) if this one is not. Check it out on YouTube if you like and see what this no-class jerk says.
Not knowing what Putin said had some viewers taking a stab at translation. One viewer on another site remarked that Putin said that he hadn't seen the Sia Chandelier video. That got a good laugh.
The Sia Chandelier video is controversial because it depicts a young girl of twelve years of age dancing in skin-colored leotard and to admit being fascinated, admit liking the video is tantamount to admitting being a paedo-perv.
So pretend you don't like it.
So pretend you don't like it.
The song is about Sia's addiction to alcohol. It is a powerful and beautiful song. The dancing is showing Sia's state of mind, the house, her spirit, in the grip of addiction, a naked girl buffeted between moods of happiness and depression. Swinging by the chandelier is doing whatever she wants under influence of alcohol, shown in the dance. Sia contemplates suicide in real life, shown by the curtains drawn to the girl's neck and waving goodbye. Finally calmed, still depressed but learning to live without addiction. The lyrics clarify the dance, the dance gives form to the lyrics and the immature girl appropriate. The dance is outstanding.

Angie's thinking, "I won't wait till the end of June to launch Barbarossa II, I won't screw around all spring in the Balkans, and I won't take any side trips on the way to Moscow".

Well, I couldn't access the english translation of what Putin said, but whatever he said, Merkel's look was a very strong answer and completely within the parameters of proper diplomatic conduct. How does that make her a "chav?"
I didn't like the way the pop-up ads kept blocking my attempts to spot her cooter.
Sia, I mean, not Merkin.
I mean Merkel.
Italians instinctively have "the look." Joe Torre was superb giving "the look" to his players, worse than a tongue lashing. If you didn't carry yourself like a Yankee, Joe D gave you "the look." My old man had "the look." I did not realize until I had kids that I had it as well. My daughter called it "yelling w/ my eyes." Then, my bride, who I had been married to for years, chimed in, "That look is a killer." Merkel has it.
WTF ever happened about this stone cold killer shooting down the airliner???
Posting Putin alongside the video of the young dancer reminds me of Russian author Vladimir Nabokov's "Lolita", about middle aged Humbert Humbert going after 12 yr old Dolores Haze.
I'll lose pervert points for saying this but a twelve year old girl who looks like a twelve year old girl is not sexy. However, a college age girl who looks slightly prepubescent is hot.......Merkel has a likable look. She's not especially good looking but she looks trustworthy and decent. I wonder if sex appeal isn't a debit for women seeking higher office. It interferes with their message.
Maybe she simply had a bad sausage at lunch.
Merkel's an odd one. Like when she once said, when asked what about what feelings Germany awakened in her, that she thought of "of well-sealed windows. No other country can make such well-sealed and nice windows.”
Was that ironic? A perfect metaphor for Germany's desire for stability? Or does her heart truly swell when she thinks of German ingenuity?

Well, like everything else threatened by this administration. Nothing.
