Americans aren't the only ones smirking at Mooselini's claims of expertise in Russian affairs. The Russians think its hilarious.
Highly unflattering articles in major papers -- some quoting Russian cabinet ministers --- denounce Caribou Barbie as "a Mrs. Nobody Know-it-All," a "catastrophe," and a "housewife," and blast her "dubious logic of linking Alaska's proximity to Russia" to her boasts of foreign policy creds. There's more:
Russian daily newspaper Izvestiya published a piece related to Palin's claims that Barack Obama had ties to terrorists. The author commented that [Failin] had embarked on a personal attack against Obama because she was unable comment on the crucial issues facing America today, like the ongoing financial crisis.
Unsubtle as these comments are, they do point to an important implication for Palin: she needs to back up her claims with facts if she expects to be taken seriously in the U.S. or abroad. Unfortunately, to date the governor has done little to quell concerns.

In a related story, Ms Palin says Obama "would diminish the prestige of the United States Presidency," you betcha. Palin. Sarah "wink wink" Failin. Caribou "I can see Vladimir's house from here!" Barbie.
In what respect, Charlie?
