Russia hacking us?

Can't be. Why just today the White House said they're still waiting to see "... whether or not [the Russians] want to be a good actor or a bad actor." Apparently everything they've done for the last two-plus years is not up for consideration. Wipe the slate clean and let's see what happens tomorrow, when we'll wipe the slate clean again. Rinse and repeat.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, perhaps the White House could stop trying to call it an aardvark.

And no, I don't claim that we're not guilty of similar transgressions. I'm just as appalled by them as every other decent person is. And I can't change the past. Regardless, two wrongs don't make a right and the fact that we did it to others does not excuse the Russians doing it to us.
