Crimean parliament voted to rejoin Russia and scheduled a referendum in ten days. Now that's democracy in contrast to the anti-democratic, violent coup that overthrew the Ukrainian government.

In upside-down world, the US is constantly on the wrong side of history. EU does the same.

The most lawless president in memory says the Crimean referendum violates international law. Didn't take long for him to reject democracy in Crimea.
