Stephanopoulos:
OMG Russia
invaded
Ukraine! it's another cold war!
Audience:
ooh
Stephanopoulos:
Russia has
taken
over Crimean navy bases
Audience:
oh noe not crimea
Marquardt:
Russia has demanded
Ukraine
surrender Navy bases
Stephanopoulos:
it's so fucking
on
right now
Marquardt:
the UN Security Council
is
meeting in an emergency session
but
Putin says he is defending
Russians
in Ukraine
Stephanopoulos:
wow
Marquardt:
pro-Russia activists
are
beating people up
Stephanopoulos:
this is clearly
a
challenge to America
Moran:
Putin hosted the Olympics to
show
off a new open Russia then
he
invaded Crimea
Stephanopoulos:
so that's a change then
Moran:
in 2008 he invaded Georgia
to
defend Russians there and
now
he's doing it again
Stephanopoulos:
it's a pattern then
Moran:
Ukraine is divided –
some
want to be part of Europe
and
some want to be a Russian satellite
Obama:
there will be costs to military intervention
McCain:
Obama has been naive with regard to Putin
Moran:
to be fair George Bush said
he
looked into Putin's soul and found
a
good man and then Putin invaded Georgia
McCain:
grrrrrr
Stephanopoulos:
Secretary Kerry –
is
this a disaster?
Kerry:
we hope not
Stephanopoulos:
that's it?
Kerry:
this is an act of aggression
against
another country!
Stephanopoulos:
we can't have that
Kerry:
it's a 19th
century act
Stephanopoulos:
so what's penalty?
Kerry:
Obama told Putin we don't
want
war but he shouldn't invade
Stephanopoulos:
so how did that go?
Kerry:
if Putin is really concerned
about
the safety of Russian speakers
in
Ukraine then he can file a complaint
with
the appropriate authorities
Stephanopoulos:
would the US
impose
sanctions?
Kerry:
absolutely
Stephanopoulos:
what else?
Kerry:
we will call on Congress
to
lay down with us
Stephanopoulos:
excellent
Kerry:
also NATO will weigh in heavily
Stephanopoulos:
what about economic
sanctions
on Russia?
Kerry:
damn right – we are
deadly
serious about this
Stephanopoulos:
you sound mad
Kerry:
right – you can't just invade
another
country in the 21st
century
Stephanopoulos:
but the invasion
has
already happened
Kerry:
we think Putin should
roll
that back
Stephanopoulos:
will the US use
military
force to defend Ukraine
like
George Bush pretended to?
Kerry:
we are prepared to work
with
Russia – they should be allowed
to
keep their naval bases in Crimea
Stephanopoulos:
do you have any
indication
that Putin is backing down
under
America's manly masculinity?
Kerry:
Stephy this is not Russia vs the USA
Stephanopoulos:
it's not?
Kerry:
no it's about the brave
Ukrainians
dodging sniper bullets
Stephanopoulos:
good luck with that
Kerry:
does Putin really want
to
be globally isolated just
because
he lost his buddy?
Stephanopoulos:
would the US skip
the
G8 summit in Sochi this summer?
Kerry:
you bet
Stephanopoulos:
okay
Kerry:
look we've worked with
Russia
on other things but
this
is too much
Stephanopoulos:
thanks
[
break ]
Stephanopoulos:
Martha what's
really
being considered?
Raddatz:
Putin is good at judo and chess
– he
knew the west would do nothing
if
he invaded Crimea
Stephanopoulos:
amazing
Raddatz:
he already got his Olympics
– so
he got what he wanted
[
break ]
Stephanopoulos:
what will Congress do?
Kinzinger:
we must be strong!
Stephanopoulos:
I see
Kinzinger:
we can respond militarily
but
we should put Georgia in NATO
so
we can threaten Russia with war
and
mean it
Stephanopoulos:
I like it
Reporter:
Corporate America
told
Arizona to stop hating gays
Stephanopoulos:
wow
Reporter:
then a Texas judge
struck
down bans on marriage
Stephanopoulos:
Cokie it seems like
the
culture is changing on the gays
Roberts:
businesses were
freaking
out over the hate
Lowry:
this was a great law –
it
just protected religious freedom
like
Ted Kennedy wanted
Jones:
it was an anti-gay law Richie
Stephanopoulos:
I see
Jones:
the idea you would say
'we
don't serve your kind' is
offensive
and outdated
Stephanopoulos:
even for the Irish?
Lowry:
making someone serve
a
gay person coffee is not a burden
but
baking a gay person a cake is
Jones:
he's an idiot
Lowry:
if you refuse to serve
a
gay person coffee you're
an
idiot but if you refuse to
serve
them toast you're a genius
Kinzinger:
the NFL threatened to
pull
the SuperBowl –
the
free market worked!
Stephanopoulos:
what about live
and
let live – tolerance for intolerance?
Jones:
because if your businesses
is
open to everyone it should be open to all
Lowry:
this is not like Jim Crow
because
you always find a gay florist
Stephanopoulos:
and that's the last word
