Rarely do we see politicians have this much fun with a serious matter. But Twitter seems to bring out the best in them.
After Russia imposed entry bans on a handful of U.S. politicians, those same politicians took to Twitter to have some fun with it and say they’re proud to be #SanctionedByPutin.
But later in the day, Arizona Sen. John McCain tossed out this gem and mocked the Russian sanctions:
I guess this means my spring break in Siberia is off, Gazprom stock is lost & secret bank account in Moscow is frozen http://t.co/TgwZneD4HY

In an official release, he goes on to say “I will never cease my efforts on behalf of the freedom, independence, and territorial integrity of Ukraine, including Crimea.”
