Adam davidson, reporter for the new yorker. Now time for last word with lawrence odonnell. Good evening. Good evening, rachel. Boy am i glad ive never done business in russia. Doesnt that all sound obvious when you hear it that of course it would work that way. Well and the fact the thing i have learned from adam davidsons reporting at the new yorker is you dont have to be perfect but you do have to look to see if you are really obviously doing dirty business with people who Everybody Knows are dirty. And it doesnt matter if thats okay in their country. It is not okay in the united
