Dear Mom,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What kind of Prime Minister tweets about a TV show when the rest of the world \u2013 especially the rest of the political world \u2013 is in total shock and mourning over the murder of Russian opposition leader Boris Nemtsov<\/a>?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alex Stubb<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People here are totally freaking out about a tweet<\/a> Stubb posted on Saturday night saying: \u201cAfter a hard week, it was nice to relax and watch #Kingi. I had a great laugh. Still smiling. It really is entertaining. Amazing bunch.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat a moron\u201d, \u201cI hate him\u201d, and \u201cIt would be funny if it wasn\u2019t so scary\u201d are just a few of the comments I\u2019ve seen. Stubb happened to tweet about Kingi at exactly the same time Sweden\u2019s ex-Prime Minister and ex-Foreign Minister Carl Bildt tweeted his condolences. Yeah, it looked kinda’ bad. But Stubb had already released a statement<\/a> hours earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like most people \u2013 including the thousands of people who marched in rainy Moscow today \u2013 I\u2019m saddened, outraged and scared by Nemtsov\u2019s murder. I mean, God (and no, I\u2019m not referring to Putin) only knows how far Russia could go. And for Finns and everyone else living next door, that\u2019s a particularly scary thought. That said, I\u2019m still planning to watch and enjoy Homeland tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I spent eight years getting a Masters degree in politics. One of the biggest things I took away from all those lectures and the thousands of pages I read (and my internships at the White House and U.N., I might add) is that to be a good politician you also have to spend time doing things outside of politics. Because when all is said and done, that\u2019s really what politics is all about \u2013 life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personally, what worries me isn\u2019t that Stubb was watching Kingi while the world was focused on Nemtsov\u2019s death. It\u2019s that he actually finds it funny! But I guess the millions of Finns out there who agree with him can\u2019t be wrong (well… yes they can).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And to Alex, I\u2019d say what Teddy Roosevelt once said: \u201cThe most successful politician is he who says what the people are thinking most often in the loudest voice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And isn\u2019t that what Twitter is, after all?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
