Anyone who thinks Putin’s move advances the rights and influence of the Russian citizen is smoking som kind of mind altering substance.

Is Vlad Putin any relation to that fella Ras Putin, who gave the Russian Imperial Secret Police such fits a few years ago? It must seem to the proletariat “over there,” who are still a lot more dictated-TO than they are dictate-ING, that they’re caught in one of those positive-feedback-loops....also known as a “vicious cycle.”
Surely no one here still thinks the gangbangers call their plundering of the herd “globalism” for no reason. “It’s everywhere you (don’t) want to be.”
HokaHey!

Yes,it would be great “if only”,Bush would disband his rogue administration,but then he wouldn’t know what to do as he might have to think for himself for the first time ever in his life and the thought of that leaves the Decider undecided.

I’d vote for Putin before Bush.
