Macho Putin in yet ANOTHER display of masculinity as he releases 'Let's learn judo with Vladimir' DVD

First we saw him shirtless while fishing.

Then he was pictured at the wheel of a massive racing truck and shooting a tiger in the Siberian forest with a tranquiliser.

He has also appeared operating a train, sailing on a submarine and co-piloting a fighter jet.

Now Vladimir Putin - the world's most manly leader - has released yet another display of his own masculinity: a DVD entitled 'Let's learn judo with Vladimir Putin'.

Today he presented the instructional judo DVD that shows him throwing an opponent to the mat.

'Let's Learn Judo with Vladimir Putin' is the product of collaboration between Putin - a black belt - and former World and Olympic judo champion Yasuhiro Yamashita.

At a nighttime presentation minutes into his 56th birthday, Putin said the title was little more than an 'advertising trick'.

Anyone who watches it 'will be learning not from your humble servant but from real geniuses' of the martial art, he said.

But portions shown on Russian television depicted a black-clad Putin talking about the history and philosophy of judo, as well as a white-robed Putin demonstrating moves against a practice partner.

This guy is sounding more and more unstable by the day. It’s not easy to develop a containment policy for irrational actors.

The missing quote.

“I throw comrade Obama with Russian judo move. Judo invented in Russia. I challenge him to cage match. I want Obama to be US president very much.

Sarah Palin, I not so much want to meet her in dark alley. She scare me.”

I heard that he was taking on Kimbo Slice for pay per view. Now that's a definite indicator that the Ruskies need hard cash!

Putin has a serious case of short man syndrome.

Honestly? I’d take Putin over Slice. Now Chuck Liddell, yeah, he’d kick Putin’s ass.

And the cult of Putinality rolls on...

Putin wants to project a real machismo image. I bet he doesn't even eat quiche.

If he weren't such a Commie, I'd probably prefer him to any Democrat in the Country.
