There is considerable irony involved when a Russian warns Americans against what is taking place before their eyes as President Obama seeks to transform and ultimately acquire dictatorial powers by a series of steps that are both bold and obvious. In April, Stanislav Mishin’s post on his blog, Mat Rodina, was published in Pravda.

What followed was an experiment in Communism that killed millions of Russians as a succession of dictators, starting with Lenin, sought to impose an economic and political system that simply does not work.

"“Prime Minister Putin…warned Obama…not to follow the path to Marxism, it only leads to disaster.”

Never knew that. I'd love a source if anyone knows one.

I’d like to think the army would defy such a power grab and restore order.

Pravda, apparently.

The opinion piece in Pravda, one of the Soviet-era newspapers still published in Russia, carried the headline, “American Capitalism Gone with a Whimper,” and was written by Stanislav Mishin, who runs the blog “Mat Rodina.”

Pretty fun reading actually...

I agree. The Armed Forces would defy a power grab.
