I remember Putin stating in an interview that he repeatedly warned Clinton himself about the increasing dangers of terrorism, but Clinton ignored him.

From the way Puting said it, he was totally disgusted with Clinton because of this.

That is why he embraced Bush, a President who finally recognizes and fights terror.

I hope Putin will re-think helping the Iranians acquire nukes.

I was in Russia repeatedly during Klintoon's administration. The Russians thought he was a huge joke. Remember when they had him speak to their Duma and there were only a few people who even showed up? Then they never applauded at all, just sat there with wooden faces. Some got up and left halfway through.

In all the kiosks were Matrushka dolls with Clinton's women faces, starting with Monika, and each successive doll had another of the women on it, Jennifer Flowers, etc, till you got to Hillary in the very center as the smallest doll. In retrospect I should have picked a few of these up.

I think Putin has had his hands somewhat tied by the old guard. THIS however has cut him free.
