People power? revolution for more gvt hand outs and the nanny state? Putin wanted to reduce the Russian welfare state - he failed - but that makes him a dicator??? Old people are a powerful lobby in Russia as they are in America and elderly lobbies are our biggest Social Security stumbling block.

Soul Seeker, Dr. Rice is going to bring back Socialisim?

What is this a Communist web site?

jb6, these people are so anti-Russian for any reason it is a reflex - they back WELFARE STATE PROTESTORS over Putin's efforts at welfare reduction and reform.

We must living in the end time where every cop is a criminal and all the sinners, saints.

You people are blinded, Cold War left over delusionals.

You know, I don't know how my name got on the "retired" people's list, but I've been getting swamped by the Save Social Security lobbies. What's funny is that I'm over 3 decades from retirement. Anyways, I can tell you this, those people and their supporters don't give a single damn about the future generation they will bankrupt, not a bit. Their literature is "all about meeeee and screw youuuuu youngsters".

I fully agree. We see it in Americans, Poles, and in Russians too. I was in Russia when the Kurst submarine went down, and immediately the tales of an American submarine being in the area sinking the Kurst made the rounds. These phobias cause everyone in our countries many problems.

An interesting and perhaps perceptive comment. Every scenario should call for fresh analysis. There is not much from the "Democracy uber alles," groupees. This all just illustrates Washington's wisdom, which called not only for avoiding entangling alliances, but also permanent enmity or favoritism towards particular nations.

Putin is an interesting fellow. We all know his past. But here he has stirred antagonistic demonstrations not from people closer to mainstream American Conservatives, but far closer to an amalgem of Ted Kennedy, Jesse Jackson and the AARP. It really is very, very strange to see a group at Free Republic cheering them on!
