Unbelievable. An Ex-KGB guy and the Chicoms are more capitalistic than Obama.

I wonder if Vlad would be willing to run against the “messiah” in 2012. We could possibly revive capitalism.

[Frantzie]

I would trade Obama for Putin in a heartbeat.

[BAW]

Who is this guy, and what has he done with our Putin?

[goodnesswins]

Okay....it’s time for me to go to sleep now.....is this a dream?

[ZULU]

Can we swap?

We’ll give Russia Obama in return for Putin, and throw in some strategic oil reserves for good measure.

Obama is a catastrophe. If Bush’s immigration policies hadn’t turned America into a Bannana Republic, this clown would have been yanked out of office through an impeachment process weeks ago.

Over the last two or so decades we’ve seen the curious convergence of systems. China and Russia (former USSR) moving towards liberalized free market economies and a recognition of individual freedoms (more or less), and the United States becoming an over regulated iron grip police state, rife with corruption, social engineering, and usurpation of once free market sectors of the economy. And we’ve now passed the crossover point.

[Califreak]

Can we trade Zero for Putin?

[Tzimisce]

How bad is it?

Communists think we’re going too far....:(

[This_far]

It’s not the first time that Putin (or other nation’s leaders) have done this.

(I believe their concern to be sincere)

[supercat]

Kennedy and Kruschev were both right in their predictions, except for the timing.

[TheThinker]

World dictators are catching on that someone we know and love wants complete control of American wealth.

[wardaddy]

Putin however corrupt and oligarchic is more a traditionalist than messianic Obama will ever be

and he ain’t a dreamer

[rcrngroup]

I like Putin and despise the socialist-fascist-commie 0boooooooomba usurper in chief. As I said in another post, what an ass wipe 0booooooomba is!!! I would love to see black belt Putin dropkick 0boooooooomba’s skinny ass from one side of the room to the other, just to knock off his narcissistic pride & arrogance & his condescending uplifted nose-in-the-air.

[DoughtyOne]

It’s pretty bad when the leader of a nation like Russia has more sense than your own Pres__ent.

Honestly, Obama is so in over his head...

Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on Monday criticized U.S. President Barack Obama's plan to raise taxes on U.S. companies' foreign operations, saying it would amount to double taxation that will hurt the global economy.

That's newspeak for "it will interfere with the parasitic redistribution of US taxpayer and US consumer wealth to other nations".

When a US company offshores part of its operations:

• the US citizens lose jobs; the host country gains jobs,
• US tax revenue decreases; the host country tax revenue increases (on the offshored business, and on the job income transferred);
• US taxes increase in scope and rates to compensate for lower income tax revenue from individuals and businesses;
• US consumers suffer continuous real wage deflation, and gain only slightly lower consumer prices, tremendously lower quality of goods, and lower standard of living;
• US taxpayers fund insurance through OPIC to protect the offshoring company against losses in the foreign nation;
• Free Traitors take their cut and laugh at US taxpayers and consumers.

[meadsjn]

One more thing: Obama isn't doing any of this to relieve the pressure on US taxpayers and consumers.

He is simply cutting in on taking over the graft currently being taken by the Free Traitors ...

Just like with lying, cheating, thieving investment brokers, mortgage brokers, bankers, insurance companies, health insurance scammers, government funded non-profits, ... Next up will be the labor brokers and recruiters, and on and on. Anywhere there is a major cash flow, he's taking over the operation.

The corruption was already here -- he is simply playing the part of the NEW pimp, and drug dealer, and loan shark, and labor broker, and protection racket, and collector, and so forth, only on a larger scale.

[avacado]

You Freepers need to get a grip! Good grief! Capitalism sucks!
Bread lines are where it's at! You get to meet hot chicks in the
bread line. Jeeze... quit whining and embrace your new
communist masters!

"Unbelievable. An Ex-KGB guy and the Chicoms are more capitalistic than Obama."

Foreign commies love our unilateral capitalism, as long as our liberal US corporate bosses are funding the buildups of their nuclear arsenals against the USA (not to mention the anti-American, anti-family garbage that our business leaders sponsor through the media and universities). Far be it from us to practice the "protectionism" that our foreign enemies are practicing in their own countries.

But drive on with the big spending, bipartisan free traitors and Democrats! We'll be better off after exhaustion of the debt schemes and the big defaults to follow. We'll learn to do some real work again while getting reacquainted with the consequences of propping up slavery-supporting social programs.
