Putin, given all of his obvious faults, is still miles ahead of our pathetic Obamadork.
Ya have to admit, Putin is on Russia's side. Xi Jinping is on China's side too. Wouldn't it be great if we had a president that was on our side?
Being the Cold War leftover, I consider Putin to be the leader of the “opposition”. An unreconstructed Chekist. Even so, I have far more respect for Putin than I do for Barry Dunham.
Beslan must have been a major wake up for Putin. One Beslan is one too many.
