True enough.

But is Putin-style freedom all it's cracked up to be?

I realize Russia has a flat tax but I'm not entirely convinced we would be that much happier if Putin was our Preezy and his cronies were our masters.

Here's a question to ponder:

Which one would be more likely to leave peaceably if the voters decided it was time for him to go.

I don't know the answer.

Our choice isn't between Putin and Obama.

Our choices are:

Obama (or his leftist successor) and eventual destruction of the free republic on one hand

Or

A return to a constitutional government with a true American patriot as president on the other hand
