What does that have to do with the question I answered?
Well, for one thing, you could have added with the "he loves his country" at least one thing negative about the guy. Otherwise, it makes it sound like you really have no problem with him ("well, at least he loves his country"). And when, as you can see on most of these Russia-Putin threads, these more than a few misguided FReepers who continually come to his defense, those of us that know better should help enlighten those that don't know very much about him, not help contribute to their ignorance by leaving out the bad stuff.
