Sadly Russia is ran like a cult. A 140 million people Jonestown with similar brainwashing methods, but supported by modern technology.
Yes, and there are cult members here, too, even on FReeRepublic who value Russian revanchists’ policies, Russian chauvinism, and Putinism more than law. They say it’s all because they oppose Obama, but that’s just too stupid to be true. You cannot favor freedom and support a foreign despot because you’re unhappy with the narcissistic statist in the White House who leaves office in less than two years. Real Americans never suck up to foreign dictators and have treasonous sympathies. Only really dumbed down conservatives could be tricked by a president for life using a few shallow sophistries that have a veneer of conservatism.
No Putin doesn’t!!! THAT is propaganda!!! His numbers are like obama’s economic & employment numbers FALSE!

Why do ask? 1 reason is because the new democratic Russia has copied the way we were and obliged us for the last 25 years.
With the promotion of religion, family, straight sex, flat tax ect, they were going in a better direction than us.
Ask yourself a hard question. Who would make a better world president, Obama or Putin ?
Maybe, this will help understanding:

I don't want a world president. I much prefer the republic our Founding Fathers gave us.
If it's not 80%, what is it or should it be?
The 'MSM' is very powerful. They can reduce Nixon's 60% landslide to ~40%, 1st Bush after defeating Sadam, from 90% to ~40%.
What has Putin at 80% is not their MSM but the fact that he is country 1st. The Ukrans and Russians on both sides of the border probably know more of what's going on than we do or what we are being told.
“Just like Saddam Hussein always got 99% of the vote in elections.
Yet, once he was down, the people showed what they REALLY thought of him”
LOL. I guess said people would give all they have to bring Saddam back today.
Stop reading these crappy Russian financed “news outlets”. In 1999-2008 their economy was growing due to unusually high prices of natural resources, once that's over they are collapsing. They hardly export anything else. There's been totally no progress in building up any real economy and their “religion” is ROC - KGB “church”, basically government's department of religion.
Question is, does it preach family and love your neighbor or harems and kill your infidel neighbors. Or as in the EU, where they preach nothing of value. Or as in the US, we are preached sodomy.
Some times the truth is hard to accept when things have changed so fast here in the last 30 years.
LOL, Russian turds complaining about propaganda!
I love it
“Some times the truth is hard to accept when things have changed so fast here in the last 30 years.”
Your vision of Russia simply has nothing to do with reality.
