Then those Ruskies need to remove those reminders of Lenin just like they need to remove the one in Seattle!
Yes, they do, Lenin was a world class POS that had no mitigating characteristics at all, BUT we must let the Russians do it themselves by themselves. They don't have a lot of positive image leadership from 1917 to the early 1990's, to ease the perceptions of Russia.
And don't forget that Lenin was manufactured by Marx and Engels in Germany, France and England before he was shipped off to Russia.
