Like his later work or not, he was a mighty brave force and did a lot to bring down the evil empire.. Or at least he kept it rearing back to life.

I think the only thing that kept him going this long was “Kieth Richards Syndrome”....he’s really been dead for years, but he was so well pickled it just took this long to find out...

RIP, Boris.
Maybe not a perfect guy, but a heck of a lot better than any other Russian leader I can think of.

Somehow we need to separate breaking news from important news.

Was he a cold warrior?
As I recall, he stood up on a tank an gave a speech that in effect ended the Soviet Union. Prior to that he was I believe Mayor of Moscow.

We were in the process of bringing Russia into the fold, when the Slick One messed it all up with the stupid folly into Kosovo.
