I understand the MSM has an agenda, I mistrust them as much as anyone, but that means relying on a Sixty Minutes interview to inform us of who Putin is and what he is like might not be the best thing to do.
I do know he was head of the KGB, and so far he's NOT said he thinks they were bad, and he's said that the fall of the Soviet Union itself was one of the worst events in recorded history.
I'm too ignorant on the subject to get into an argument, that wasn't my intent, I was just curious as to why you seemed to like him.
Okay, well Putin seemed in control of the interview. He was charming and polite. 0bama on the other hand would be overbearing, narcissistic, hemming and hawing and not having a coherent idea. Putin came across as a nice guy is all.
