He is in power this long because Soros and his gang even after they were
kicked out still tried very hard to undermine and control the system.

I'd trust George Soros over Putin any day on anything.

+1. Next thing you know the right will be screeching that it's all Obamas's fault.

To me, that's just trading one rich, egotistical, domineering asshole for another.

A huge laugh!

I listen to one of the talking heads last night saying Putin in trouble at home with the ultra right. Seems he not taking strong enough action, want to invade and take the portions of Ukraine they want.

We need to have a steady hand on the tiller, one who needs no reminder of the occurrences of only hundred years ago. On how fast events can spin out of control!

Putin loves to throw his weight around but this time 300 innocents were killed so we need some strong response from the Europeans.


I wonder why we cannot remove them as one of the permanent Security Council members...that would be a wake up call. Most likely that is impossible to do.

No, that would be the Koch gold dust twins here vs Putin there.

Doesn't it bother you that Putin has been in power for over a decade now and appears to be fixing elections? Not to mention his "stint" as Prime Minister under Mededyev. I guess he did not want to appear too obvious like the old Kremlin leaders like Stalin and Breshnev. And who ever replaces him someday will do the same thing, and could be worse than Putin.

That man (I use the word loosely) is evil personified, no way is there going to be someone worse.
