I can understand Russia’s sentiment.
But let’s face it, Putin could kick any of our President’s asses in a toe-to-toe.
I think he’s okay. Obviously, way better than HOBOama (same w/Medvedev).
The best part about Russia is their new flag, has all the red-white and blue thing going.
The new Russia is all hormone crazy, but “rockin in the free world.”
