Yessiree, Soviet Russian premier Vladmir Putin is at it again, saying that the collapse of the Soviet Union was "the worst geopolitical disaster of the 20th century". Funny, I'd say that the collapse of the German Republic in 1934 was probably worse... as far as I know, the collapse of the Soviet Union has NOT led to millions dying... but what the hey, I'm not a megalamaniac Joe Stalin wanna-be disappointed about only ruling 1/6th of the world rather than 1/4th of the world.
But what the hey, some elderly moron in Iraq with no army and no weapons worthy of the name was a bigger threat to the United States than a man who appears to be restoring many symbols of Communism to Russia... it's no wonder that Dubya the Dumber looks into Putin's eyes and likes what he sees there. Dubya the Dumber wants to BE Putin... but labors under the handicap of working in a semi-democratic system (oh sob! I can hear Dubya whining at night that things would be better in a dictatorship, as long as he was the dictator!). I'm sure that every time Bush thinks about his plan to loot Social Security for the benefit of his Wall Street cronies and the buzz-saw that has resulted, he wishes he was Pooty-poot...
