    It wouldn’t surprise me if the kremlin doesn’t even know how many they’ve actually lost, considering how many “yes” men they have and the repercussions of telling putin what he doesn’t like to hear.

    All I know is I’d hate to be the guy to put that report on his desk.

    Like most conservatives, putin loves wars that don’t endanger him in any way. He loves the bloodshed and the misery of the innocent.

    Conservatism is a plague of death. Pure death.

      I don’t even know his politics but I’m reluctant to call Putin a conservative (and that means something else outside of the US anyway). Putin is a murderous, crusading mobster who happens to run a country.

          But assuming the Russian revolution originated from the workers, how could anyone ever hope to avoid either oligarchy or dictatorship? Is there some mistake they made that you believe we could avoid, or do you we can never escape having a government like this?

        Anti-LGBT imperialist who promotes a strong man image of himself and operates a thuggish government. With all of the propaganda and lack of freedom of speech and media in Russia, sounds like he’s a fascist more than your garden variety conservative.

    Putin still has more toys in the toy box, so he’s not worried how many get broken
