Anyway, see what you can dig up about him being the anti-Christ.
I believe you are studying in the US at present. Try lifting the shirt of a random child unconnected with you and frenching their belly-button over there.

I know that this sort of touching is less controversial in Russia, but Putin is supposed to be an international statesman. His explanation of being in thrall to an irrational emotional response is quite telling.

However, it is his human rights record and control of the levers of power in Russia that is the issue. You take a position not unfamiliar to me, whereby many Russians are completely unwilling to critically examine the actions of their president, preferring to cling to the old excuses of external intereference - a card recently played again by Putin.

It's very, very sad, because your country could be one of the greatest in the world for both culture, economy and eventually democracy. At present, corruption and the slide to totalitarism is throttling you all back to the Stone Age of the Soviet era.

There's not much point in arguing further with you, especially since you appear to believe, like President Putin, that any contrary viewpoint is retarded.
