Putin

What did you vote? :wink:

I'm not going to arbitrarily judge the presidents of other countries like the citizens of said other countries arbitrarily judge President Bush.

Why not? it's politics! Anyhoo, why can one not make informed judgement, as long as you know what you are talking about?

I think Bush is a global scale figure, so we can judge or appreciate his foreign policy deeds, if we like. Rise has come down here again to teach the CIS countries how they should live. :wink:

I recommend you to read this article to understand Mr. Putin and why most of Russians support him. I consider this article to be the best one about him I've ever read. I hope it's not too long and boring to you.

That's why I ignored these elections.
