Anyone watch Leno last night? He had a great zinger !!!
He was talking about the conservatives saying that Obama's pressure on Syria had NO EFFECT on Assad's decision to give up chemical weapons. Furthermore, BO played no part in Osama Bin Laden being at the bottom of the ocean, OBL just likes scuba-diving !!!

Putin has been hand in glove with the Russian Orthodox church for quite some time. The whole, or a great part of the Puss y Riot imbroglio (what a great word!) took place because the group did a shtik in a church and then made a video about it.

And let's be more fair, Russia had historically been a hyper religious nation, until the advent of Communism that suppressed/stifled all religion. Therefore they didn't "find religion"... but rather it merely "came out of hiding". Even centuries old icons & alter accoutrements were literally dug-up from hiding in barnyards etc or taken back from the State's museums and restored to the Russian Orthodox Church.
Thank You for posting the link although I kept hearing reactions to it, this is the 1st opportunity I've had to finally read the article in it's entirety for myself.
