Russians are feeling nostalgic, I see.

I see the KGB is still up to the task. Vladimir Vladimirovich wouldn't have it any other way.

What a strong leader he is, eh? Admired by the right wing fringe.

Roll Putin Roll.

Dude, get real. The motley crew relies on Putin to restore freedom and democracy to Murkha!

We all know who's really behind all this...

Don't worry, Putin is hot on the trail of the "real killers". He's already suggesting such viable options as maybe Chechnyian terrorists, and had nothing to do with the fact that he was about to publish a report in opposition to the illegal Russian involvement in Ukraine. Seriously, how are there Americans who stand by this Russian Mafiosa leader?

I guess Russia needs concealed carry. Yeah, that's the ticket. Just the thought should make the average Russian feel safer and more importantly free.

To some people the most important quality in a leader is the perception of strength. Ethics and all that silly stuff comes a distant second.

Given that Putin isn't a voting choice for you, one wonders about why anyone would respect a dictator who murders his political opponents.

Perhaps you need to stop living in fantasy land. Maybe engaging with your own political system would be a way forward.

If supporting a dictator isn't an example of crypto fascism the statement above certainly is.

Indeed,you can't make this stuff up. The man blatantly murders his political opponents inside and outside of Russia.

You, a citizen of a first world country with the benefit of a first world education apparently find him an inspirational figure.

SMH indeed.
