Seriously, sometimes I wonder why we bother with Russia. And don't get me wrong- I'm very fascinated by the country, it's history, it's culture, etc. But they're regressing. And what better way to do it than by electing Mr. Bear himself, Vladimir Putin? I just don't know how much that country wants democracy the way the Western world does...it's not for everyone. But obviously it's not working there. People are unhappy, starving and of course there's Chechnya.
