Those rippling pecs really get you hot for Vladi, don't they?
I've decided to post this, even though it's dated, and slams George W, (Obama with his "re-set button" certainly misjudged Putin as much as 43) because it's well made and pretty funny...(one could just as easily substitute Barack for George...)

Dubya's sobriquet for Putin -- Pootie-Poot? Such a pre-school nickname for a world leader. WTF? And Vlad's mother wears combat boots, no doubt. No wonder there's a chill in U.S.- Russian relations.
“In a world whose absurdity appears to be so impenetrable, we simply must reach a greater degree of understanding among us, a greater sincerity.”
“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

I have no interest in his body I will leave that for you; I am concerned about what is happening in his brain, hopefully a stroke. That is a terrible thing for a Christian to say in a time of peace, but it is true.
Soon, I’ll post my farewell message. The end is starting to get close. There are many misconceptions about me, and before I go, to live with my ancestors on the steppes, I want to set the record straight.

Contrary to popular belief the "Thought Police" are yet to exist so you're probably still a christian in good standing. However, are we truly in "a time of peace?" In today's world I'm afraid that's an ambiguous term. Personally, I don't believe there has been peace on earth since life crawled out of the primordial ooze.
Regardless, if it were possible I would condemn anyone who wantonly and willfully causes death, destruction, and pain upon their fellow human beings to an eternity in Hell. Unfortunately, Hell does not exist so I'm left hoping those who incur the wrath of the world suffer wretched mental anguish while existing on this earth. Instant karma, if you will.

Many anthropologist believe that war is a relative recent human experience. This line of reasoning hold that war, recurring aggressive actively directed at the defeat or destruction of an enemy, came about during the Neolithic when man had something to fight over. The idea makes sense: During the Paleolithic human populations were so small that wandering family groups seldom came in contact with other people and when they did there was nothing to fight over. It was when people began raising crops and keeping animals that they had something someone else might want enough to fight.
