A President with an 84% approval rating. If an election in Russia was held today, President Putin would win re-election in a landslide.

Obummer has only a 43% approval rating here.

What was that Osama Bin said about people naturally gravitating to The Strong Horse? There is some truth in that, even though strength is not always in indicator of wisdom, or even fairness.

Of course a leader who "repatriates" land that was "stolen" from his country is going to be wildly popular.

What were the Chancellor's poll numbers like when he retook Alsace?

Pretty high, I'd bet.

A clear reflection in polls of one politician that supports the homosexual agenda and one who advocates Pro Family Values.

60% of Russians would vote for Putin if they were truly allowed to vote.

Ummm, from the polls I’ve seen, O’Crapper is down at 39%

Obama is a strong horse. That’s why every one lines up to show him respect.

Just kidding!

Adolf Hitler was extremely popular too - why don’t you praise him as your “conservative” hero?

That’s because Russia is full of serfs, and Americans have had their fill of the clown in the White House.

Can’t help wondering if Putin wouldn’t pull more votes in the US than Obama...

[goldstategop]

Our adversary has a record of real accomplishments.

Can you name one that Obama has?

[dfwgator]

Is that 60% in Russia, or the US?

[goldstategop]

In Russia.

And compared to Crimea - Obamacare is so overrated.

Apparently, Godwin’s Law is still in force.

[Bubba Ho-Tep]

60% of Russians would vote for Putin if they were truly allowed to vote.

Since he won two years ago with 63% of the vote, his popularity is actually down.

[Samogon]

I prefer Obama’s ineptitude to Putin’s out-of-this-world pure evil. If you consider driving the world towards nuclear Armageddon a worthy accomplishment - you probably should join your comrades in Russia.

I guess you want Jimmy Carter. The 70s are calling again for your foreign policy.

[tips up]

People gravitate to a strong leader who stands up for his country. That’s what Putin is doing.

Why don’t you get back to licking Obama’s boots?

[elhombrelibre]

I remember when this was a pro-western, pro-American, pro-conservative website. Now, the “it’s Obama’s fault” conservatives want to be quislings. Sad. But some are just superficial.
