Do you need a point-by-point comparison? Putin fits every definition of a fascist dictator. Just Wikipedia:

Fascist movements shared certain common features, including the veneration of the state, a devotion to a strong leader, and an emphasis on ultranationalism and militarism. Fascism views political violence, war, and imperialism as a means to achieve national rejuvenation[5][8][9][10] and asserts that stronger nations have the right to expand their territory by displacing weaker nations.[11]

Why don’t you just suck on something besides Putin’s little pu?

No, I want a strong and assertive USA to kick Putin’s little nazi ass. Along with his domestic admirers.

His approval will never equal H.W. Bush’s approval, before we voted him out of office.

Obviously, America is not the only country with low information voters.

Apparently a number of Freepers would vote for Putin, too.

Russia lost over 20 million people fighting Nazis.

If our illegal alien from Kenya were running today against Putin (just as legal as obama) I wonder how that would come out?

"Can you name one that Obama has?"

Yes, the single handed destruction of the world's foremost superpower to banana-republic status in five years.

I’m looking for someone like Putin. Who is feared.

Read your Machiavelli.

And if you STILL think all of the destruction that our AntiChrist in Chief has wrought is a matter of ineptitude, your voter registration card needs to be recalled.

You should understand that polling and voting under United Russia is a big joke.

No one believes it’s even mildly honest. The outcome is pre-determined.

That said, he’s undoubtedly popular for doing this. Have heard many Russians tell me “we’re gonna get the land back”.

The question is...going back how far?

Do they think the border ends in Budapest or Berlin?

Which would you rather have, thug Putin kicking sand in our face, or our president Owormtongue stabbing us in the back? Fortunately you don’t have to choose as you get to have both for only a modest fee (tax).

Heck, a good % of Americans would vote for Putin—if he was runnin’ in the US. Do we even have anyone like him out there? So old general or something? Who?

If Russia’s voting laws are as lacking as our own I might even vote for him.

That’s BS. If Putin is so popular in Russia then he wouldn’t have any need to screw with the vote. Face it: Russian are serfs who voted in their new master and want him to remake their evil empire. Russians are an inferior people and have always will be an inferior people who will never understand the true nature of freedom and personal responsibility.

So what? Stalin and Hitler were allies waiting to stab each other in the back, but Hitler struck first. Russia didn’t fight Hitler out of the goodness of their commie hearts.
