Putin respects and relates more with men like Bush and Cheney and men like Todd Palin. And would want to go on a hunting expedition with Sarah Palin, knowing she was more than able to outshine him. Obama is closer to a vegetarian...NOT a hunter.
However, Michelle brought glamor to Russia.
But Mom, the Emperor is naked!
Obama is closer to Hanuman.
To me, Ogabe’s lower than a gob of spit on the sidewalk, but because of his radicalism, anti-Americanism and his transparent lack of ability, not his race. To the Russians, Ogabe’s just a member of an inferior race. He could be Jesus, the Buddha, Muhammad and Vishnu rolled into one, and the Russians would see him as a jacked-up n****r.
So in Russia our emperor has no clothes?
There’s a reason Jews have spent the last couple of hundred years trying to get out of Russia - pervasive Russian racism.
Aw man! You beat me to it...
...as do most Europeans.
Kind of a surreal experience i.e. you learn that story when you’re a kid never for one minute thinking that such a thing could ever happen in real life. And then one day ...
Bambi and Vlady play chess on T.V.-
the senate is giving a party on the sea-
the nuclear war will forever be banned-
it’s only their kings which they have to defend.
Yep.
If you said east europeans i would have agreed
Barack Obama, David Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel are all very effeminate....
&&&
Can’t be said about Michelle.
I went to Russia in 1995, visiting a friend who was working there. She said Russians were very racist. They made fun of blacks from Africa who came to Russia for military training and such. That could explain part of their cool reception toward a Kenyan.
Also, as to Michelle bringing glamour to Russia, that would be like bringing coals to Newcastle, to use a very dated phrase. Russian women love looking beautiful, with nice hair, nails, slim figures, pretty dresses. Take the subway on a Friday evening, as the couples are heading out for their dates, and you will see more young, classy, lovely ladies than have been seen here in the U.S. in decades. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the young men being in the same league as their female companions.
The men are old-school macho chauvinists, largely. My friend saw many business meals where they end up drinking a lot, and you’d better keep up, or you are wimpy and unsociable. I can’t see Obama doing that. On the other hand, he does smoke, and so do they. That could help him a little.
Bingo. Russians like their leaders to be strong, masculine, decisive and authoritative. Obama displays none of these qualities.
Plus, hasn't he pretty much holed up in his hotel room because he's been "tired" for much of the trip? That's a way to win respect from the Russkies!
Sigh... At first I feared Obama. Now I'm just embarrassed by him. He's so in over his head.
The important question is: Are the kids having fun?! /sarc
As always, one standard exists for the international left outside Russia and quite another standard exists within Russia.
Bwahahahahaha! And Zero can't STAND it!
It looks weird to them. They just think that America has gone crazy.
Yep.
