Re: Daily Kos (none / 0)

Putin is at least reasonably competent. He does realpolitik. And he is aware of the consequences of his actions.

None of these things make me want to respect him.

I suppose it comes down to which hat you're wearing - pro-peace and freedom leftist, or history book reading realist.

Re: Daily Kos (4.00 / 2)

A little of both. Mostly I think the world would be a safer place with more Putins and rather fewer Bushes around. Of course the world would be an even safer place with neither kind of leadership in command of great powers (and without great powers to begin with...) - no argument there - but that doesn't really seem to be on offer, unfortunately...
