Putin. He kicks ass.

Sir-Ex · 09-13-2011, 03:36 PM

If he were running for election in Canada, I'D vote for him in a second. Just because of this :

Vladimir Putin, Action Man - Alan Taylor - In Focus - The Atlantic

For serious. In Canada and the USA, it's hard not to feel contempt for pretty much any political candidate out there. But this motherfucker right here? Awesome.

If he's so bad ass, why is the only one on a tricycle?

Sir-Ex · 09-13-2011, 03:44 PM

Cuz he's responsible for the bodies obviously.

Sir-Ex · 09-13-2011, 06:10 PM

this thread sucks but it could have been good, christ

Kompressor · 09-13-2011, 06:13 PM

Yes, Putin clearly has his nation's best interest at heart.

i was expecting(hopingfor) topless photos

Mercury · 09-13-2011, 06:22 PM

he's just Putin us on

Sir-Ex · 09-13-2011, 06:26 PM

Mainly I'm just trying to point out how different their political world is.

I can not imagine Stephen Harper driving an F1 racer one day, shaking hands with the Hell's Angels another day, and riding topless on a horse the next.

Kompressor · 09-13-2011, 06:37 PM

Their political world is what we don't want to be.

We have celebrities for that shit.

tedkennedy · 09-13-2011, 06:56 PM

people have cameras in russia?

Kompressor · 09-13-2011, 06:57 PM

If you're fuckable, as Sir-Ex's link shows.

Yana Lapikova, a new personal photographer of Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, taking pictures during an official event in Moscow, on June 16, 2011. The Russian government sought on June 17 to douse a frenzy of Internet comment after it hired Lapikova, an attractive former model and "Miss Moscow" finalist, as personal photographer to Putin.

Merit through the personal character of your leader, or merit in the cynical bouts of a never-ending pissing contest?

What a decision.

Kompressor · 09-13-2011, 07:08 PM

Cool, I'd rather have someone who focuses on other people than himself, who is already successful.

Besides killing journalists and former iron curtain leaders.

Sir-Ex · 09-13-2011, 07:11 PM

Well....if I have to be frank, I'll agree with you, but I gotta give kudos to this guys showmanship.

Roach · 09-13-2011, 08:35 PM

well he was head of the KGB not all that long ago.

so I'm guessing he's still fairly well connected.

Terry · 09-13-2011, 08:51 PM

Putin's cool as long as you're not a journalist and/or live in Chechnya

Man in Black · 09-13-2011, 10:40 PM

Putin is a bad mother fucker, no doubt about it. In more ways than one.
