Dear Vladimir - An American's Response to President Putin's Op-Ed (theeverlastinggopstoppers.com)

The whole reply doesn't even address anything Putin said... just how his country has been in the past. Not helpful if we are to stay on topic.


What an incredibly ignorant response. America's issues go a wee deeper than just the Iraqi fun and instigating the global economic crises of the past decade. Like the invasion of Iran in the 1950s, as but one of endless examples going back to the founding. And Putin never made the direct claim that he was doing it better than America, merely expressing how the states need to get off the high horse. Of course Russia has issues. But they're not insisting at gunpoint that the world get down on its knees and open wide for American business interests. The gobstoppers response is no better than trailer trash rubbish.
