Russia isn't PC

With obama as POTUS, Putin does look respectable and appears as some one who will get things done that need done to the extent he can. But his motives are going to be found to be less then honorable once it all shakes out ... and on the current USA leadership trajectory, Putin will do exactly what Putin wants to do, in the way Putin wants to do it.

Some wanted the USA to "lead from behind" and forego the world leader role. I guess we'll see where that leads the USA and the world in the coming decade or two.
