#1 %#@! Pravda.......the same commie lies & Soviet-KGB style non-stop propaganda. Nothing has changed, it just got worse under the 'new' Russia.

#2 Mark,
You have just been fooled by Capitalist propaganda. It has been scientifically proven that the Soviet Union never existed, therefore Pravda never existed in the Soviet Union or the new Russia.

#3 "A-ha! You are not Saddam Hussein--I suggest that you are none other than Ron Higgins, professional Cardinal Richelieu impersonator, impersonating Saddam Hussein!"

"Curse you, infidel, you have found me out!"

#4 I also hear that Putin's a cyborg.

#5 But is he anatomically correct?

#6 Okay, you got us. The real Saddam and sons were killed by a bomb during the war? Or they're in North Korea with Kimmie, gorging on hamburgers? What are the implications of this? Cancel my Pravda subscription!

#7 "This isn't Saddam Hussein, it's..."
"Old Man Hainey?"
"And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddlesome kids!"

#10 I'm surprised that it took anybody over six months to come up with this LLL / Michael Moore conspiracy angle. They're slipping.

#11 Raj, maybe they were waiting to see if MM could use it first. Professional courtesy among brethren, perhaps.

#12 Pravda appeals to that element of the Russian readership whose childhood diet consisted mostly of captured German rye-bread and radioactive cabbage.

#13 Everyone know the real Saddam is now Lynde England's love slave. "And now, big guy, we get to page 27 of the Victoria's Secret catalogue."

#14 I wonder if Lumpy Riefenstahl will give proper attribution when he uses this in his next film?
After all, he probably has a lot more respect for Pravda than he does for Ray Bradbury.

Personally, I think Timothy Bancroft-Hinchey is an impostor. The man who writes for Pravda shows a full set of teeth, yet he has a British upper class name. How likely is that?

#15 Gang, you can e-mail the author of this piece, the alleged Timothy Bancroft-Hinchey, from the link on his Pravda bio-page.
It's obvious from the photo that Tim shares many of Michael Moore's interests (probably Mars Bars) as well as his ethics and politics.

#17 This is sensational. Bancroft-Hinchey is an actual commie AND a devoted Lumpy fan!
Timothy Bancroft-Hinchey's letter to Michael Moore.

What in the world is a Mars Bar - is this some kind of slang for some unmentionable sexual practice?

#19 A Mars Bar is a calorie-laden chocolate confection, enormously popular in the UK.
They are made in Waco, Texas, which undoubtedly gives them a certain cachet with commie conspiraloons like Tim.

#20 Sorry gang, Tim's letter is not to Michael Moore but to a similarly disgruntled lefty who shares his first name.
I tacked on "Moore" out of sheer habit.
I mean, I was thinking "commie" "fat-guy" and "fifth columnist" the whole time, and my fingers made the connection on their own.

#21 Is Michael Moore the new editor of Pravda?
