| #3 As I told my wife last night, what is frightening about this is not what is happening in Russia, which is apparently serious and significant, but that it is happening while the Puppet Show is ostensibly in charge. Instead of steady hands and prudent leaders, we have a clown-show, behind which are people who will see this as an opportunity to exploit for financial and political gain. What they might do to accelerate this threat to Putin might well spark a very big ugly! |
