Vladimir Putin: "Presidents come & go, but politics stays the same…Do you know why? Powerful bureaucracy. When a person is elected, they may have some ideas. Then people with briefcases arrive, well dressed, wearing dark suits and explain how things are REALLY done" pic.twitter.com/8GxHItj05M

To make it to the top of the heap in most intelligence and security services, as well as other arenas of national government, means having a vast array of skills, languages, analytical capability, tactical and strategic vision plus political savvy and guts. Mr Putin has all of these things in spades and he loves Russia.
In ‘Murica, not so much if at all. See the likes of Brennan, Bolton, Clapper and Rice for details.
Corruption and arrogance turn the trick every time.
I’m trying to figure out what upside down world this is, where Russia is more even-keeled and better led than any Western country.
Seeing that reminds me … Putin is always shown speaking Russian. Even w/ english press. He is an excellent english speaker, but always speaks Russian as a demonstration of pride to the Russian people.
Putin knows all about those in dark suits.
It’s easy to talk shit when you are President for life and retarded parrots on blogs like TPB keep saying Communism collapsed 29 years ago.
He is exceptionally smart and damn he doesn’t seem to age.
He just said what we’ve been saying for years. TBP readers are pretty smart dudes, and dudettes too.
