Does the US need a bit of Putin Power?

Wobbly I-want-people-to-like-me George W. Bush should perhaps gird his loins a bit, though not to the extent that the midget Rasputin/Vlad-the-Empoisoner
Putin is flashing his mini-junk in public.

St. Petersburg-native Putin hails from a city that has been called the San Francisco of the Arctic, but he should consider putting a few flowers in his hair rather than beating the daylights out of protesters for allegedly violating the rules of a protest demonstration.

San Francisco Values or USSR values. Lil' Vlad has made his choice, it seems.
