And in this [old video](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VJwn-At244) that I just had the pleasure of watching, he swiftly counters an idiotic Bushism about democracy. _That_, Mr. Bush, is a man. Horseback? Putin can ride in a baby stroller wearing drag and still be more manly. Putin can crush a Hummer with his air of authority. Putin can outspeak Obama with a well-placed ellipsis. Putin, my friends, is who James Bond wants to be when he grows up. ---

You know, I come from a country where the Prime Minister and Minister of Defense - a couple of men I generally dislike - once stormed a hijacked aircraft together. A couple of shirtless photo ops donā€™t really make that much of an impression. ---
