"I'm back, Ladies."
Pootie got himself re-elected (like we didn't see that coming), so it's time to get your swoon on!
"When I ride little horse, I look much bigger, yes?"
Does anyone else find Vladimir Putin's recent 'sexy campaign' hilarious? I realize he is the leader of a huge foreign nation, but this marketing ploy makes him come across as a nutso egomaniac. I hope he never stops, though. These photos make me laugh like nobody's business.
"Chuck Norris? Bah. He is nothing. I wrestle tigers with my bare hands."
In the past year or so, he's been cramming this Putin virility campaign down the Russian media's throat. We've seen him shirtless and riding his horses what seems like every other week.
"The big animals, they go crazy for my manly sweat." Maybe I could send him a shirt.
"I make big smack with hammer. I am hot and steaming and strong like this metal."
He's also been doing photo ops riding a submarine to the bottom of Lake Baikal and attaching a tracking device to a whale. Add to his manly list of deeds popping wheelies with a local biker gang. Don't forget he can co-pilot a fighter jet and shoot a tiger, ladies.
"I drop you to floor like little girl."
Ah....it's going to be a good few years of photos, don't you think?


Laura, you are hilarious!!!!!!!!!
Oh my!!! But I ask, is there really any better way to ride a horse, than shirtless???? hahahehehee, eeeugh!!

Putin - he too scary manly man for me.
What a great apost for a Monday morn!!! hahahaaaaa!
ps: I dated a man for 4 years who spoke exactly like your phrases for Putin (but he lost me to Lovee). It was awesome. Only he was Greek. "Moromou, you cut my hairs? yes? Okay, I bakes for you some dinners."
I loved it ;)

Thats hilarious, V!
I love the Greek Speak.
The videos of Medvedeve dancing were so ridiculous and wooden.

I said, Dancing.
She said, Thassnot dancing.

More people should have them.
Do you notice regional accents? Like within a few counties of your home region?
I have trouble deciphering accents that are close to home, but can pick them out from people in other states.

Laura....You could write for Saturday Night Live!
Pootie kind of has man boobs like Steven Tyler (and a little bit of a chicken chest like Anthony Weiner).....What's up with his thumb ring & the wife beater shirt?!
