Do you have anything against commies?

I voted for Communists at last elections, not for the party of thieves that Putin supports.

Not mentioning obvious omitions - another mis-translations.

Time: "PUTIN: Fools are lucky. We work day and night!"

It was "Luck is for fools, but we work day and night!" He's playing words, meaning that we are not lucky fools, we are working on our own luck.

Only a fool would read the Time English translation as other than your posting one.

Do I have something against commies?

Depends on who you are talking about...the vast majority of them, no.

Do I have something against communism?

Again it depends on which form you are talking about and I don't pretend for one second to know about all of them.  For the most part however yes, their philosophy has a lot of major flaws in it.  All political philosophies have their flaws, but communism allows for some of the greatest tragedies and problems to occur.

Do I have a problem with Boroda?

No. :D

A interesting documentary I saw about Russia. Boroda it seems things are nice a cozy where you live in Moscow, but not so nice elsewhere in the country.

I have a very hard time believing Putin (aka Stalin Jr) really has a 70% approval rating if this stuff is true.

I suspect for Putin, a 70% approval rating simply means that there is 30% of the country that still needs to be imprisioned or assasinated.
