Putin Has Sack to Hang Some Pussy by Balls

Two lady-killers and heads of state met last summer and it was a real laugh riot, apparently. Dracula Putin told Mnsr. Sarkozy that he wanted to hang the President of Georgia, Joe (sp?) Saakashvili, by his balls, the Times Online is reporting. The entire blogsphere exploded in gleeful twitters when this news broke, in part, we think, because it's so surprising. Who would've thought that a man whose friends kill journalists as a birthday present would be capable of such foul language? Maybe you think I'm exaggerating about what the article says. I am not.

“I am going to hang Saakashvili by the balls,” Mr Putin declared.

More reminiscent of Hemmingway than Dostoyevsky in some ways. Short, masculine sentences. The article continues:

Mr Sarkozy thought he had misheard. “Hang him?” — he asked. “Why not?” Mr Putin replied. “The Americans hanged Saddam Hussein.”

Mr Sarkozy, using the familiar tu, tried to reason with him: “Yes but do you want to end up like [President] Bush?” Mr Putin was briefly lost for words, then said: “Ah — you have scored a point there.”

Greenwald follows that quote to it's logical conclusion here.

How long until the Right begins pressuring Barack Obama to strike back with some strong rhetoric of his own to show we mean business? "Mr. Obama, if you don't at least THREATEN to pike someone in the ding-dong we'll be a laughing-stock!"
