re: #98 Ziggy_TARDIS

Why doesn’t he just move to Russia then?

He has been slobbering over a novel on Russian mystical Medievalism called Laurus. I think I’ll pass.

He also gave Putin a tongue bath back during the Pussy Riot incident:

The West is post-Christian. We know that, or we should know that. Buchanan’s column highlights this reality. What an embarrassment that post-Soviet Russia, for all its grievous flaws, is, in important ways more conscious of its Christian history and character than the United States, a nation that still likes to think of itself as culturally Christian, but which is becoming ever more anti-Christian. That’s why I give 1.5 cheers to Putin. He is anti-liberal in ways that are morally objectionable, but also in ways that are morally praiseworthy. The Christians of the Middle East have a greater friend in Vladimir Putin than they do in Barack Obama — or that they did in George W. Bush, for that matter.
