ollowing up on my last post, I just ran across this photo from The Associated Press. AP’s caption reads as follows:

Ossetian soldiers on top of a tank enter Tskhinvali, the capital of Georgian breakaway enclave of South Ossetia on Monday, Aug. 11, 2008, next to a giant portrait of Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and inscription in Cyrillic: Putin is our President. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev ordered a halt to military action in Georgia on Tuesday. (AP Photo/Mikhail Metzel)

Note again: The sign is located inside Georgia. It says "Putin is our President."

You know, Vladimir Putin — the guy who, in theory, isn’t even the president of Russia any more.

By the way, the picture below is of him presiding over the crushing of Georgia from Moscow.
