Harry Truman Played the Piano, Bill Clinton Played the Saxaphone

So why shouldn't Vladamir Putin sing at a celebrity fund-raiser for Russian cancer centers?


Consider, oh my children, that President Obama sent Joe Biden to the Hill to talk to the Republicans about taxes, and sent Bill Clinton to talk to the press about the economy, and it provoked all sorts of tittering about who's really in charge. Putin, on the other hand, is now merely Prime Minister of Russia -- while some other guy is president -- because he was constitutionally disabled from succeeding himself as president. Yet no one doubts who's in charge. Even when he sings badly.
