Very few English-language Russia blogs in the world have a higher Google page rank than La Russophobe.
LOL. Good one.
It’s sad that you find wholesale vote fraud in Russia, a country only a few years removed from the murderous nightmare of Soviet dictatorship, to be funny. The fact that you do reveals your utter contempt for the fate of the people of Russia, and marks you as one of their truest enemies.
What’s your problem, Kim?
I am outraged at the vote fraud in Moscow even more than you are, and thus I find this cartoon to be right on the point and funny.
LA RUSSOPHOBE RESPONDS:
You’ve been warned for the last time. LR’s publisher did not respond to your comment, has no idea who you are and couldn’t care less about your views. Engage in one more delusional conversation with her and you are banned.
If you are outraged, where is your criticism of the people of Russia and their government? We don’t see any. We just see the braying of a jackass.
And we don’t see ANYTHING funny. That you do betrays your empty head and heart.
But Phobodunce, you constantly harp on about how great life in Russia is, and heap praise upon Putins genocidal regime.
How can you expect anyone to believe you are not a rabid Putin supporter?
I bet he is complaining to LR’s publisher trying to shut her down. Well, since there are no Communist Party cells in the Palo Alto area to lodge complains with, the publisher is his last resort.
I guess he thinks the attitudes toward free speech in the United States are the same as in Russia. What a complete imbecile!

Excuse me but could you explain what you are talking about? What comment are you talking about? Who is your publisher? WordPress.com? I assure you the only thing I have done here is post my comments.
If somebody complained about you to your publisher, it was certainly somebody else. Since, unlike you, I value the freedom of expression, I would never complain to any authorities about anybody’s views or words.
But given that you hate the freedom of speech, I am sure you will ban me for laughing at that funny cartoon, just like you have banned so many before me.
> If you are outraged, where is your criticism of the people of Russia and their government?
Isn’t this criticism:
“I am outraged at the vote fraud in Moscow even more than you are”

I have just watched Luzhkov’s TVC PostScript weekly news program, in which they pretty much admitted that they falsified the elections in Moscow and argued that the only reason why the results shouldn’t be annulled and new elections held is because “it will cost too much money”.
I want to say: You, scumbags Putin and Luzhkov, may you rot in Hell.

Kim Zigfeld is the publisher and founder of this blog, you ape. And as our “about” section clearly states, MANY other people produce our content.
You have the intelligence and morals of a grape.
Then are you saying that you are not Kim, and that somebody complained to Kim about what you wrote?
I assure you that it was not I, because I never snitch, and don’t complain about other people’s words and articles.
However, I would be interested in finding out what that complaint was about and why you think it was I who complained.
As some Russians themselves say:
“There are no elections in Russia – only voting.”
