"It is time to get rid of this horrible mummy." By Ann Althouse Somehow it's still hard to face up to the need to bury Lenin's body: "It is time to get rid of this horrible mummy," said Valeriya Novodvorskaya, head of the Democratic Union, a small reform party. "One cannot talk about any kind of democracy or civilization in Russia when Lenin is still in the country's main square." She added: "I would not care even if he were thrown on a garbage heap."... Where Mr. Putin stands is now the central remaining question of Lenin's future address. Mr. Putin said in 2001 that he did not want to upset the civic order by moving the founder's remains. "Many people in this country associate their lives with the name of Lenin," he said. "To take Lenin out and bury him would say to them that they have worshiped false values, that their lives were lived in vain."
