Russian President Vladimir Putin has something to smile about. Everyone in Russia loves him, according to a recent Gallup poll.

Putin’s popularity in Russia is at its highest level in years, with 83 percent of Russians saying they approve of the job he’s doing. That ties his previous high rating that came in 2008 — and currently is nearly twice the approval rating of President Barack Obama in the U.S. (44 percent).

Liberals see stuff like this and think conservatives are pro-Putin or something. What we like is Putin is a pro-Russian President of Russia ... we wish we had a pro-American President.
