Oh that plutonium was for his personal use. Maybe use against his wife after their divorce. Putin would never use it anyplace else. After all, Russians already have a "Russian Roulette" named after them.

Right wingers do not effect left wing politics or present much of a challenge by ranting and complaining during left wing control. The reverse was true when right wingers had control of the government.

However, power entrenchment is unhealthy for a free society. It abrogates personal autonomy of free people, who will eventually begin to push back and force greater responsibility upon system representatives. Government and its representatives must make decisions that will succeed based on doing the right thing rather than because their positions on issues garner them greater influence, power, or wealth.

Influences like the Tea Party, and rise of Libertarians have been pushing back on right wing power entrenchment. I don't mind at all to see one kid from inside the machinery making everybody nervous. I hope it turns into a movement. Let's blow the noon whistle everyday to celebrate whistle blowers, especially for the one's going to prison.
