The only successor to President Putin is President Putin himself and we could of course dream about President Putin stepping down voluntarily and picking out successor which would be probably as bad as him.

For the third time,
For a third term;
And, Vladimir Putin was sworn in as the Russian President.

The President, the Administration and the campaign need a theme. I am concerned that the President is seen as a tactician without an overall strategy of his plan for the country.

I don't want my president to be a TV star. You don't have to be on television every minute of every day - you're the president, not a rerun of 'Law & Order'. TV stars are too worried bout being popular and too concerned about being renewed.

Putin And Sharon
Putin and Sharon they may live miles apart
But they have much in common each has a frosty heart
They both are anti- social and people they control
And they see those who are different as bereft of a soul.
Putin and Sharon come from different background
But in these autocratic leaders similarities to be found
They both are anti-muslim or so 'twould seem to me
And their soldiers have committed crimes against humanity.
Putin and Sharon on others inflict pain
And long after they are dead and gone their legacies will remain
Their strong dislike for allah's followers in glimpses they reveal
And the wounds of the divisions they've created will take ages to heal.
In Putin and in Sharon similarities you'll find
They have in them the worst traits in the race of humankind
In their narrowness and racism divisions they create
And they give a fresh breath of life to that awful virus hate.

Putin's Witch Hunt Hooligan Crimes
under leader Vladimir Putin
criminal thief must be in jail
men like Mikhail Khodorkovsky
who take an anti-party stand
Putin's Stalinized words
ring dictatorship hollow
as everyone who now lives
in Putin's spun cage knows
thieves in our resurrected
Russia don't exclusively
belong in a jail sentenced
they belong in government
thieves strut in and around
their power base Kremlin
every official high and low
steals steals steals we know?
reaping sly political party line
means not ending up in prison
golden eggs government laid
means choice owning a chunk
of Cyprus Nice or London town
purchase power stems ultimately
from good political calculations
modern 'Gulag' is said to mean
the entire Soviet repressive system
the set of procedures that prisoners
once called the state 'meat-grinder'
the arrests the KGB interrogations?
the transport in unheated cattle cars
forced labor destruction of families
the years spent if survived in exile
the early political unnecessary deaths
beware beware beware Vladimir
with his witch hunt hooliganism
charges Putin's 'regime routinely
jails dissident journalists activists'
Vladimir Putin has his victims
display sit in glass walled cages
any brave citizens who V. Putin
deems dissidents who speak seek
to 'undermine Russian democracy'
Putin's refusal to tolerate dissents
in his new six-year term as president
means any all criticism of V. Putin?
Putin's Stalinized hooliganism is
actually a maximum seven years
Pussy Riot sentence 2 years lenient
Pussy Riot achieved martyr status!
Putin faces dilemma of the tyrant
played in blood throughout the ages
dilemma now foreign policy playing
in Syria in revolt dark bloody form
principle politic relaxation risks
being taken as a sign of weakness
punishment hard too heavy-handed
could crime embolden opponents?

Russia under President Putin is less democratic and less free today than when he assumed office. If Russia cannot fulfill its obligation to the G-8 and maintain a high standard of democratic governance then its membership should be suspended.

President Putin and the Russian security services operate like a Super PAC. They deploy millions of dollars to weaponize our own political opposition research and false narratives. When we are consumed by partisan rancor, we cannot combat these external forces as they seek to divide us against each another, degrade our institutions, and destroy the faith of the American people in our democracy. I respect the work that this Congress does in carrying out its constitutional responsibilities, including in this inquiry, and I am here to help you to the best of my ability. If the President, or anyone else, impedes or subverts the national security of the United States in order to further domestic political or personal interests, that is more than worthy of your attention. But we must not let domestic politics stop us from defending ourselves against the foreign powers who truly wish us harm.

I’ll be fine without you (part 5)
Walking out leaving you alone
Telling you it’s now all gone
Our relationship is through
I’ll be fine without you
Sick of your lies
And all your failed tries
Sorry ain’t enough
When it’s all tough
Can’t take anymore
When my heart’s already sore
Time to let go
I’ll be fine without you
Looked at your pictures
Remembered those crazy adventures
Let a tear drop
But I know it’s gotta stop
Sick of late dates
And your bad taste
Just have to say no
I’ll be fine without you
The Reason For The Split
To be in a relationship that ends,
For one to claim they do not know what happened...
Should not have been a relationship that began.
For someone not to be conscious,
Of their own relationship...
Could mean they do not wish to admit,
An activity or lack of providing it...
Was the reason for the split.
And...
If the other one involved in the same relationship,
Has a difficult time remembering it took place...
Well,
There is no need to continue a nosey probing.
