The Best Of Pravda
Very early this month, we linked to the Popular Science story on the Top Ten Worst Jobs In Science. Well, this week Pravda picked up on it and reprinted it. Although after my 1991 scientific tour of the Soviet Union, I would have to say pretty much any job in that bureacracy would make the list.
Never sticklers for things like the law, apparently Pravda thinks Putin should bend it severly to keep his job past term limits. They do love their former KGB agents.
Given the gulag and other Soviet atrocities, this headline:
Strikes me as the pot calling the kettle black. At least our executions come after the trial.
