Just Sayin'

When you've just tossed your president and appoint an interim president to govern in his place pending elections, don't choose somebody who shows up for work dressed like this:

 

 

That, kids, is the standard uniform of an old-school, KGB thug - the dark, crew-neck sweater and the unmistakable black leather coat. Putin's got dozens in his closet from the good old, USSR days.    In that part of the world that costume is a symbol, it has meaning, and the meaning ain't good.

 

Congratulations, interim president Oleksandr Turchynov.  Try to go easy on the dissidents before the March elections.
