Yes, no one, nevermind the 100,000+ protests in Moscow.

In comparison to his multimillion supporters....

Protesters =/= all non-supporters. What kind of logic are you using? In the urban areas, the support for Putin is as low as about ~30 and something percent. However, the rural areas are still quite a lot pro-Putin. The opposition is multi-million as well, just so that you know. In fact, the opposition is some tens of millions.

Well fuck, that's more than my house.

[QUOTE=Boba_Fett;36259221]I'm not sure why anyone would buy a watch the price of an expensive car.[/QUOTE]
because they can
Putin isn't any worse than most other people in power.

The attention to detail is amazing.[/QUOTE]
That's bloody sexy. I don't think I've ever even wanted a watch before but damn.
I wonder if putin on a half a million dollar watch is any different from a 5 dollar one?
