Putin The Plagiarizer?
Not only did Moscow have spies inside U.S. Central Command and alert Saddam as to U.S. troop movements in Iraq, but Putin also may have a little history as a plagiarizer.
According to the March 25, 2006 Washington Times,
"Vladimir Putin -- KGB spy, politician, Russian Federation president, 2006 host of the Group of Eight international summit -- can add a new line to his resume: plagiarist.A little cheating in college—that sounds familiar. Any other famous names come to mind? See this.
"Large chunks of Mr. Putin's mid-1990s economics dissertation on planning in the natural resources sector were lifted straight out of a management text published by two University of Pittsburgh academics nearly 20 years earlier, Washington researchers insisted yesterday...."

I guess that helps to explain why the Russian economy hasn't improved. The leader of their country needs to steal 20-year-old outdated economic data and from the University of Pittsburgh of all places.
So the underlying message here is don't go to the University of Pittsburgh if you want to go into economics.
My bosses husband just go into pitt for law. Not that that has anything to do with Putin. The Russians should be rolling in oil money/blood money from Iran. Between them and China they all should be able to pull of an apocalypse to bring the second coming of their "messiah".
Mr. Seals said Bosses. He ment Boss's or Boss'. English was not my best subject.
lol...didn't mean anything against the University of Pittsburgh. For all I know, they might have the top economic Department in the country.
Putin and Sadaam ..strange bedfellows no?

Why am I not surprised to see Kennedy's name mentioned?
God Bless America, God Save The Republic.
Cheating at the college level is rampant. But, somehow, we expect our leaders not to have done so.
I sometimes worry about cheating in medical schools.
Not surprised at all. We have so many reasons not to trust the Russians. We are learning even more from the Saddam tapes now that they're out.
Russia is a weak ally at best. They've been invested in Iraq/Iran for years. They've also been heavily involved in Syria in the past. They aren't part of the Coalition,but I still trust them more than the Muslim Nations.
I would never call Russia an ally and especially with Putin at its helm.
All they see is past glory and the US as their mortal enemy in the way to regain it.
I trust and can verify that Russia still has nuclear weapons pointed at America.
So the leader of Russia can plagiarize his doctoral thesis. It's such a pity he cannot plagiarize America's success, too!
Politics as usual, huh?
Putin doesn't have our best interests at heart. We're foolish to believe otherwise.
Always:
Who does?
Mark,
The deluded Utopians believe that the world is one big, happy family. These same deluded people think that it doesn't matter that Putin is former KGB.
