Speaking Ill Of The Dead - Boris Yeltsin

Via Tim Worstall I come across this rather wonderful deconstruction of Boris Yeltsin - the latest ex-World leader to become deified simply by dint of dying. It portrays Boris as a corrupt drunken liar - basically, a malicious version of Charles Kennedy. And when you sit down and think about the legacy left by Yeltsin, it becomes very difficult to argue with that portrayal.

Boris for all his faults at least managed to gain some power, so in that respect he is better than Charles Kennedy.

Ok crap joke time: What has Mark Oaten and Charles Kennedy got in common? They both like to get shit faced of an evening....
