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.
