    It makes me nostalgic for the good old days when Russian presidents were merely drunken buffoons instead of wannabe fascists.

    Will Bill Clinton give the eulogy?

  2. Angrier and Angrier Says:

    “Wannabe” fascists?

  3. B. Minich Says:

    I’m surprised he was still alive (well, not in the fact that he didn’t die - we’d hear about that. Just that he lived this long.)

  4. Angrier and Angrier Says:

    Per B. Minich, I’m sure Yeltsin screwed up a lot of people’s dead pools during his lifetime. He seemed like he was on the verge of dying for 10 years.

  5. NEBRASKA 94 95 & 97 Says:

    Anyone have the video where Yeltsin was dancing?

  6. Brendan Loy Says:

    I just added it to the post, along with the video of Clinton and Yeltsin losing it.

    Is it disrespectful to post funny videos of Boris Yeltsin on the post about his death? Perhaps so, but as Lisa said when I asked her that question just now, I hope when I die, people have a good laugh about the funny things I did in my life. To wit, if this blog is still online when I die, I hereby give my guestbloggers permission to post the video of me tripping over the tennis net. In fact, I insist on it. :)

  7. Brendan Loy Says:

    On second thought, I’m going to make a new post with the videos. Not because of concern about being disrespectful so much as because this post has already scrolled way down the page.
