    Boy if this ain't true I don't know what is.

    My dad just emailed me this. I'm sure it's something he got in a forward by email but it's still true as can be.

    I'll just copy and paste it just like I received it.

    Vladimir Putin allegedly said off the record:

    "Negotiating with Obama is like playing chess with a pigeon.
    The pigeon knocks over all the pieces, shits on the board and
    then struts around like it won the game."

    True!

    Except for the part about Putin saying it.

    Silly.

    Can't possibly be true if you got it in an email.

    If Putin said that, it would be front page headlines (on SOME newspapers) and replayed every 10.3 seconds on FOX.

    Perhaps I should clarify... Obviously since it was a forwarded email, and obviously since it says "allegedly said"... I did not think it was fact.

    But the sentiment is still dead on, and that was the point.
