Sorry...I cant make the link work, but...

Its all because of his recent odd behavior.

Presiding over his latest "board meeting" at the Kremlin Putin revealed to his top advisors and the gathered top state officials that the "main reason" he invaded Ukraine was "to impress Jody Foster" whom he confessed had been his "life long crush", and he lamented that she will "never come to his side now" because his invasion went so poorly.

The board of top civilian and military officals at the meeting voted unanimously to have Putin removed from power and to be "put way" in a "rest home".

A successor will be announced soon.

Cant be!

I KNOW I saw it somewhere...on AP, or UPI, or MSNBC, or the WSJ. or sumpin...

Darn! Where IS it?

They even went on to quote Kissinger, who told Fareed Zukaria, that "this could be a ruse to fool the Hague". And that Putin could be "trying to pull a John Hinckley" by trying to evade charges of war crimes by claiming to be "not guilty by reason of insanity".

good luck in your search...but do keep in mind it could have been taken down as a hoax (especially today)

Russia doesn't take them to "rest homes" anyway do they? I thought they fell out of windows while in hospital. I know that's happened quite a bit in recent days.

They do rest homes, but only serve polonium tea there.

Made it up myself.

Wish it were true though. :)

It probably helps to "get it" if you're over a certain age (Google "John Hinckley Jr.").

I thought it was really clever...but that's also why I thought it was a fake... :-)

Jodie Foster gave it away to me (well, in addition to the improbability to start with)
