A quote from President Dmitry Medvedev of Russia, as reported by Russian news agencies.

Sure the cold war is over.. but I just love how Russian news agencies re-report what Medvedev said.. He decided. He canceled. So sayseth the shepard, so sayseth the Pootie Poot.

Additionally, Dmitry Medvedev’s hatred of daylight savings time didn’t stop there.  He went on,

This really disturbs the human biorhythm. It’s just irritating. People either oversleep or wake up early and don’t know what to do with the hour.

So here we have the President of Russia, concerned with his citizenry oversleeping–which does somehow rank up there with former President and soon to be President Putin’s call for Russians to have sex to get the population back up again.

President D’s words STILL didn’t stop there. He went on,

We will have prolonged daylight and I think this will be healthy for our country. People have asked me for this several times. And I’m not talking about unhappy cows or other animals who don’t understand the time change and don’t understand that the milkmaid is going to milk them at a different time.

While Russia’s problems don’t revolve around crises regarding oversleeping and daylight savings time, the President’s choice to address it with such fanfare heralds back to the old days of Red vs America tensions..

This would never happen here.. now would it? Maybe this is why the FCC is going to test broadcasting the President of the United States on all digital devices: He, too, will one day apprise the populace of such important affairs.

If sarcasm doesn’t come across well in text, I’m note: I am being sarcastic.
