Liberals yearn for a 99% Hitler

NPR had a biweekly Navalny Watch, where they gave everyone a quick update on our Favorite Russian Blogboy. I knew he existed, I knew he got arrested, I knew he fled to Germany after getting hit with the Russian Death Ray, and that he decided "Putin is about to fail! Time to run back into Russia again!" only to immediately get re-arrested.

I remember how his name came up when Mercenary General Leroy Jenkins made a speed run for Moscow. And then everyone forgot about him again.

And I heard when he got sent to Siberia. I heard how he was writing letters to his mom from Siberia. I heard he was in and out of the Siberian hospital for unmentionable reasons.

I got the man's whole life story, in dribs and drabs, over what must have been at least six years.

Dude was like that AAA baseball player you keep hearing about as someone coming up in the league, who never quite makes it. Not high profile by any means, but someone clearly has a hard on for him, so you're always getting an earful.
