Yep, Old Pooty-Poot has a Taste for Sharp Humor, All Right

Putin on alleged rapist Israel President: "We all envy him": "Russian leader Vladimir Putin showed his taste for sharp humour when he met Israel's Prime Minister Ehud Olmert in Moscow Wednesday, with an apparent ironic jab at the rape allegations swirling around the country's president.

'Say hello to your president. He really surprised us...,'' Putin said to Olmert as reporters were being ushered out of the room just after the two men got down to their talks in an ornate reception room in the Kremlin.

According to the information posted on The New York Times' Web site, Putin said that Katsav 'turned out to be quite a powerful man. He raped 10 women. I never expected it from him. He surprised all of us. We all envy him.'"
