Russian Media Explodes With Vulgar and Racist Anti-Obama Rhetoric - 'Obama Schmoe,' monkey comparisons and 'chimney sweep' used to disparage American president

It’s rare that Fox News mouthpiece Bill O’Reilly expresses an opinion that even those on the American left embrace, but his summary of Russian President Vladimir Putin seems to reflect the attitude of just about all Americans.
