English Exile, yes the real heroes yesterday, were the truly massive and overwhelming number of Moscow residents that said no to the Bolotnaya Bstards, these are the Moscow residents that now compose not only the ones who have always objected to the ‘opposition’ of liars, deceivers and paid agents in its entirety but also increasingly other activists in good faith, who were mislead as Hamsters and Penguins before by the Bolotnaya Bstards, and who finally woke up to the way they were being exploited by the Bolotnaya extremist violent fringe for foreign gain. Moscow its residents, its police can be very proud this day of their intellect, thoughtfulness and reasoning, the regions salute you. BTW love your phrase “Sobchak, bourgeois slapper” – could I suggest she was tweeting “more envelopes needed urgently, it’s a disaster in terms of turnout, what happened to all the other envelopes I prepared”. Meanwhile there seemed to be reports of increased activities in bars and restaurants by those carrying envelopes. Seems maybe there is a free lunch after all! A slapper up meal! It seems many have taken Sobcheque for a ride, both on the streets and in the bedroom!

Nemtsov reckons he wasn't arrested because he went to the protest meeting by trolleybus and the cops mustn't have noticed him arriving at the trollybus stop next to the Polytechnical Museum; he also must have been hard to notice amongst the droves of journalists who surrounded and outnumbered the "leaders of the opposition".
So he rode there on a trollybus: whither the "March of a Million"? Is there soon going to be a "Trolleybus Ride of a Million"?
I should imagine that seeing the party was already over before it had started, Nemtsov jumped onto the next trolleybus to arrive.
Sobchak, bourgeois slapper that she is, was arrested whilst twittering. I wonder what she was busily tapping into he iPhone or whatever: "To the barricades, comrades!"
The "comrades" with iPhones, that is.
And 13 million Muscovites ignore these poseurs who are described in theWest as "leaders".

The one crucial part in the description of this event that has been missing in most coverage including RT is that Moscow authorities offered several alternative venues for this rally only to be refused by the organizers! Making sure the rally is not authorized was a must for the organizers! They needed an excuse why only a few hundred to a few thousand by some accounts showed up. They need to sell the story to the media of being 'oppressed' and not just ignored by population. They need a scandal. That is what they get paid to create.
