Good Night, Boris

Boris Yeltsin, a controversial figure in the former USSR as well as the Russia post-breakup, has died.

I actually have some positive things to say about him, but it's hard for me to post them in light of how he handed the country over to Vladimir Putin who I think is very destructive for his country and the world (and not just because he was former bestest friends with Bush who calls him Putey-Put).
