How many more words could I really add?

A quote where he uses his sources critically might help.

 ...and a short flirtation at "People from western europe can't understand Russia." that you seemed to back off of.

Don't put words into my mouth.


A) See... the whole article?  it's sitting right there and it's not long and basically every paragraph.  He uses his sources

 

B) "Sources, Kaz, sources. Mention of Gaidar, Transparency International, Freedom House, Shleifer are worth a lot of ":D" as well. Bibliography of research defines it well enough to make a judgement if said research is a worthy material or not, any academic or school teacher will tell you that."

and

"(which is really typical middle-class European political analytic or enthusiast opinion"

come to mind.  You keep broaching these points then backing off them.

Saying Transparency International is a lot of :D then you backed off that you were critisizing it as a source.  Which is it?
