AxisWatch: The lads get together for a boat ride


Our friends in the Axis have been up to their usual tricks this week. This time it was the turn of Russia and Venezuela to show their unity and dedication to the cause. Russian ship Peter the Great set sail from the Russian Northern Fleet's base in Severomorsk. I'm not sure exactly where that is but I'm sure it's cold, grey and nasty there. From there the fleet will travel 15,000 nautical miles to engage in some "manouevres" with the Venezuelan navy. At that point they will all get pissed and laugh at Dimtri's "Bushims" poster that he promised to bring over. This deployment comes at the same time as an announcement that big Hugo is heading off to Moscow for a visit in a few weeks, and increasingly close ties between Russia and Cuba and other Latin American nations have been forged in recent weeks. These events have been linked to the US's reaction to Russia's intervention in Georgia recently. Advice for the US, and particularly for Sarah Palin, in the horrifically possible event that she ends up being leader of the "free" world, is to back the hell away. Hugo and Dmitri said in a joint press conference: "Misunderestimate. That's not even a real word!!! Hahahaa what a dumbass!!!"
