The awards found heroes

The first victim of the war becomes true, a keen man unmistakably formulated. We extend the row and note: the first victim of patriotism is the taste ...

Recently, a series of posters dedicated to champions of the Beijing Olympiad appeared on Moscow streets. Not to everyone, but only those of them who play for CSKA. So to speak, departmental advertising.

Of the Rapyrist Shaneva and boxer Tishchenko, who had beaten less than sixty kilograms seen in the Beijing of his own eyes on Leningradsky Prospekt.

I am very happy for both. Give them God and continue to stab, to stick your competitors. However, on posters, over young faces, it was not written “glory to Russian athletes”, but quite another.

At first I did not believe my eyes: the human brain is not able to accommodate the vulgarity of this size the first time.

It was written on the posters: "They fought for their homeland."

My grandfather, the senior lieutenant of the Ponsorgists, did not play at the Beijing Olympics - he died near Leningrad in the fall of forty -first. In addition to him - for his homeland - fought and died in those years and never really counted millions of people.

Those who survived in that war partially spent the remaining days in the camps, partly in poverty and deprivations; Almost everything (minus the highest nomenclature of veterans' Soviets) spent these years in the “soviet” humiliation.

For more than sixty years, they recall about the fighters for a short while - closer to the ninth of May - mainly for inflating the country with a new sovereign pathos.

According to RIA Novosti, the Russian champions and prize -winners of the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing received the keys to the SUVs promised by him last Monday from the Russian Support Fund. Not on Toyota, as it was announced earlier, but on BMW. The guys - according to the fifth model, girls - in the third. All black.

Cool, but fair.

It was reported that the Minister of Sports, Tourism and Youth Policy of the Russian Federation Vitaly Mutko, President of the OKR Leonid Tyagachev, the manager of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Kozhin, the director of the Federal Security Service of Russia, Yevgeny Murov, took part in the award.

These also fight for their homeland, every day, or even several times a day. Already a groan is worth it.
