More of the Absurd

So the Russian media tonight have gone a bit mad reporting that Saakashvili won’t be attending Obama’s inauguration. Last week, I heard stories about Russians furiously discussing among themselves whether Putin or Medvedev would go. I don’t know what’s wrong with this place. No foreign leaders, as is standard practice, are invited to the inauguration. Why must conspiracy be seen everywhere?
