Conchita Wurst, Drag Queen Eurovision Winner, Attacked By Vladimir Putin
The Huffington Post | By James Nichols
We guess we shouldn't be surprised, but Russian President Vladimir Putin has some choice words about the victory of Austrian drag queen Conchita Wurst at Eurovision 2014.
During a recent dinner in St. Petersburg, Putin, while calling himself "personally very liberal," addressed the win by Wurst, rooting his perspective within what he thinks the Bible says about "the two genders."

"People can do what they want, but they shouldn't be aggressive or put it up for show"
Voicing an opinion is putting something up for show, forcing something on someone is aggression?
Telling people what to do, isn't letting them do what they want?
I COULD GO ON BUT...........
He's saying he doesn't like somebody, for doing exactly what he WAS doing. omg o.o
I'm fine with critical, but hypocritical???????
