 Roy Zimmerman - Lyrics "Russian Limbaugh"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
This is the story of Vladimir Zhirinovsky — an unlikely folk hero perhaps, he's being called the Hitler of Russia.
Thanks to Darren Zieger for alerting me to this article from the Washington Post: Russian Revises His Heritage — Anti-Semitic Politician Zhirinovsky Admits Father Was Jewish.

The award was presented during a ceremony held in January in Duluth.
Fishing experience: I was catching sockeye salmon on the Russian River in Alaska three years ago.
Hooked into one, it stripped line off downstream until there was only about 5 wraps left, turned around, came upstream at warp speed, stripped off line again until about all gone, then, came straight at me at full speed, went between my legs and about 15 feet onto the shore.
