Leaders column is in the news today

Leaders column for The Moscow News
A new "Tandemocracy" column has just started at the newspaper where I draw cartoons. In it, our russian leaders, who are obligatory featured in every cartoon riding a tandem bike, are never tired of new amazing adventures. Such as, for instance, putting out forest fires, finding bits of ancient cultures on the sea bed, testing new cars and submarines and much more. Sparkling humorous ideas are supplied by Tim Wall, the visual interpretation is by your humble servant. Here's some of the recent ones:

You won't get me here!
Беляки в генеральском собрании,
Проходившем в Сибири, в изгнании,
Утвердили прави-
телем Русской земли
Колчака, адмирала по званию.
До сих пор удивляюсь, как Верховным Правителем России генералы выбрали адмирала.
А. Дубровский, 2011
In a general meeting that was held in Siberia, in exile, White guards approved Kolchak, Admiral officer, for a head of Russian land (I still wonder how Russia's generals have chosen an admiral as supreme ruler)(makeshift translation of A. Dubrovski's poem).
Happy birthday!
A series of birthday cards goes on, today featuring Vitalik, a guitar player from Moscow's live trip-hop band Salto.
