Putin wasn't making fun of your Eagle; he was stating a fact. Just look at the olive branch the Eagle is holding in one claw and note how the branch is completely devoid of olives. To extend an olive branch in it's customary sense drives right to the contradiction of America's true integrity if an olive branch containing no olives is offered in peace. Very observant of Putin if you ask me!
But the truth is, Putin really is laughing at the USA as a country. He is laughing because American politics keeps proving him right. A famous quote of Putin's while making reference to the USA is, "Democracy is a farce..".
Again, Putin is stating a fact. He was stating that the American brand of Democracy is indeed a farce. It doesn't work. Americans have proven that fact to the world over and over again since the time of Eisenhower. But that's only the American brand of Democracy that we're talking about here; not the 'other' brand of Democracy that works just fine in more civilized Free countries.
