Imitation folk creativity is alive and well in Putin's Russia

[Natalie Kononenko]

This is marvelous.  Where did you find this, Bob?  I'm assuming that this
is "folk creation" of the type described by Frank Miller in Folklore for
Stalin.

Has anyone other member of this group seen anything similar?  Does anyone
know which folklorist might have "helped" our babushka with her verse?
