Columnist Sobesednik.ru Mikhail Osokin – about the various talents of the members of the highest echelons of power.

At the festival of art song in the Leningrad region came a distinguished guest: the fire suddenly hooked the head of the state Duma Sergey Naryshkin, and also sang.

Bards raised a thumbs-up: “But sings well”.

Sings well in the Duma, however, not only Naryshkin: there together with him in concerts love to participate and other members.

And some even sing their own songs – for example the head of the Duma Jahan Pollyeva. The lyrics sometimes seem mysterious and give the scientists plenty of food for thought. They were especially intrigued by the way in one of the songs polyevoi – “clean-shaven snake. Speculation: maybe it’s a hint of some office intrigue? Signal some kind of snake?

However, a lot of talent is not only in the Duma, but in the Kremlin and in the government. The Minister of foreign Affairs Sergey Lavrov publishes his poems, and assistant to the President Vladislav Surkov has recorded an album with rock musicians, and it is called the author of the novels published under the pseudonym Dubovitsky. And it is interesting that in these novels the author writes about the total corruption in government agencies and even uses bold images: “Wait for me” – gently, as TV about Putin, he said.”

Very bold poetry and the economy Minister Alexei Ulyukayev, unlike his official speeches. For example, the speaker despite the obvious facts tried to downplay the scale of the crisis and the collapse of the ruble: “If your revenues and expenses denominated, you must be absolutely still, what’s the course”. But in poetry it is more blatant:

To the fortuneteller do not walk – go to the moneychanger…
Get lucky at krainosti rubles.

But all Russian politicians far from their former Belarusian counterpart Anatoly Rubinov, who had also decided to combine work as the head of the upper house of Parliament with the publication of his poems:

Something liver something liver rashadiya.
And how will fall in the kidneys gives.
I sleeping pill would be very prigodilas.
Yes, the diarrhea that is not stops.

And reading these lines, you begin to understand how difficult it is to be the big boss in Minsk when Lukashenko.
