Russian Communists warn: don't bury Lenin

Russian Communist Party leader Gennady Zyuganov is upset over calls for the burial of Vladimir Lenin's body.

Zyuganov said in a statement posted on his party's Web site that the call for Lenin's burial clearly had the Kremlin's blessing, and denounced it as "sacrilegious, ... irresponsible and provocative."

"It defies the nation's history and common sense," Zyuganov said. "With their filthy hands and drunken heads they are crawling into the sanctuary of the state. The desire to rake up remains of the dead is a great sin and a sign of mental pathology."

If the Commies don't want to bury him - that's fine. The murderous SOB doesn't deserve a proper burial, anyway. I say: administer the ultimate insult - auction him off on E-bay.
