Russian translator needed

... for this video, which is probably not work safe (depending, of course, on where you work).

Hello, do you need rus translator?

It's a sure sign of springtime in Russia...when the phalli take flight.

There's a YouTube version with subtitles, although I'm not sure how accurate they are.

Actually, that is chess champion Garry Kasparov who is being interrupted while making a speech before Russians opposed to Vladimir Putin.

Translation:

Kasparov: 'I think we have to be thankful for the opposition's demonstration of the level of discourse we need to anticipate. Also, apparently most of their arguments are located beneath the belt.'

Someone in the audience: 'Finally the political power shows its face!'

Kasparov: 'Well, if that's its face...'
[Everyone laughs.]

I should clarify that I'm pretty sure the subtitles on the YouTube video a linked to ARE NOT accurate, but they are funny nevertheless. Remember what Steve Martin said, "Comedy is not pretty."
