“Bitter, exhausted laughter. Who had Russia in the pool? I took China, so Im out”
We should have listened to that Khrushchev fellow Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you ... Nikita Khrushchev, remark at the Polish embassy in Moscow, Nov. 18, 1956.
They fouled our fields with Pueraria lobata (Kudzo), yet we did nothing, because our yields were high, even after our yields began to decline we still did nothing to root out the invasive vine. Now our fields are choked with this cursed vine and our crops are threatened, what shall we do?
I think what Khruschev said was, “We will Barry you.” BTW, I had Russia in the pool, but I didn’t expect it this soon.
