Great post! My neighbor, world traveled and brilliant is from Russia, a US citizen for fifteen years. He proudly states the US is the greatest country on earth. He believes the best thing to ever happen to the US is Barack Obama because nothing will bring this country back faster and further right to conservatism than Barack Obama. He says the pendulum is already swinging. He despises Russia and claims the government are thieves with Putin being the worst criminal of them all. He says they steal horribly from the people. I responded, “just like this country, huh?” He became frighteningly serious, looked right in my eyes and said, “not even close, you don’t have a clue.” I had no choice but to believe him and truthfully, I was ashamed of myself.
Your neighbor sounds much like my child’s violin teacher, straight from Russia and the stories he has shared.
Downright chilling.
I’ve been to many town halls where those who came from commie land have stood up and implored people to wake up!
Mr. mm works with a Russian immigrant and that guy says the same thing.
He says we’re CRAZY for letting this country go the way it has. He cannot figure out what’s wrong with so many Americans.
I just head an interview with a think-tank Russia expert who was describing countries with influence over Syria. I was surprised to hear him describe Russia as “a kleptocracy” -— his exact words.
