I've spent some time behind the former iron curtain. Roughly 2 years in Zagreb, in the 1993-95 timeframe.
I'll tell you, the Russians and 'commies' don't bother me. We both fought the Germans in WWII. We share the ISS, and do a lot of space launches with them. The fear factor promoted by the left is another hoax.
What troubles me, and should trouble paddler, is the rampant spread of radical islam. Someday when that pot really boils over, you can bet your boots that us, and Russia, will once again be fighting a common enemy. We kinda-sorta are already.
So to paddler......get a clue.
