ROFL. Because we disagree with your politics, we like the soviets.

I never said anything like that, obviously. And unless you've seen this interview elsewhere (or cracked The Gulag Archipelago, or gleaned from other sources a sane perspective on the Soviet Union, which you obviously haven't) you can't possibly have any idea what I'm getting at.

My family is from there. I've been there twice. I've meet with top officials of the government, toured industrial and academic facilities. Met all during my childhood with dissidents, visitors and have read and studied the culture. My family is supposedly descended from Kiev-Russ royalty. Served as generals in the underground resistance against both the Soviets and the Nazis. Were hunted and killed by both the NKVD and SS and the lucky ones were captured and either sent to Siberian gulags or concentration camps. When my father visited in the mid-eightes he managed to meet up with his father who was living underground in the Ukraine since the war.
But I still have no idea what you are getting at yguy.

If you must resort to such obvious prevarication, the least you could to is be a little more artful about it for the sake of entertainment value.

Of course, I must be lying. Because yguy is brilliant.
