My personal Russian experience in the last 24. My barber, Rueben, came from the Ural Mountains. Great guy. Yesterday as he cut I said, "Rueben, I suspect that Russians may have more sense than Americans." "Why so," he replied.
"Because we fired our CIA chief for having a mistress. Putin was head of the KGB and he has had a string of mistresses."
Rueben reinforced our friendship by blurting out, "Who cares?" "Life is good now in Russia and Putin is doing a good job."
We have previously talked at length about Chernobyl, the Wall, and the old days in Russia. Rueben has no illusions.
I am tempted to say we should trade Presidents with Russia but I'm not ready for the FEMA camp yet. Heh.
