    Once upon a time, one of my sisters had a boyfriend who thought he was the next Hunter S. Thompson. He wasn't. He kept giving me this insipid drivel to read. I finally told him how bad he was. He married the daughter of an English professor, and my sister is doing genetic research at the University of Iowa. The burden of an editor is great.

    lol, that's pretty good.  I think my friend is already off sulking because I didn't hesitate to tell the truth Laughing

    You did tell her your opinion, and maybe she's disappointed in how you just don't understand Russian politics? That's just a guess, not a theoryLaughing

    She's something of an ideologue.  "Not understanding Russian politics" would amount to not agreeing with her.  You know the type, I'm sure.

    Anyway, I don't need to know anything of politics to know when someone is employing slanted binary logic.

    To clarify, it is for political reasons that logic serves politics, and does not guide politics.
