Facetious Friday

Reading today of the advisor to Barrack Obama who has resigned her position in the wake of published remarks in which she referred to Hillary Clinton as a "monster" brought to mind an old joke from the days of the Soviet Union. Two friends ran into each other on the streets of Moscow, and the English translation of the conversation went something like this:

Boris: "Did you hear that a man ran through the Kremlin today screaming, "Brezhnev is a fool! Brezhnev is a fool!"

Vladimir: No, what did they do to him? Arrest him as a political prisoner and commit him to a mental asylum?

Boris: "No, they executed him for revealing a state secret."
