I play gigs for a local club owner who is Albanian. He escaped from Yugoslavia to come here to the U.S.. He is one of he most patriotic people I know of btw. I was in his club last week and he was telling someone that he likes the old america he escaped to , but that at this point there is more freedom in Russia than there is in the United States and that in fact the modern U.S. reminds him now of the U.S.S.R. he escaped from.
I didn't hear this from some talk show host I heard it from somebody who actually lived it. It makes me sick to actually hear that and to repeat it hear. Our founding fathers must be turning in their graves.
