“On February 4th, 2013, Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, addressed the Duma...”

Likely penned by Ted Nugent.
Russians are very cultured educated people just waiting to be set free from the reigns of corruption. They are immune to the PC disease eating away at the West. Heck, Russians also HATE socialism/communism more than anyone. The only people for communism during Soviet times were the party members.
The very word “communism” has been a private joke among Russians since the 60s.
The bottom line is that Russia is going in the right direction while we are on a rocket car going backwards into socialism.
You are entitled to your opinion.
I tried a number of different methods but for me two things worked well:
1.) Pimsleur
2.) Listening to music in the target language (and looking up the lyrics)
I discovered Pimsleur years ago and it is the best method I have found to date - besides moving to a country where the language is spoken and getting into an intimate relationship with one of its locals. (The fastest way to learn is on a pillow they say, and I can confirm this too.)
Later, I read the book, "How to Learn Any Language" by Barry Farber and just before the end of the book, he too discovered Pimsleur and thought that it was like magic. He did speak 25 languages.
A few of my friends are linguists and I introduced them to Pimsleur, they too love it.
If you have a better method that you can learn while driving, walking or without reading along with a manual, please let me know, I would love to try it. I've been meaning to brush up on my lousy Russian.

The hardest sound for us to say is the slavic 'Szcz' as seen in the city name, "Szczecin", or at the end of the word "barszcz" (borscht or beet-root soup).
When I first learned, they said to pronounce it like the sound in 'Danish Charter.
Then the other one people have trouble with is km as in "kminek" (fennel). Think of saying c'mere (come here) in English without a space between the c and m.
>> I am tired of arguing with European (Jews, mainly)
GFY.
Does GFY mean what I think it means? I have no idea what you’re talking about. You and another person on this thread seem to believe I am an Antisemite? The point is that I am a Jew and in Europe I tend to socialize with other Jews, Europeans, unlike myself, but conservatives, like myself, who are staunchly critical of what has become of the “American way of life.” I said I am tired of arguing with them, which is to say, I am tired of defending America all the time.
That’s pretty funny.
“But what to do? Where to go?”
Come back and fight.

Gollly Lee! I had no idea that all this was so EASY!
Yup, all yah gotta do is tuck your tail and run whenever a foe of Liberty stands in your way.
BTW m.m., don’t let the door hit yuh where the Good Lord split yuh.
One needs millions to move to Switzerland...or just about anywhere else in the world.
It is very difficult to get into New Zeland. People here are behaving as if one can just pick up and move, like going from New Jersy to Florida.
Other countries don’t want others. Not at all. It is very difficult.
No need for "eeeks" yet.
;^)
I do think, however, that this would certainly qualify one for the 16 May residencia visa. You can very likely find good info on this at sites like sovereignsociety.com and so forth.
If you need the name of a good (and honest!) Panamanian lawyer, I can surely provide one. FReepmail me.
Best, SAJ
Sorry — prev mssg should read “all sorts of benefits”, not “a sorts of benefits”.
Someone get a rope.
The Slavic and other languages have the sound represented by Ж or ż or in English pronounced like the "J" in the French name "Jacques".
The other hard ones to distinguish are Ч, Ц, and Ш (ts, ch, and sh in English...)
But my Russian sucks...
