The Russian Army Sings A Love Song To Alabama

By Dan Filler

Call me hyperbolic, but it simply does not get much better than this.  Watch the Red Army Choir (alongside Finnish rockers The Leningrad Cowboys) express their heartfelt love for the State of Alabama.   I've always thought that folks like Jeff Sessions and Troy King have a lot more in common with Vladmir "look in my eye and sense my soul" Putin than people recognize.  It's that old horseshoe theory of politics: at some point, the right and the left converge.  And what better place to come together than in concert (sans Neil Young, to be sure...)   H/T to To The Point.
