Freedom of Speech
During a party, a young American Diplomat confronted an older Russian Diplomat. Both had been drinking pretty well all night...
The young Yank states... "America is a Better place than Russia! Do you know why that is?"
Russian: "No... tell me why..."
Yank: "Because.. here in America we have Freedom! Freedom for ourselves in what we do and most importantly... Freedom of Speech! Here in America, I can stand in front of the White House and yell out 'The President of the United States is an Idiot' and no one would do anything to me! That's Freedom of speech and that's why we are better than you!"
The older Russian stares at the young American Diplomat for a short time then starts to slowly shake his head....
Russian: "You are so misguided with your propoganda! We too have Freedom of speech in Soviet Russia! I too, can stand in the middle of Red Square and yell out 'The President of the United States is an Idiot' and no one would do anything to me either!"
