Well, to be fair, he didn't start that this time.  Frankly, as someone
who lived in Poland (which was effectively under Stalin's rule for
significant amount of time, though luckily (for me) I wasn't born then
yet), seeing the words "Comrade Stalin" (with capital "C" even!) and
"wisely said" in direct vicinity made me almost physically cringe.  And
I'm actually pretty immune to things like this.

While I often appreciate Emanuel's quips, this one was bordering on
offensive...

Just my 2 cents,
