[High Praise! to Stupid Is a Five Letter Word]

About the title: I know history. I know that the USSR was an abomination on the face of this earth. Doesn’t change the fact that they chose a spectacular national anthem. Musically, it’s powerful, stirring, and reverent, the way anthems ought to be.

This is left over from 2008. Still good, but it could use some updating. Maybe some references to lady parts, school lunches, and Obamacare.

It really is an exceptional anthem. Just don’t sing it in a submarine.

Holy crap! What a boring piece of music! Just listening to it makes me want to punch the lot of them in the stupid monkey faces!
I suppose if they had incorporated this:
