But you know what's really good to know, Ralph?

That the ones that "get away" tend to do such good and act so nobly in the countries to which they escape.

Like the Russian emigre Jews who helped to vote in Begin and the Likud in Israel, along with their Sephardic emigre counterparts.

Like the Cuban emigres whose political clout have done such wonders for US elections since 1960.

Spare me, please.
