Spy Swap

 

Anna Chapman, spy

There'll be none of that big city excitement anymore, Ms. Chapman, you're going to Moscow!

 

In case your old Uncle Ned's still having trouble getting a grasp on Russian-US affairs, here's definitive proof that the Cold War is really no more: being a Russian spy ain't no big thang.

 

Remember the 10 accused (and indicted) Russian spies? They've already plead guilty (yep, no Rosenberg/Alger Hiss drama here). And for their scheming, illegal ways, they're....going home. For everyone, but El Diario La Prensa columnist Vicky Pelaez, that means Mother Russia.

 

With their sentencing comes free housing, a monthly stipend of $2000 (in Russia!), and an all-expense paid trip for their children to visit (if they want, I mean, it is Russia).  But not so fast, the deportation comes with other terms: a good old fashioned spy swap! Russia's handing over four spies of their own.

 

Now this may seem like a mild punishment, but boy, you know how touchy those Russians are about their psychological warfare and other spy tactics! God knows Anya's going to throw one hell of a tantrum when she sees the CIA version of waterboarding. Vodka shots for every time you hear "sloppy technique!"
