Peace Corps?

Comment by SeveralTimes

Why are the Peace Corps in the Ukraine, a US-puppet democracy and not in Russia? (that's a rhetorical question, no need to answer it). Do Ukrainians often talk to you about the CIA-financed Orange Revolution and their views on it?So, you're in the Peace Corps, "serving your country".
