It's easy to brush it off now, isn't it? But the fact remains that for all the hideous, fucked up shit the US has done, the Soviets had us beaten hands down.

I'm not sure what the answer is, but I'm fairly certain this isn't it. (edit- "This" being the uncontrolled leaking of sensitive information.)
