Moscow On The Hudson: The Pains Of Getting A Russian Visa {Gadling}
Jul 20th 2012 3:49PM I too went to the Russian Consulate on 91st street to get visas for myself and my nephew. We were going on a trip to St Petersburg flying via Amsterdam. I had all the required paperwork. As my nephew was a minor that included much additional work. I took one look at the zoo you describe outside and went to a Russian Visa Service. And, it was a good thing too that I picked a Russian Service. I paid them the Visa fee and their service fee. They said to come back in a week. I returned a week later and they had my visa but not my nephew's.First they said that the consulate wanted to interview him. I responded that he was 13 and away at camp and that his parents were in Europe. They already had a copy of the parent's passports and birth certificates but I suspect they lost them. Then I got the real reason. He had a Jewish last name and they wanted to make sure he was not a refusnik. I assured them that he was third generation American. Finally the owner of the service called the consulate and spoke in Russian for twenty minutes to the Consulate General. After he got off the phone he told me to come back the next day to get the Visa. I will never go through that again. Anti=Semitism is alive and wellin Russia!

Feb 23rd 2009 2:20PM Stupid? The award for stupid goes to the people of Tennessee for electing and re-electing this idiot.
He obviously reflects the views of a very undereducated and biased majority or else he would not be in office. The way to get rid of morons like this is to raise the education level of the general population.

Rosie's 45th Birthday Celebration {AOL Video Blog}
Mar 22nd 2007 3:52PM Elizabeth is the offensive one. Her views are so extremely consevative. Most of the time she argues without a real knowledge of the facts or history. She speaks so quickly and adamantly that
no one wants to listen to her opinions. And, she is never wrong.
