Russia's Communists Sound Like Rahm Emanuel

This is what the Russian Communists are saying:

Russia's Communists expect the global financial crisis will cause social unrest and help them challenge for power, the party's leader said on Saturday. Gennady Zyuganov told the party's annual congress the Communists should make maximum use of the growing public discontent caused by the economic downturn to try to restore their political strength.

And this is what Rahm Emanuel, Obama's Chief of Staff said 11 days ago:

He stressed that the new administration would "throw long and deep," taking advantage of the economic crisis to push wholesale changes in health care, taxes, financial re-regulation and energy.
