In 1922 the Cheka was renamed and reorganized as the GPU
(pronounced Gay-Pay-Oo), from the initial letters of the
Russian words for "State Political Administration."
That same year the GPU became the OGPU (Oh-Gay-Pay-Oo),
when the Russian word for "consolidated" or "unified"
was added to its name, but both names were used almost
interchangeably until 1934.

So does that mean the Russians call the GOP the
"Gay Oh Pay"? Inquiring minds want to know!

Don't blame it on Jeb Bush:
“It’s not about French fries; it’s about freedom.”
