With gratitude to Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, Pope John Paul II, and countless others who fought against communism, let us celebrate the anniversary of the destruction of the Berlin Wall. And may we never forget...never, ever forget...
Update: And by the way, communism is still alive - if increasingly desperate - in Cuba.
Update II: Well, whaddaya know! Barry dropped into Berlin via satellite hookup and talked about his favorite subject.
Completely missing the significance of the destruction of the Berlin Wall – and failing to mention Reagan and Thatcher – the Preshizzle put the whole thing in the context of his own election.
The ideology, the Chicago-style politics, the divisive style – all are worrisome. But I sometimes wonder if the narcissism isn’t the most dangerous thing of all. A president who gives every appearance of believing that America has labored through peace and war for more than 230 years to finally produce its greatest achievement – the Barack Obama administration – pretty obviously suffers from some severely warped judgment. This cannot end well.

Powerful stuff, Paco, powerful stuff.
Never, ever forget!
Not to mention, fight to your last bullet...
Welcome, Kaboom!
Wonderful tribute, Paco.
But let us also not forget Red China and their slave labor camps--the jewel in the crown of every Communist regime.
THE BERLIN WALL
stalin sent tons of food to nazi germany to feed the nazi army while starving his own citizens to death..
The worry is not confined to the USA. People of goodwill in the small number of real democracies are increasingly concerned about what many see as a loss of way by America. And, it must be said, in our own countries as well. But the strength of the USA has underpinned democracy for over 60 years...if the Great Republic falls, how long can the outposts hold?
Old Sailor Man: Good point. If America goes down the tubes, there's no place to run to.
The world is burning while Obmama fiddles,er, while Obama asks all the pertinent questions and engages his mirror in a constructive manor.
Er! That would be "manner"
. Must have been thinking of that To the Manor Born thing. My bad.
/not really;)
