If not for her and Reagan the cold war would not have been over .. They were a great team
and Gorbachev had nothing to do with it huh?
1. OMG you are correct! Thats an event that usually accompanies a parting sea or a stone tablet!!!
2. Gorbachev was the pretension that the Left used to hide the fact that Reagan defeated the Evil Empire without firing a shot!!
Yup....
3. See, if the truth came out, folks would have realized that the Left was protecting communism all those years.
4. Why?
Whittaker Chambers wrote in his book WITNESS that liberals are/were incapable of ever effectively fighting Communism because they did not see anything in Communism that was antithetical to their own beliefs.
5. "SO ON WHOM or what do we bestow the title of the "evil empire's" killer? Was it Mikhail Gorbachev himself who pulled down what Lenin and Stalin had built up? It is tempting to finger Gorbachev, but this would ascribe too much wisdom and foresight to a man who wanted merely to reform, but not to relinquish, the empire.
At no point, however, did Gorbachev want to yield Moscow's pride of place as the number two superpower. And he was blissfully confident that the risks were tolerable: "There is no reason to fear the collapse or the end of socialism", Gorbachev assured Romanian leader Nicolae Ceausescu three weeks after the Berlin Wall had been breached and three weeks before the Romanian dictator was executed by his own people."
