Mikhail is in town today. Perhaps I'll ask him about HIS views of Reagan. Believe his views of Reagan will be a bit more accurate than yours. Oh I agree totally, of course. But I am convinced mr Gorbatsjow is an extraordinary erudite and civilised man and therefore would never give negative comments in public about a deceased collegue. No one with a good upbringing would (yes you're right indeed: except me). But I think when you ask him unexpectedly he will feel embarassed cause it forces him to think fast and come up with something that makes the ridiculity vanish of a man with no credits, -other than being a B-film actor with a mediocre IQ-, becoming president of the us. But tell me, what was wrong with the series of facts I summed up? |

Fact: Reagan was accidentally in office when a true leader like Gorbatsjow entered the circustent. Fact: It was Gorbatsjow bringing Glasnost and Perestrojka Fact: It was Gorbatsjow who caused things to happen. Reagan-fans tend to place the emphasis on Reagan but please, gimme a break Gorbatsjow was the only one capable of setting things in motion. Fact: Reagan started serious overspending to please the campaign supporting industries (Star Wars). Fact: simultaneously: large tax reduction that would (in his advisors dreams) would deminish the deficit. "Supply side economics", remember? AKA Voodoo economics. Fact: the remaining large deficit still exists and the rich became richer. Fact: The rep's won't raise taxes Fact/deduction: therefore the democrats wil have to raise taxes to lessen the risk of a totally bankrupted american economy. Fact: By devaluation of the dollar the whole world pays for the expensive evangelical risk-game of mr Bush. (excuse me for adding a biased term in the end of the last sentence) Regards, Len. |

We have our problems. Maybe we are the only superpower by default. Reagan spent for Star Wars, and Gorbachev was smart enough to know he was bankrupt as a country and had to accede to secondary status. Sort of like Europe at the present time. Basically bankrupt. You can not afford the cradle to grave socialism. In 20 years there will only be something like 2 working for everyone on pension. The French government recognizes this predicament, but trying to increase the amount of years that the workers have to work before retirement, is causing massive public workers strikes. How often does the transport unions call a strike? Look at the anti-immigrant bias. The killing of a publisher in your country by a Muslim. What are the after affects? You are a morally bankrupt region in look what you let go on in Serbia / Albania. My mom is 90 years old. Twice in her lifetime, your region has let despots involve the world in massive wars. And you call yourself superior? While the UN sanctions on Iraq were in force, which countries were selling goods under the table, including chemical warfare components? Seems as it was mostly Europe. England still has an official church. We have Christians wanting freedom to celebrate their religion publicly. Same as the Muslims, Jews, etc do. Great thing about a representative republic. we get to vote for most of the rule us. |
