I did OK this week, but it was really Maggie Thatcher this morning that broke it loose for me. And the image of Gorbachev with his hand reaching out to the casket.
Ronnie and Maggie. Together they saved tens of millions of lives and many of them will never know what was done on their behalf.
Ms Thatcher was awesome...
Gorbachev reaching out tore muh heart out...
the great crusade continues...
Good Night Gentlemen.
Yes, both paid tribute to a man they respected and admired.
I was surprised when they showed the video of Margaret Thatcher's speech. I thought it was just going to be in audio. The most astounding part was when the video, in which she talked about President Reagan standing up against the Evil Empire, but knowing that there must be someone in the system who could help change things, was over, the camera panned to her, and who is sitting next to her but GORBY! He leaned over and gave her a little pat on the shoulder!
Just damn!
