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!
And Gorby now runs a leftist think tank in California, and is worth millions of despicable American dollars. Strange that the last (soviet) commie should end up on easy street, rather than dangling from a rope. But only in America, where the left still worships communism.
