You brought tears to my eyes. I cry not only mourning the passage of President Ronald Reagan, I mourn the passing of the last, best opportunity which he gave us. How quickly we destroyed the fruits of his vision and labor. How stupidly we rejoiced the set back of Commnunism and the Soviet Empire as the thousand year peace, and, instead of redoubling our efforts to secure the peace and punish the despots, declared premature victory, pocketed our peace dividend and paved the way to utter disaster. I grieve, I mourn and I simmer with anger. But I accept that we deserve what now is almost inevitable. God help us and God Bless Ronald Reagan. May he rest in peace and may his spirit of goodness steer us through the approaching storm. Amen.

I wouldn't change, or disagree with, a word of your sentiments. Informed, intelligent-based eloquence. Thank you.
