"Glick tried to assert that the Soviet-backed regime in Kabul during the 1980's was a "democratically-elected" government."

Thank you. I counldn't remember the time frames and wonderer if was referencing something that might be true or was misrepresenting the actual situation. (OK, considering who it was I was 99% sure he was lying, but thanks for removing the 1% of doubt.)

His father must truly be proud. Poor man. Better to be dead than to know your child is an America-hating enemy sympathizer.

As a father myself, this is what I found very heartbreaking about that interview. The guy's father was murdered by barbarians acting out of hatred for this country and our people and the son is blaming his country and its President for it. By so doing he dishonored himself and his father's memory, and of course couldn't see it.

Just goes to show you the difference in people. My father died back in 1984 and seldom a day goes by that I don't think of him and feel the desire to be the best person I can be in large part to honor his memory and example of raising his progeny to be honest and productive persons. My Dad was the best and most honest and hard-working man I've known and if he died a tragic and untimely death I know he would not want me to use that to make a cheap and dishonorable political statement. To do so would be to sully his memory in the most disrespectful manner imaginable.
