Hows your Russian language skills?

Not as good as my Spanish

Your kind of forgetting that whole bringing down the iron curtain thing he did in your rant.

Yes, I forgot to acknowledge Mikhail Gorbachev, the General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, who facilitated the peaceful transition of the Warsaw Pact countries to western-style pluralist democracies and market-based economies by indicating that Russia wouldn't intervene.

LOL, You can try to rewrite history here on speakup and I know it sticks in your craw for some reason but history will remember Reagen as the man who pulled down the Iron curtain and Reagen will be seen by history as one of the better presidents, just as History will remember the Bush and Obama yrs as some of the worst ever and view them as two of the most incompetent.

The Clinton years despite the obsession with his penis when he was president are looking better and better in the rear view mirror.

History doesn't try to blame the guy before you. That is a new modern "Progressive" way of thinking. History focuses on what was accomplished while you where the man, not on how much you blamed the other guy yrs later.

[SAAR]

Is not the Congress supposed to act as a check and balance to the President? So if a President is blamed and/or given credit should not the Congress be held accountable as well?

You tell me who was speaker during any of the last 5 or 6 presidents time?

I can remember one, Tip O'niel.

For better or worse the president is the one who gets the blame or praise from history for what was accomplished or not accomplished during his presidency just like a qb on a football team.

Pelosi isnt fair, to recent, but Gingrich I should have said as well, he was one to remember for sure.

But honestly do you think 50 yrs from now anyone that isn't a history major will remember any of them?
