20 Years Ago Today - The Berlin Wall is torn down!--- COMMON CENTS BLOG: "20 Years Ago Today - The Berlin Wall is torn down! On this date November 9, 1989 the Berlin Wall fell! Long viewed as a symbol of the Cold War the Berlin Wall separated the free West Germany from the Communist East Germany..."
This morning on his radio show Huckabee Halftruth waxed eloquent over the greatness of the Raygun who apparently was solely responsible for the fall of Communism and the Wall. I've got news for everyone-- we, that is us, the U.S. and its allies, spent fifty years fighting communism, and the Cold War was not won during the term of one President. All those Americans who died in Korea and Vietnam did so because we were containing the Soviet Union, and the funding for those wars and the Cold War, came from the tax payers and was passed into law by primarily Democratic controlled Congresses, so no lectures on who was the greatest Cold Warrior-- the answer is those who fought in the hot wars.
