Former Texas Rep. Charlie Wilson Dies at 76

I know I know, it gets silly trying to follow the breaking news guidelines! Pfft the thought that a mere glance at the title did not alert me to the fact this was not something conforming to it. Shame on me, you of course are Hercule Peort!:roll:

Ha ha, if you are Poirot, how did you miss the whole title rule, mon ami?:confused:
 
I think everyone will concede that the Soviet Union was falling before Reagan came into office, and it was just a matter of time before they collapsed.

Reagan, and Wilson both did a lot to hurt the Soviets even more. In regards to what Wilson did, the Soviets were winning in Afghanistan until we sent our Stinger Missiles and other equipment over. After that, they were flat out being slaughtered. While that couldn't have caused the collapse of the Soviet Union in and of itself, it was a big kick in the pants, and IMO made them collapse up to half a decade then they might have otherwise.




Cuba and N. Korea are also falling apart...... still even. :ssst:
