Ah, the old days
Date: 2008-11-08 02:45 am (UTC)relying on the states they do, demonstrate that they are Communists at
heart?" Of course they are. SALT I: Republican. SALT II: Republican.
Ending the grain embargo on the SU: Republican. Who opened relations with
Red China? Nixon, a *Republican*. Who folded on the South Vietnamese?
Nixon and Ford, both, you guessed it, Republicans. Notice how when the Union
of Soviet Socialist Republics (and there's that R word again) collapsed,
the Republicans immediately bungled the next election. Loss of necessary
guidence from their Red overlords? Almost certainly.
