Peace through Begging

WORLD NET DAILY: If President Reagan's foreign policy with communist nations, Muslim dictatorships and other various evil empires like North Korea, Cuba, Iran, Libya, China and the old Soviet Union was characterized by the philosophy "Peace through strength," then surely it can be argued that Obama's foreign policy philosophy is "Peace through begging." >>> Ellis Washington | Saturday, March 7, 2009

Maggie and Ron: The Transatlantic ‘Love Affair’

THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH: Ronald Reagan's last official act as President of the United States on January 11, 1989 was to sign a letter of thanks and appreciation to Margaret Thatcher, then beginning her last two years in Downing Street. That letter marked the end of a great political partnership - one as important historically as the wartime alliance between Churchill and Roosevelt but arguably both warmer and more successful.

Reagan and Thatcher sincerely liked each other and shared almost identical political views. There was no fundamental gulf between them similar to Roosevelt's suspicion of a British Empire that Churchill had pledged not to dissolve.

Their joint policies led to a victory in the Cold War that was more complete and less morally uncomfortable than Yalta's division of Europe into a continent half-free and half-slave. When Soviet communism collapsed peacefully along with the Berlin Wall ten months after Reagan left office, his penpal was generously quick to give him credit: Reagan had won the Cold War, she said, "without firing a shot". Their names have been historically linked ever since. How Margaret Thatcher Went from 'Madam Prime Minister' to 'Dear Margaret' >>> By John O'Sullivan | April 13, 2008
