Gorby defeated communism and was much braver than Reagan. He risked his life to end communism.

The Sean Hannity types always say "Reagan ended communism". Sure he helped, by overspending them in the arms race when they were having a severe recession, but those who had just as much or more influence than Reagan were Gorby, the Pope, Lech Walensa, John Lennon (hippies and rock n' roll) and the anti-nuclear movement in Europe. Also, to be honest we have to give credit to the Osama Mujeheddin in Afghanistan.

It's a multi-facted world full of ironies, huh?
