Russian President Medvedev Should Come Up With Smart Ideas Similar To Those Of Ex-Soviet Dictator Mikhail Gorbachev
By: Jordan C. Fan, Prophet of Environment.
The following are some extremely intelligent ideas dreamed up by Ex-Soviet Dictator Mikhail Gorbachev which should also be implemented by Medvedev:
(1) "Tear down that (Berlin) Wall!" so that Russian tanks could roll into West Berlin.
(2) Make sure his name sake Michael Jackson could receive address in Russia so that Mikhail can regain his power and live in that address.
(3) Put Boris Yeltsin on top of his military tanks thinking that could make (Bor)is Yelt(sin) confessed to his (sin)s and a(bor)t his Revolution.
(4) Invited Osama bin Laden to his Opium smoking party in Afghanistan because he thought whoever has a name starting with an "O" could increase his opium production there.
(5) Invited Barack Obama to swim with him at his Black Sea resort so that no one could see or rescue Obama when he was drowning.
(6) Didn't believe in the possible success of Reaganomic because Gorbachev thought Reagan was just acting.
(7) Tatooed his own forehead with the map of the Philippines Islands thinking that could make that nation unite with the Soviet Union.
(8) Gorbachev thought China were only cups and dishes for drinking and eating. He was perfectly comfortable when China was rising and even enjoyed it thinking it was an act in the "Mary Poppins" movie.
(9) Supported Soviet boycott of the Los Angeles Olympic anticipating earthquakes would destroy California. It would certainly save him money by not using nuclear missiles.
(10) Replace Russian Black Market with his own "Free Market" to put African-American spy network in the Soviet Union out of business. Or is it really a "Flea Market"?
(11) Endorsed the SALT Treaty thinking it was just a requisition for condiments. As a result all his nuclear missiles were destroyed.
(12) He released nuclear radiation from the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant to kill off pests roaming in the surrounding cities. Too high a dose of radiation have caused increase mutations to those pests. Their bodies have increased 1000 times in size. As a result, local residents were all being devoured by giant cock roaches and Mikhail Mouse.

Walls
So the writer thinks that the wall on Israel’s border to keep out suicide bombers (which has been unequivocally successful) and the "wall" (it's actually more of a fence) protecting our border from illegal immigrants coming from Mexico (another success whereever they've put it up) are no different than the Berlin Wall?
How can such asinine ruminations be acceptable in a major paper? It's like comparing a seatbelt to a straightjacket or a helmet to an iron maiden, a condom to an enema.
And then the author, apparently completely blinded by his own self-righteousness, aborts from history Ronald Reagan and US policy as the root cause of the Soviet Unions demise and instead gives the accolades the author’s pin-up idol, the dour, witless and cowardly Gorbachev. This nimrod doesn’t even for posterity sake mention the most memorable speech about the Berlin Wall the dramatic “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!” And the crowd roared!
Pitiful and ignorant- no one in their right mind should by this revisionist fiction masking itself as legitimate history.
Walls
What a lovely article to illustrate the irrepressible nature of the human spirit, individually and collectively. Walls have been built from prehistoric times to the present to either keep people in or out but any such structures, even symbolically, that do not contend with man's desire to actualize himself, have and will fail.
