Good to hear from a legitimate Peace Prize winner

Courage. That is what I always think when I see this man (not man-child, like the current occupant of the White House). Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher and Pope John-Paul II showed fortitude against the international communist system, but they were in the West. They didn't have to worry about them or their family's being written out of existence. That cannot be said of Lech Wałęsa. He led a legitimate union movement against an oppressive regime and was instrumental in seeing communism collapse in Europe in 1991.

Back before the Nobel Peace Prize became a joke, the Nobel Committee honored a real peace activist for leading a country to a better way. Since then they have honored a the last great leader of the Soviet Union (Gorbachev, 1990), a terrorist (Yasser Arafat, 1994), a failure as a deliberate insult to the then sitting president (Jimmy Carter, 2003), a snake oil salesman (ALGORE, 2007) and a man-child completely unqualified to run a cash register, much less the only superpower in the world (B Hussein Obama, 2009). Millions are free and better off thanks to the works of the previously listed President of the US, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and Pope, but for some reason their efforts are not acknowledged by the committee. I would wonder why, but I think we all know the answer.

Leadership is like a vacuum in nature. It is abhorred. Wałęsa was someone who led a movement and a nation to a better way. In this short interview he is very critical of B Hussein Obama and his not taking the reigns of leadership. I would cut the man-child a bit of slack, he has no concept of the term. He's just a street thug with better cloths. But I'm drawn to Wałęsa's statement "I managed to destroy a bad system..." Gee, you mean things aren't set in stone, you can change a bad system (e.g. Obamacare). What a concept. But it requires something missing in this right now on the national stage called leadership. Hopefully American will find a Wałęsa soon. We need him.

Here is the interview video:
