Not Ashamed Of My Country, But ‘Choom-Ba-Yah Diplomacy’ Makes Me Cringe

by Smitty Via The Tatler, the National Review: Administration officials told the Journal that Walesa is too “political.” A man who was arrested by Soviet officials for dissenting against the government for being “political” is being shunned by the United States of America for the same reason 30 years later.
