'Charlie Wilson and Ronald Reagan's War'

That's the title of a piece at Worldnetdaily about the Afghan war against the Soviets. I saw the film, Charlie Wilson's War tonight for the first time and of course started researching to separate facts from Hollywood fiction. I found this piece authored by Dr. Jack Wheeler.

The moral lesson of the movie should be a very sobering one for the Democratic Party. Charlie Wilson was proudly and unashamedly a pro-American, anti-communist Democrat. His heroism should be a deep embarrassment to the party of Pelosi Galore and Lost Harry Reid, the party who apologizes for America's existence and has neither the spine nor will to defend her.

The Democratic Party – indeed, America – needs more Charlie Wilsons. I will always have the greatest respect for what he did for our country, and I will always treasure his friendship.

You can also read the piece and see the pictures that are missing at Jack Wheeler's web site.
