Long neglected brain cells tell me that my Polish grandmother and parents would include a prayer in their very frequent praying for the end of communism in the Soviet Union and Poland. My parents got to see the fall of communism in Poland a few years before my father died.....and my mother got to visit the country a year before she died.

For grins I did a search on "Why Lincoln was a bad president". Apparently lots of people still think so, but that hasn't stopped him from being ranked right up there as one of our best presidents.
