What? No Gorbachev Statue?

Looks like the Poles haven't been listening to the LWM and lefty historians---they actually think Ronald Reagan won the Cold War when everybody who's anybody knows it was Mikhail Gorbachev:

Opponents of Poland's former communist regime reportedly want to pay a posthumous homage to US President Ronald Reagan by erecting his statue in the place of a Soviet-era monument.

In an open letter to the mayor of the southwestern city of Katowice, the former anti-regime activists said that the staunchly anti-communist Reagan had been a "symbol of liberty," the Polish news agency PAP reported.

As a result, they said, he deserved to become the centrepiece of the city's Freedom Square, replacing a monument to the Soviet troops who drove out the occupying Nazis in 1945.
They also said that they wanted the site to be rebaptised "Ronald Reagan Freedom Square."

But then, the Poles have been confounding the left at least since Lech Walesa and the Gdansk shipyard workers had the audacity to protest the "worker's paradise".

And don't get 'em started on that Pope they produced!
