#3 Going back to 30 minutes away from nuclear annhilation at all times? No thanks, I'll gladly take today's state of affairs.

Not surprised at the sentiment on the far left, though.

"When Communist U.S.S.R. was a superpower, the world was better off."

#7 Gimme back the old Evil Empire--at least they controlled the Islamonutz within their borders

Too bad they also spent tens of billions of dollars fomenting and organizing Communist guerrillas around the world. I'll take Islamic terrorists over the threat of thousands of Soviet nukes any day of the week.
