I pointed out that it wasn't Reagan who was on watch when The Berlin Wall
fell - he had already been relieved of duty. It was Bush's watch that saw
The Berlin Wall fall.
If Homie had written [the wall] came down as a result of 8 years of pressure
applied by the hated Reagan administration ....bla, bla, bla, then I
wouldn't have had issue with his statement.
As far as my point not making sense, you are wrong. It made perfect sense.
Your example makes sense also - it just isn't applicable to the replay I
posted to Homie's JFK message.

Your point doesn't make sense. Nixon was on station when Apollo 11 landed
on
the moon, but it is safe to "march it up" to Kennedy.
