Black Tie International Magazine Another Successful Evening
Excerpt from the New York Post, Page 6, Sunday April 30 TH 2006
RAVES FOR LECH'S ROASTING OF THE REDS The Reds were on the run at the Metropolitan Club when Lech Walesa addressed members of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation the other night. The former president of Poland drew cheers when he said, "We encouraged (Mikhail) Gorbachev to try to reform Soviet Communism. We were certain that if he pulled one brick out, the structure would collapse. "The Communists were like radishes - red on the outside." The charismatic Nobel Peace Prize winner, speaking in Polish, remembered that when Pope John 11 first visited Poland, "even the commissars and secret police were making the Sign of the Cross. They didn't know the proper wording, so they just counted, One, two, three, four..." The foundation is raising $750,000 to build a monument in Washington to the 100 million victims of Communism and hopes to break ground this summer.
