Ronald Reagan - Address to the Nation on Christmas and the Situation in Poland

[Endicottdude1]

Please God, send us another leader like President Reagan. I don't think I have ever even heard Mr. Obama utter the sacred name of Jesus. Is he ashamed of him or, does he even believe in him??  Screw his birth certificate...I want to see his baptismal certificate! I am sure he can have that forged too!

[lordkakao]

World urgently needs new,strong leaders like President Reagan or Prime minister Thatcher.

[CasonovaCorkClub]

One of the GREATEST AMERICANS in the history of our country!...God bless you, RONALD REAGAN!

[creddy]

I highly recommend everyone listen to this - sure seems this humble actor sure had a clear vision of how to lead the country and where his priorities lie.

[BorgCIO]

A real message from a real person, and something we should expect from our Presidents and our leaders! Remembering our roots of what made this country the greatest in the world. Our current leaders and maybe even the next ones running for the job don't hold a candle to this man. God Bless our country and we pray you grace us with a return to be the beacon of freedom and holders of peace around the world! Thank you troops for being there and protecting our way of life!

[usabratt]

the USA needs another Reagan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please God help us

[cableguy21629]

Obama doesn't even deserve to shine this mans shoes.

Mr Reagan we miss you. I look forward to shaking your hand when we meet in heaven

[doitlord]

what a wonderful man

[GolightlyMiller]

i miss him alot..boy i wish he was here how..

[Johncroce1]

He is what we need today, a President with brains & balls.

[Pavvel86]

Thank you Mr President. Poland needs president like you

[TrueOnly]

POLAND WILL NEVER FORGET!!!

[ThePalinPatriot]

**Heaven

[ThePalinPatriot]

God Bless the memory of this great man! Mr. President, I wasn't born yet when you were in office, but I wept along with the rest of the country when you passed away. You were truly an American gentelman. You cared deeply for your country and stood for what was right. As the holidays now approach I pray that God will raise up someone like you to stand for truth and fight the wrong. It is my goal to meet you, along with my Savior, in Heavan someday!

[ThePalinPatriot]

@keirdullea Why do you call him a liberal? How do YOU know that he's "burning" in hell?

[ProFreedomForAll]

The story of Poland, what happened to it during and after WWII, is largely unknown. Poland and the Polish people were enslaved, murdered, raped, and looted by both the Nazis and the Soviets. It is probably the greatest story of the last century that is largely unknown in the USA.. This speech and its timing was a critical first step in sending a signal to the Soviets that their games were over. God bless Ronald Reagan and the Polish and American people-,,,lovers of freedom.

[67nairb]

@WineBeerLover Sorry.

[artyfarty3]

why is every1 bashing "socialism" so much today ? it's "communism" that is evil ! Socialism gives you free heath care , free education , low taxes for the poor , equality for all .

"Capitalism" is just communism draped in a fake cloke of democracy . "Capitalism" makes only the strongest and the best survive ! Capitalism squashes the competition - just look at all the big conglomerate co-operations that rose out of U.S.A. today - are they good for the small business ?!

REAL DEMOCRACY NOW !!!

[ThePalinPatriot]

@artyfarty3 Obviously you know nothing about socialism, capitalism, and communism. Socialism and communism are close first cousins. Also, there is no such thing as "free". There is ALWAYS someone paying for it. Under socialism/communism the "free healthcare" is nothing more than death panels, as Gov. Palin so aptly named it. The "free education" is under gov't control and you are taught what they wanth you to hear. Come on, surely you're smarter than that!!

[artyfarty3]

@ThePalinPatriot the socialist ideas implemented in democracy is there help those who where unfortunate , unable or excluded from the benefits the rest of us have received - that includes disabled , mentally retarded , orphans , the jobless and any one else who is having problems "fitting in" for one reason or the other .

You take that away from democracy and your capitalism will soon look like Fascism - Capitalism does not share or believe in charity , it is greedy , selfish & oppressive.

[squarecracker]

@artyfarty3

Exactly. I do support socialism, but I can see that Capitalism and Communism are simply names for power crushing those without it. I feel that the goals of socialism can be accomplished through the free market. I find it funny that a labor union destroyed the Soviets, while this bullshit actor who oppressed unions here and took credit for the fall of Communism. Unions destroyed totalitarian soviets, and will destroy totalitarian capitalists like Ronnie. SOLIDARNOSC, SANDINISMO!

[xizdaqrian]

@squarecracker Maybe you quit school before you graduated, or maybe you're a child still, or perhaps you're just dumb. Socialism is Communism and they are both evil! "Totalitarian Capitalists" interesting... you talk like a komsomol. The only totalitarians are the socialists. You don't get to tell me where I can live, what kind of job I can have, or how much food I can buy. Ask any person who lived under the CCCP and ask how much they liked it. They didn't! God Bless AMERICA!

[squarecracker]

@xizdaqrian I disagree, and I would characterize your statements as grossly misinformed. Yes, CCCP was awful. But to say a better society is not possible is retarded. Reagan sold this country up the river with DEBT. He sold chemical weapons to Sadam Hussein. You have no natural right to the air, water, food, or even the land of this country, other than what you can buy from the banks that DO own it. Unfortunately, I don't think what I've said will sink in until it's too late. GO USA!

[FCBFUN94]

respect for president Ronald Reagan

greetings from Poland

[Just1c320]

"Communists read Marx and Lenin. Anti-Communists understand Marx and Lenin"

Ronald Reagan (R.I.P.)

[2200outlaw]

fuck america death to communism and decadent liberalism. from poland.. long glory to catholic holy monarchy. pozdrawiam

[67nairb]

The Soviet government as well as many from the American Left have compared Reagan to Hitler. Does this speech sound like something that would come from Hitler? Calling upon humantiarian aid Poland a country Hitler swore on destroying? If Reagan was like Hitler would there a menurah on the White House lawn? Reagan were like Hitler would he be commited to coming to Israel's aid as all POTUSs since Harry Truman? The Soviet Union was ruthless and tyranical, but the American Lefists were stupid.

[MaximusProteus]

@67nairb "the American Lefists were stupid" - they were, like Lenin called such people, USEFUL IDIOTS.

[67nairb]

@MaximusProteus You're sooooooo right!

[MaximusProteus]

Happy birthday. We`ll not forget you mr. President.

P.S. there must be finally some place in Warsaw honoring Ronal Reagan, we have already squares called after Wilson, Hoover, even Roosevelt... why not to commemorate an American President who did so much for Poland, Europe and the whole world ?!

[67nairb]

@MaximusProteus In Eastern Europe, Franklin Roosevelt is not revered by the people there. To many he is seen as a traitor who sold out Eastern Europe to Stalin's Russia at the Yalta Conference. It's Woodrow Wilson, Herbert Hoover, and Ronald Reagan who are seen as heroes to the opressed people of Eastern Europe; not FDR.

[MaximusProteus]

@67nairb I`m fully awared of that, but anyway there`re his streets in several towns of Poland, not in Warsaw (sorry for mistake), there`s also an alley and a square of Washington, but... nothing of Reagan and that`s a shame.

[67nairb]

@MaximusProteus There is a square in Warsaw named after George Washington?

[MaximusProteus]

@67nairb Well, not precisely a square, but "rondo", a kind of a big, round crossroads... and of course an alley of Washington.

[67nairb]

@MaximusProteus The Poles really liked George Washington. Great patriots like Kousziskou and Pulaski vollunteered to help Washington's Continental Armies in their war for independence against the British.

[sosenkowski]

Ronald Reagan - President who saved Poland. every Polish patriot should pray for his soul on the hundredth anniversary of his birth [*]

>>O Loving Father and Savior, forgive any wrongs that have been committed and welcome his beloved spirit into the warm embrace of your unending peace. Amen.<<

[GayUOPXBoy10]

What an eloquent speaker Reagan was... we need a president like this again! I am a proud Polish- American and I could only imagine what the people of Poland were going through at this time and it at that time of the year for Polonians, it is very important!!

[LedWilde]

If any of you haven't seen Reagan's farewell address in a while or never seen it, watch it right now! There's a full length version on YouTube. Let your kids watch it too.

[jcfan42]

FREE POLAND

[idesofmarchUNIAEA]

We are smarter than that, and we owe it to the generations that came before us, that shed their blood and sweat to make this nation. Listening to this video and what we have as a president today, brings the gray, the left has created for 50 years, into focus of black and white. listen to this video, and ask what America you want your kids and grandkids to grow up in. Pray we elect a leader,in two years that has the same American values you do, and the people who fought and died to give it to us.

[idesofmarchUNIAEA]

The world view of our president is antithetical to most of my generation who had relatives who sacrificed in war and in a tough economy.We need to find another "leader" like the one in this video. If not, Khrushchev will have been right, in that the communists will bury us.All republics that I have read about fail in about 200 years. We have managed longer. If we don't stop the socialist welfare state being constructed, we will also collapse.



[idesofmarchUNIAEA]

They are taught to idolize a murderer, Che Guevara, and despise George Washington.We have a president reared by a devout communist mentor, due to the absentee communist father.I thought my dad wasn't that great a dad as my cousins, but he tried to pass on life experiences from WWII and the depression.

Our president did not have the benefit of a father who passed on WWII experiences.

[idesofmarchUNIAEA]

When I watched this 30 years ago, I thought it was a good speech, and he said what a president should say.20 years old then, and 50 years old now, I see more clearly what his words meant.America has changed in 30 years. Our colleges and universities are filled with leftists, promoting socialism.Our kids have nothing to use as a benchmark, as they have been indoctrinated for 30 years.They are no longer taught to "think" or self monitor. Their minds change in time and do not question why.

[Tchernowizer]

Compare Reagan's eloquence and Obama's rap and you will understand who Obama is... To me the former is a symbol of freedom, The West, intelligence and patriotism. The latter symbolizes vanity, narcisism, stupidity and arrogance... I wanna ask all those who voted for muslim Obama: do you regret of being stupid, brainwashed idiots?

[VeteransAgainstKonop]

Does anybody have another link to this video, with subtitles in Polish ?

I would like to forward the video to a couple friends in Poland.

[tedatlas]

Thank you for posting this and part 2.

[mypombella]

I wish would had a President like this now. He made me proud to be an american. We miss you Mr. President!!

[jackass122676]

God Bless Ronald W Reagan and may he rest in Peace of the Lord

[Lysy2]

Man, this was a REAL PRESIDENT ! Not a bumbling f'n wimp we have now !

[furmountain21]

@Lysy2 Amen brother, amen.

[bigwhiteballs27]

@Lysy2

Or the corrupted Bush

[TheBeerNut1]

Ronald Reagan is revered in Poland. He was the best supporter of the Polish people's aspiration for freedom and Democracy in the 1980's. I will never forget his inspiring Christmas message on behalf of Poland and the Polish people who were subjected to the evil Soviet Communist system for some 35 years at the time. R.I.P. Ronnie !!! You did well.

[PolskaUrban]

Anti Communism, pro America

thats, what he was...

...always remembered in Poland

[BelmondoAlvaro]

damn. i played it to learn some foreign view on situation of 1981, but after 1 minute u must stop to say what a wagon of charisma this president had.

[Bielak999]

He was the only president of united states who really cares about Polish people and for that i can't say anymore then thank you.

[annem65]

Wow, comparing him to what we have now... :( Pray for this world

[chrisfry200]

I was young when Reagan was president. I used to think he was a complete idiot at the time. However, watching this clip & seeing how he devoted much of his Xmas speech to this issue has changed my opinion on him completely. 8 years later the world changed.

[Im4hm]

A true leader.

[doctilde]

Do something. Stand up. Join 912, join a tea party movement. Only with our own 'solidarity' can we bring back reason and restore the rights that our Constitution was meant to guarantee - those that have been diluted or ignored and that now teeter on the precipice of dissolution.

[CARDUELIS999]

I miss Reagan. Where is Obama's Christmas greeting? Where is his plea for the freedom of the Iranian people, when Reagan addressed the slavery of the Poles? Shame on Obama. Shame on him, while so many Iranians die in the streets.

[libertyplayground]

now we have the marxist in charge. great.

[nozzghoull]

Ah, refreshing to hear from a real, pro America, president.

Pay attention Barry, you might learn something other than liberal spewage and marxism.

God bless Reagan and the good will he left behind.

[hideoussink]

Notice how the entire address contains: "we" and "us" and "Americans".. while take any speech of Obama's and count all of the the "I's", "me's".

[marialula30]

Where are the presidents like Reagan.. God fearing who love America....

[jessfromla]

Obama is like a child and Satan is his father.. BO was unpredictable but now since we grew accustom to his stinking ass, he is so transparent he doesn't care anymore what the American people think!

[soonerwalt]

Please mr. obama pay attention, this is what a real Pro-American President thinks and acts.

[jukinj3]

Reagan could really give a good speech and no teleprompter.

[mbcq1]

I never listened to this when he was alive...wish I had! Merry Christmas!

[sixmilecross]

HOPE and CHANGE. This man delivered hope and change for tens of millions of citizens here and folks around the world.

Good luck Poland, good luck people of Iran. You are clearly on your own now.

[greeniem]

@kingVillien

Especially when he said he forgot he gave arms to terrorists LOL

He must be loving sucking cock in hell... LOL

[LCT29]

you're a fucking scumbag

[SillyGrandpa]

I get emotional when I recall Reagan's address back in December 1981, concerning Poland and the declaration of Marshall Law. Our family placed a candle in the window, in support of the Polish people.

[sirgregh]

Thank you Mr President. Poland remembers you! Pozdrawiam.

[2200outlaw]

@sirgregh poland wee remember that in the last 100 years you did nothing for poland but talking blah blah blah. pozdrowienia z polski

[FearlessConservative]

Great Video, I love seeing how he stood up for Poland and asserted America's Strength. He was a wonderful man!

[VascoPolonia]

No wonder that from all the American presidents Reagan is the most respected and remembered in Poland, for all he did for our freedom.

It also reminds me my father listening late at night to Radio Free Europe. Great and courageous speech.

[ConservativeVoiceUSA]

Great Video thanks for sharing 5 Stars

[funnystuff123d3]

LOL he says his family is "our" tenants. I have yet to hear BO say anything remotely close or as elegant. BO is too busy appeasing our enemies and appointing czars over us to care about us.
