Lech-ture Time!

I attended the “Lech Walesa Day” celebration on September 29th, Walesa’s birthday. And in anticipation of the Trump administration engaging in allowing Poland to enter the United States “visa waiver” program, when this was announced as part of the day’s events, well Polish citizens celebrated that news by singing Elton John’s “Madman Across the Water”. In a nutshell what the rest of the human civilization thinks about our Commander-in-Thief! I wish we had a “Lech” for American Democracy’s sake. Mitt Romney was right-on, Trump got the White House and all we got was a lousy hat. Lech Walesa, in comparison to this Fucking Moron Donald Trump. This Polish elder statesman, pro-democracy activist and union organizer served as the first democratically elected President of Poland, from 1990 to 1995. And on the honorable awards ceremony stage: In 1983, Lech was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize and beyond that, he has received more than 30 state decorations and more than 50 awards from 30 countries, including Order of the Bath (UK), Order of Merit (Germany), Legion of Honour (France) and European Human Rights Prize. Gdańsk International Airport is officially renamed Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport and a college hall at Northeastern Illinois University, six streets and five schools in Canada, France, Sweden and Poland also were named after Lech Wałęsa. Named as Man of the Year by Time magazine and 14 other newspapers and magazines, Lech was awarded with over 45 honorary doctorates by universities around the world, including Harvard University and Sorbonne - mind you nothing from Trump University!  He was named an honorary karate black belt by International Traditional Karate Federation. Wałęsa is also an honorary citizen of more than 30 cities including London, Buffalo and Turin.

In the United States, Wałęsa was the first recipient of the Liberty Medal, in 1989. That year he also received the Presidential Medal of Freedom and became the first non-head-of-state to address a joint meeting of the United States Congress. Wałęsa symbolically represented Europe by carrying the Olympic flag at the opening ceremony of the 2002 Winter Olympics, something Trump isn’t even fit to do unless his fat ass was carried in a golf cart. In 1993, the heraldic authority of the Kingdom of Sweden assigned Wałęsa a personal coat of arms on the occasion of his admittance into the Royal Order of the Seraphim.

Lech Walesa in History

About the honorable awards that Donald Trump has received, Trump meets the Boogeyman from Vince McMahon and the WWE. And forget about naming an airport after this Moron, maybe a crater on the moon and when he decides to attend the dedication, maybe the fuel for the return flight will run short and an emergency landing in Russia will suit US fine!
