Unable to accept the responsibility of 20 years of failure. they deny their guilt. The Democratic left has been wrong about communism. Their actions made it easier for the Communist dictatorship to thrive in Vietnam. They have accepted Communist massacres in Cambodia. They ignore Communist colonies imposed on Angola and Mozambique. They condone Communist savagery imposed on Ethiopia. And now they facilitate the current Communist regime in Nicaragua. The results of their policies are refugees from Southeast Asia. Vietnamese and Cuban boat people. the desperate appeals of freedom fighters. the living testimony of Solzhenitsyn. Shcharansky. and Sakharov. and the cries of refuseniks and dissidents throughout the Soviet Empire.
