RWE; Back during that 91 coup attempt, in Moscow I saw Boris Yeltsin tear down the hammer and sickle flag.

I also saw Mayor Art Agnos raise that same flag on the steps of San Francisco City Hall to say “welcome back” to his Uncle Gorby when the coup failed.

My comment then was “the foreign adventurism is going great but the homefront is lagging behined”. Today? Same difference.
