I guess I should have put a source on this one....whoop's

Charlie Wilson Texas hero...peace

Most people do not know the critical role that Charlie Wilson played in defeating the Russian invasion forces.

Even after the Russians left Afghanistan, Charlie Wilson consistently fought to aid the Afghan people and to prevent the Tali-ban from taking over.

If anyone asked me to prove that one man can make a difference, I would tell them about Charlie Wilson.

He was a womanizer, a drunk, and had too many faults to list, but he shall forever remain, an American Hero.

Good Luck Charlie,

This is a bad omen I think.

I mean, Wilson dies the day before this Iran thing. Very symbolic if Iran actually pulls a real rabbit from its hat.

RIP at any rate Mr. Wilson.
