A potem się lidzie dziwili że Brzeziński (Zbigniew) nie rwał się robić
za tłumacza na wysokim szczeblu.

IMHO Jimmy Carter prezydent zgrzytających "detali" na tle dobrego obrazu
ogólnego.  Czy "detale" przekreśliły całokształt (prezydentury)
każdy ocenia sam dla siebie.

O świeżo zmarłych nie mówi się trochę źle
(ja się ograniczam do "zabawnawej anegdotki").
Prosty to jest zwój drutu w kieszeni.
