WARSAW (AP) — Police were searching on Wednesday for a vandal who damaged a bronze statue of Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul II in the Polish city of Gdansk by cutting off one arm of the former U.S. president and stealing it.
Puzzling generally, but mildly interesting. This bit further in the article though....mesmerizing:
On July 17, 2007, Polish President Lech Kaczynski presented his nation's highest distinction, the Order of the White Eagle, to Nancy Reagan on behalf of her late husband.
I have zero chance of determining if any of that is real or is from the plot of Animal Crossing game. Also, do you have to be named Lech to be a politician over there?

I bet it was the left arm, because the left one is like a stranger.

Simpsons did it.
Yeah, it was the left arm. A complex political metaphor, or just luck of the draw?

Aren't the only real white eagles albinos?

Poland's been rockin' the eagle for as long as there's been a recognized nation of Poland. It's not as though they waited until 1939 to lift the concept.
Aside from the basic "cross" concept, the two awards don't look very similar.

It's not a conspirarcy. Lots of countries give out an award of the eagle. I have one. Its not uncommon.

Distinguished Service Medal has an eagle on it as well.

I have heard Kaolian is a part of that fringe group. That's probably where he learned to be so fascist.

Nothing truly scares me more than their girl faction that sell cookies.
Totally unrelated organizations, actually. Girl Scouts love Atheist lesbians.

Yes and no. We recently added our first openly black MP. He calls himself Godson too. Very not Polish. Very not Lech-like.
But to your point, after Walesa started talking about "integrating" PO-land and Germany, the benefits of being called Lech diminished somewhat. Even Lech beer recorded lost sales. And it is not a complete ****. Naturally, not completely unlike most people, I base my opinion on absolutely nothing other than vague presumption.
Your soul was made of fists.

I know, it's just sort of funny to see the award list. Reagan appears to have been the second US president honoured too. It's just that heroes in other countries seem to make strange bedfellows.
