Edit: Link is on circumsatances of his death (heart failure) and a few life achievements, with several references to the movie Charlie Wilson’s War.

It’s a rare instance where the real guy was cooler than the actor.

Yet another supporter of right-wing totalitarian movements in Latin American and the Middle East dies and all we will remember and celebrate him for is being a suave womanizer and anti-soviet hero portrayed by the academy award winning actor Tom Hanks.

Well.
