They didn't call him the Great Communicator for nothing, Douger. Course, they also called Hitler something like that.

"....[T]he idea that a little intellectual elite in a far distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves....." Spoken whilst he himself was the president! It's genius...demonizing the very government that YOU yourself run!

Yea, well, t'aint as if he didn't say it whilst in office, DiveCon. "Government is bad, government is bad, government is bad"...it was a fucking drum beat with him.

Yet the guy swelled the size of government and gave us a crippling deficit. He was a ginormous case of "watch what I say, not what I do."

I'm aware of the words, Maddie. I'm also aware of their meaning. I'm actually a strong believer in them. If only you could say likewise.

Ronald Reagan raised taxes, grew government, tripled the national debt, withdrew the military after a confrontation with jihadists, allowed the sale of high tech arms to terrorists, in order to illegally support terrorists in Central America.

This is the hero of the GOP, folks.

Ronald Reagan - The greatest candidate for President this country ever voted for.

He was a great candidate, he was a so so president.

64? He had changed to republican by then?
when did he marry Nancy and pulled a Kerry? Or was that a McCain? Marrying into money.
