another right wing lie that won't die:
Myth: Obama denied being natural born in debate with Alan Keyes
There has been a persistent rumor that during the 2005 Keyes/Obama Senate Race Keyes stated
You are not even a Natural born citizen to which Barack Obama replied: Thats OK, I am not running for president, I am only running for Senate.
The Campaign for Keyes has denied that this happened.
Charles,
Your instincts are right. That exchange never happened. It was the invention of somebody on the internet, one which seems to have sort of taken on a life of its own.
Thanks for your diligence in getting at the truth.

Yes we will just ignore that democrats lied repeatedly to Reagan, or that democrats soured the political scene...
Reagan lied to the nation Iran
Reagan testified under oath and couldn't remember crap, except where it came to making himself look good.

Reagan beat the Soviets?
Reagan was not a military leader. D'Oh!
Apparently Dante is too stupid, too ignorant, or trying very hard to forget the Cold War, as it went through Truman's "Containment," Ford's "Detente" and finally Reagan's "Spending 'em into hell!"
But SORRY! There are those of us who were born under and grew up during the Cold War.
We REMEMBER ROCKY AND BULLWINKLE! The old push of that cartoon was to make fun of the Cold War. Something that anyone who watches it now, and didn't live durng the Cold War will miss.
And if anyone would have told me (in the 60s) that I would see a day when the Soviet Union was not pointing missles at us, I would not have believed them.
REAGAN MADE THAT A REALITY.
You can protest (too much) otherwise, but your protests will fall on too well informed ears.
They are still pointing their missles at us~duh! Reagan did nothing but escalate the world arming itself for more war.
The GOP would cease to exist if they stopped lying.
Floridian here! I can confirm this. Pink slip rick screwed us all.
Oh yeah, did I mention that they purged the votes of blacks intentionally so they can win?
Thats what the Republican party/GOP has been up to here.
Reagan defeated the USSR and collapsed their empire, he left them no choice but to complete their takeover of the Democrat Party
The only point I'll argue here is that it was Reagan, or the US that caused the collapse of the USSR. The USSR collapsed because communism/socialism aren't economic viabilities. They stretched themselves so thin that they withdrew from Afghan because of bankruptcy and the inability to continue their ways.
Otherwise, the rest is true. Communists took over the democrats, but AI think it was happeneing back in the 40s and was completed by the 80s. Evidence shows now that most democrats are nothing short of socialist morons.
There is no resemblance of communism in the Democratic Party. This is where you right wing loons just prove yourselves to be right wing loons.
obama should run against Reagan, that will work.
Running against Bush has run out of steam.
Let us start with President Reagan's military defense toughness myth:
What a joke.
Sure...on the ultimate test of hawkdom -- the willingness to send U.S. troops into harm's way -- Reagan was no bird of prey. He launched exactly one land war, against Grenada, whose army totaled 600 men. It lasted two days. And his only air war -- the 1986 bombing of Libya -- was even briefer....
In fact, Reagan was terrified of war. He took office eager to vanquish Nicaragua's Sandinista government and its rebel allies in El Salvador, both of which were backed by Cuba and the Soviet Union. But at an early meeting, when Secretary of State Alexander Haig suggested that achieving this goal might require bombing Cuba, the suggestion "scared the shit out of Ronald Reagan," according to White House aide Michael Deaver. Haig was marginalized, then resigned, and Reagan never seriously considered sending U.S. troops south of the border, despite demands from conservative intellectuals like Norman Podhoretz and William F. Buckley. "Those sons of bitches won't be happy until we have 25,000 troops in Managua," Reagan told chief of staff Kenneth Duberstein near the end of his presidency, "and I'm not going to do it."

What?
facts are lies now?
You wouldn't know a fact if it hit you in the face!
And if anyone would have told me (in the 60s) that I would see a day when the Soviet Union was not pointing missles at us, I would not have believed them.
REAGAN MADE THAT A REALITY.
You would not have believed them, because you were always a fearful little twit. Some of us who lied through the cold war weren't as scared as the right wing fear mongers and the left wing scaredy cats.
And the Russians (formerly the USSR) still have missiles pointed at us.
See? You lie and you are stupid.
see any facts above?
Reagan instituted the JUST SAY NO policy. He expanded it to the idea that people should take responsibility for whether they start or avoid drug use.Nixon started the war on drugs, but Reagan greatly expanded it. Reagan is the one that decided that we did not have all those rights to privacy we so loved before he took office.
Of course, developing character is a real blight to some.
He also started three stikes which to me is unconstitutional and a waste of taxpayers monies. He believed in the police state which is what the USA is still working on and is almost there.

SEN Kennedys letter to Soviet Premier Yuri Andropov
Ted Kennedy and his Liberal Brethren were engaged in the larger, anti-American, Soviet-orchestrated world disarmament and peace movement. They viewed our support of NATO in facing down a menacing Soviet build-up Eastern Europe as a provocative move. To be generous toward their motives, I will only say that history has shown that they were fools at best. Reagan correctly saw the Soviets as a hollow system on the verge of collapse.
This authenticated letter [link], uncovered when the KGB files were opened after the fall of the Soviet Union expose Kennedys duplicity in dealing with the Soviets behind the scenes and without permission of the USG. The POTUS alone is charged with negotiating with foreign nations per the USC.
This letter was first uncovered by the London times. The blog entry is from 2006.
So when the Left and the Left Media idolize this man, let us remember this narcissistic deed as well as his savage treatment of Clarence Thomas, Robert Bork, Mary Jo Kopechne, and the millions of aborted babies who died during this mans 36 year legacy of supporting abortion.
His salvation is up to God. Say a prayer for mercy, but remember.
BTW: These same KGB files showed that the Liberal-darling liar and spy Alger Hiss was among many others, including a US Congressman, who were, indeed, communists working for the USSR.

Think Again: Ronald Reagan - By Peter Beinart | Foreign Policy
Reagan was a very good President mostly for reasons that run contrary to our image of him. While he did lower the top tax rates, which were too high at the time, he also raised taxes after that when he saw that the tax cuts went too far and were not increasing revenues. He also worked extremely well with the Dems in Congress, but that was in great part due to the fact that Tip O'Neil had the country's best interest at heart rather than trying to railroad the President as Boehner and the Republicans have done to Obama.
Yes we will just ignore that democrats lied repeatedly to Reagan, or that democrats soured the political scene... Will you guys run off when SS needs to be addressed? That is your history.......

Oh, because a liberal reinvents history, that makes it true!
Too bad there are too many of us, that remember those days, and it was LIBERALS who were terrified of war.
Every five minutes they were wringing their hands that Reagan would get us into a war.
Now you want to lie to people who were born after those times and tell them, it never happened???
Yeah, well keep trying!
Remember when Reagan made the joke in his Christmas Radio speech that he had just declared the Soviet Union illegal and the bombs start dropping in five minutes? Then he said, "Just kidding!"
I laughed my butt off. That sound like a man afraid of war?
The Democrats actually made an attack ad over it, claiming this proved Reagan was blood thirsty for war.
IT FAILED!
Go take your lies and SIT DOWN!
No one believes them except Obamabots who feed on lies, and people too young to remember Reagan AND MOST OF THEM DON'T VOTE ANYWAY!
I think you both are kind of missing the point. Reagan believed in walking with a big stick. If forced to use it then use it, but the idea was simply to use the big stick to prevent anyone from fucking with you so you didn't have to use it in the first place. Luckily it worked out well for Reagan. Had it been a different time, things might have been different.
"Things might have been different" is another way of saying, "but we could have been right!"
But, you weren't!
Get over it!
You wouldn't know a fact if it hit you in the face!
