The 'Wisdom' of Reagan

[☭proletarian☭]

Why do you refuse to answer the question? Which of his contradictory positions do you applaud?

I'm NOT refusing anything...MY POSTS speak.

I cannot help if the density of your SKULL prohibits you seeing it...

 

[blu]

many of the quotes in the OP seem silly now because they are based on science of his time. are you going to dismiss scientists throughout history because their theories were later proven wrong using technology unavailable during his/her time? there is stuff you can bash Reagen on, but doing it based on his understanding of science (which was in line with the thinking of his time) is pretty lame.

Reagan TOLD THE TRUTH about who he was and WHERE he stood. Obama LIED and it reflects in Obama's POLLS.

"I favor the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and it must be enforced at the point of a bayonet, if necessary."
--Ronald Reagan, Los Angeles Times, October 20, 1965

"I would have voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964."
--Ronald Reagan, Los Angeles Times, June 17, 1966

" Once you have mastered sincerity. . .you've got it made."

And REAGAN was correct. And IN his defying of it? WE see the results of IT to this day, and it remains strongly with us with the BREAKDOWN of the Black Family whom have come to DEPEND upon Government and HANDOUTS more than they do their own strengths AS Americans in their own right.

I applaud Reagan for his stance.

do you even know what the civil rights act was about?

You may again? EXIT the discussion. *YOU* cannot spell his name correctly.

of course, and IF you wanna PUSH IT farther? GO BACK to the Time of the Lincoln asassination, and the Resistance -OF- Democrats, and their treatment of BLACKS that resulted IN the KKK?

Yep Folks...the KKK was a manufactured resonse of DEMOCRATS of the time...

"I'll take WHOM were the 'RADICAL REPUBLICANS' of the latter 1860's for $1000 Alex..."to prove my point...

Stay on topic, lets talk about Ronnie and his thoughts on the civil rights issues since this thread is about him.

When you say you think he is the greatest president ever, remember what he said about this and so many other things.

It says a lot about republicans. It really does.

It was ONLY because it WAS NEVER NEEDED...but don't let that desuade you any. YOU read more into it than need be Zona.

But then you DemocRATS succeed in keeping them ON the plantation anyway, and were the catalylst for the breakup OF the BLACK family, and others through Government imposed slavery.

you are turning this around from RR saying he would have voted against it, to blacks being treated badly by dems.

Wow. My neck hurts from turning around so fast. nice try.

Go Obama. God bless America. We won last November and certain people really are starting to lose it. The more they post, the sillier they look.

Thank God Reagan and his type are no where near the white house.

Yup, Reagan was quite the kidder. One can only imagine the backlash if Obama had said some of those things.

 

[MaggieMae]

Whattya THINK it means? Reagan was STRONG in his TRUST and admiration of the people to do the right thing. They answered him resoundingly.

Because he won the vote?

Then the same goes for Obama

Reagan TOLD THE TRUTH about who he was and WHERE he stood. Obama LIED and it reflects in Obama's POLLS.

OH, well that certainly clarifies things.

 

[MaggieMae]

I concur with the premise of your statement and NOT that of the OP...whom is sorely mistaken. Reagan told us who he was early on which is why I posted the video of his address in 1964.

Just like Obama told us who he is early on at the 2004 Democratic convention.

And he lied. Just like he lied during the campaign, promising to be a moderate.
btw, where are his school transcripts? How did get all the money he has?
Reagan had a 30 year history in public life. There were no secrets, nor did he change much. Go look at speeches from the 1960s and compare those with what he said 20 years later. Not much change.
Obama's positions change every day.

And i saw a copy of Reagan's birth certificate, his high school transcripts and his bank statements. You see, we ask this of every president as of 2008.

oh and dont forget, take a look at my sig.
