Well...since Reagan was a Republican..
...and not a true Goldwater Republican (due to an out of control legislature and an understanding the the country actually does have a judeo-christian ethic)...Ross will have nothing nice to say in this thread.
Reagan's impact on this country cannot be understated. Even current Democrats recognize this.
Still, I don't expect alot of recognition of these facts from this crowd. Too busy trying to invent conspiricies.

Worse than Reagan, tied with Bush 1
And yes, he also was a master illusionist. America at present has no effective government because the People are too stupid, lazy, and venal to give a shit about their history. All government, Dem and Repo, is cast in the illusionist mold - thanks to Reagan and his damnable ilk.

We do?
Funny, that. I thought we elected a Labour government in 1997 (sheesh, only 7 years ago) which has maintained a decent economic record, a reasonable social justice record, and which has an irrational love of speed cameras.
You KEEP ELECTING fuckwits term in, term out; in fact, I'd go so far to say you've not had a president worthy of the name since Kennedy.

Johnson presided over civil rights
Nixon broke bread with china, Reagan assisted in the breakup of the USSR. Carter got the camp david accords going and yer right about the rest.

Damn the prohibition on political LRPDs. This one trancends politics, and deserves its rightful place... jb4

Well, we agree on this one thing:
Reagan's impact on this country cannot be understated. Even current Democrats recognize this. Quite right. Sorta like the impact of a Mohammed Ali uppercut on Sonny Liston's jaw... jb4
