"end the cold war" no a little war in Afghanistan bled the soviets dry just like it's now doing to another stupid super power. Reagan's term also started the norm of using social security to cook the books. That class act also cut college funding, student loans and grants. Only the rich deserved an education.

"It took time for Reaganomics to work, but it did." are you kidding? Don't you remember employment drying up in 1989?

Hmmm, when comparing administrations and scandals, does Oliver North = Scooter Libby?

For all of you to say that RR was a bad president is laughable. He had nothing to do with the ending of the cold war huh? The USSR was trying so hard to keep up our military and its communist/socialist economy it couldn't keep up with free market. And then it bled itself dry through our covert actions in Afgan. Your freinds Carter and Clinton would have never allowed that to have happened because they would have been scared to death of bad press. They would rather hide under there desks calling for talks or playing pin the cigar on/in the intern. Sadly, niether will our next Dem nom. RR attempted to role back your beloved social programs that reward the lazy and penalize the hard working. How dare he tell people to work for what they get and stop blaming others for their problems. He attempted to end the ridiculus tax code that tells most of the people to pay nothing and get handouts while others foot the bill. What happened to ask not what your country can do for you. The party seems to be fit more for those who ask how much their country can give them for free. Lets go back to the Carter age. Stand for nothing, run from everything. Problems are dealt with a call for talks and giving in to all demand. Then when that doesnt work.....maybe we were not nice enough.....give some more. We are on our way there with Barrack. How exciting. One of those guys who says something different every time the audiance changes. The love of no personal accountablity, big government, high taxes and more social programs to take from the hardworking and give to the lazy. The good times are here again.........Maybe I should get on wellfare.

"RR knew the average married military member was living quite a bit below the poverty level."
...along with millions of new poor people after his eight years were up, not to mention the tens of thousands of metally ill people he dumped out into the streets.
Fish on...
Todd Actually, Reaganomics is what set us up for a healthy, growing economy. Nixon and Carter are the ones who "created" the millions living in poverty with rampant inflation. It took time for Reaganomics to work, but it did. The mentally ill should never have been locked up in the first place, unless they were criminals. They should have been given treatment in the community. There is something seriously wrong with the liberal agenda when they think locking up sick people is good for us, but keeping criminals locked up is bad. Might want to do a little more research on it, because most mental health professionals do NOT think locking people up is good for them, or their families. And it should NOT be the job of the federal government to run internment camps for lazy communities who don't want to deal with their problem people. Wow. I mean really. Wow. You have yourself convinced of that, don't you? I'm speechless. And all this time I thought that bright red hue on your lips was makeup, not Kool-aid.

What happened to ask not what your country can do for you. Sorry docspud, but that was JFK - he was a democrat.

"It took time for Reaganomics to work, but it did." are you kidding? Don't you remember employment drying up in 1989? Don't YOU remember inflation that caused it? I sure as hell do. Inflation is directly tied to government deficit. Economics 101. Reagan created a HUGE deficit through MASSIVE military spending. Therefore, Reagan created the inflation which ruined the economy. Simple logic, but I guess there's no point if your head's up your ass. It's like trying to teach the deaf to dance.

Mikespike, If you read it you would realize I said what happened to the party of....Yes JFK. And I wonder how we got to Carter/Obama since then. How we got to the point of a party standing for what it does now.

Irie, i have taken many economics classes and it is not directly linked. In fact I have a book right here in my office for those days and I looking it up, missed that passage. But if it helps your arguement, stand by it.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

The love of no personal accountablity, big government, Yeah? Where are the "missing" billions in Iraq? Where's the f'n ACCOUNTABLILTY? Who was fired for the "faulty intelligence" that led us into Iraq? Where's the ACCOUNTABILITY? Did you miss the part where Reagan INCREASED the size of the Federal Govt.......just like GWB did ONCE AGAIN? Sounds like BIG GOVERNMENT to me. And you goats who think the cold war is over may want to check again. Same game, a couple different players, and THIS time it's the "war on terra". Still costing us billions, though. Funny how that wroks. What boogie man is everyone going to be afraid of next time, so we can ignore what a p!ss poor job Republicans and Democrats do?

How we got to the point of a party standing for what it does now. I see it now - misread it the first time. Sadly, neither party stands for anything except greed anymore.

Agreed one hundred percent Dan S but it is the lesser of two evils for me. Bush was not a good republican and spent way more than he should have. Seems to be the way our country works these days....Those in power just take and take and take. Spend for there own and do no good. I dont have my head in the sand about it. The fear mongering is B.S. as well. But again, lesser(hopefully) of the two evils. And with the differences in Obama and McCain it is clear enough who I agree with. Will McCain do what he says.....They never do but the fear of Obama actually do half he says causes me to back McCain.

but it is the lesser of two evils for me That's the problem, doc. It's been that way as long as I can remember. There has to be a way to put an end to that. 300 million Americans, and the best two we can run are McCain and Obama? Reminds of the last trip on the merry-go-round with GWB and Kerry......or GWB and Gore. Can we NOT get good candidates on the ballot?

Create spending limits on campaigns, a government fund to supply ordinary citizens matching funds for a run at the presidency, and absolutely no contributions from corporate entities. Oh, I guess that would make things a little too fair for some people.
