and most of all his increasing government spending to record levels.

I know you’re an ignorant lib, but really, this is 1st grade stuff…CONGRESS writes the budgets, not the president, and the congresses who wrote all that spending into law were DEMOCRATS. All Reagan can do is veto them, and he often did.

Please take remedial civics.

You might recall that Reagan’s response to, say, a terrorist attack in Germany was met not with criminal charges but with some well placed bombs delivered by the Air Force.

Another important measure we have developed in our overall strategy is applying the rule of law to terrorists. Terrorists are criminals. They commit criminal actions like murder, kidnapping, and arson, and countries have laws to punish criminals. So a major element of our strategy has been to delegitimize terrorists, to get society to see them for what they are — criminals — and to use democracy’s most potent tool, the rule of law against them.

Wow, wow, wow. Charging terrorists in courts? What a wimp, huh? There was also that security-compromising convention against torture he signed that stated there are no extraordinary circumstances to justify the practice. Talk about snuggling up with the enemy!

Really? You mean like this failure? Note the crater just after 1937, that’s where the new Conservative Coalition managed to get portions of the New Deal repealed. Also note a very similar pattern in the unemployment rate, and in real GDP.

Also note that FDR won in 1936, after four years of ‘failed’ economic policy. Did he rig the vote? Use the army to mount a coup? No, he won fairly and extremely convincingly because the people liked his economic policies because they could see they were working.

I know you hater government interference, but it would probably help your case if you didn’t lie about it.

Whats with all the hot Republicans all of a sudden? Shock, Rubio, Brown, Duffy and now Kinzinger.

It’s rather quite distracting!

And Happy Birthday Ronnie! Yes, you are the greatest pres of the 20th century. Ronald Reagan would not have made the American people dependent on a low-return, government-run ponzi scheme for their retirement. He would not have rounded up the Japanese. The Depression would not have lasted anywhere near as long ahd the government gotten out of the way of the American people instead of trying to control them, he would never have instituted the command and control policies that FDR did, and he would not have tried to pack the courts…but then again, after the Great War, the country was very reluctant to involve itself in the affairs of others, and Regan would have been very unlikely to countenance standing idly by as Hitler marched across Europe, so one must wonder if he would have even been able to get elected at the time. One can only imagine how differently things would have turned out.

God bless Nancy!
