Was that before or after Reagan betrayed his country and broke the law by selling arms to Iran?
You can't be that ignorant....can you?
1. Do you know there were hearings..a joint House-Senate committee investigation of the Iran-Contra affair
Who was convicted?
Names?
2. What was the public's view of the Liberal attempt to convict Reagan?
For your edification:
a. "The outcome of the constitutional struggle over the Iran-Contra matter would be decided in that exact way: by public judgment of the political clash in Washington. The joint House-Senate committee investigation of the Iran-Contra affairan investigation Democrats likened to Watergate and hoped would end with Reagans impeachmenttook a turn President Reagans critics had not expected when Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North appeared and delivered a devastatingly effective attack on liberals in Congress for their irresponsible meddling in foreign policy.
Public opinion decisively shifted in Reagans favor, and the liberal dream of driving another Republican president from office died quickly. In other words, the people judged, just as Locke said they should, and judged that Reagan had acted properly, if not necessarily wisely.

See....now you've got to go have your mouth washed out with soap....
Public opinion is what saved Reagan from getting the boot.
But he did break the law.
And he did betray his country.
The DoD budget has been cut under Obamination, so Romney wants to restore it to a decent level.
Really? When did that happen?
Wingnuts need a nuclear boogeyman. First it was North Korea, and now it's Iran. A country smart enough build nuclear weapons is smart enough not to use them (ignore USA). They understand the horrific consequences of first use.
This must be upsetting for code pink dykes and social welfare dependents..........
Of course, you're oblivious to the DoD budget cuts before this looming $500 billion cut, because you're a fucking moron.
The DoD has been laying off GS civilians left and right and also downsizing the troop levels too, uh that is a cutback in spending.
Also, the DoD has stopped certain programs like the F/A-22, TSAT, etc which is because of FUCKING BUDGET CUTS.
Now you idiot liberals want the Air Force to pay more for "green" fuel for planes and the Navy more for "green fuel" for their ships....while they cut the budget to pieces. You are just fucking stupid.

Romney Blames Obama For Bipartisan Military Spending Cuts | ThinkProgress
Ahead of NATO summit, Mitt Romney argues that bipartisan defense cuts are Obama's fault - The Washington Post
Yep, I like that. There are many programs to cut in govt.
By Max J. Rosenthal
In a week when defense industry leaders gathered in Washington to sound the alarm about potential cuts to defense spending, Mitt Romney pledged his support for a "military that's second to none" and vowed not to slash the Pentagon's funds.
"I will not cut the military budget," he told the American Legion, which published excerpts on Thursday from an interview with the presumptive Republican nominee. "I will instead expand our essential weapons programs and our [number of] active-duty personnel. I do these things not so that we have to fight wars, but so that we can prevent wars."
Romney is a longtime critic of cutting the defense budget, arguing that shrinking the numbers of ground troops, planes and ships will damage national security. While the Pentagon has proposed $487 billion in budget cuts over the next decade, Romney has suggested increasing the military's budget by as much as $2 trillion during the same period, according to some estimates.
