Indeed.

"The day we forget that we are a nation "under God", then we will be a nation gone under."

-Ronald Reagan

Reagan squat shit on the American Middle Class. Republicans liked it even more when Bush did it.

You're going to use Reagan as an example of reduced spending to balance a budget?

 

[OriginalShroom]

Reagan told more truths in that short clip than Obama has in 10 years.

 

[Black_Label]

Obama is channeling Reagan's legacy while today's right wingers are shitting all over it.

No worries, we'll surely believe that when you post crap with the Think Progress logo smattered all over it.

 

[Agit8r]

Reagan warned South Africa about Nelson Mandela.

Must not be a reliable source...

 

[Locke11_21]

Isn't it interesting, the same year Barack Obama was born (1961), Ronald Reagan made this statement:


“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”

Reagan warned us of the coming evil to this nation a few months before Obama was born.

Reagan is the single most person responsible for the mess we're in. Reagan dropped a cluster bomb on the middle class.

"Ronald Reagan must be the nicest president who ever destroyed a union, tried to cut school lunch milk rations from six to four ounces, and compelled families in need of public help to first dispose of household goods in excess of $1,000...1f there is an authoritarian regime in the American future, Ronald Reagan is tailored to the image of a friendly fascist." - Robert Lekachman

Hmmm . . . South Africa is going to crap. It won't be long until it turns into another Zimbabwe.

So where did he "drop a cluster bomb on the middle class?"

Your example doesn't support your case.

There are so many cluster bombs Reagan dropped that haven't detonated yet they will continue to maim the American worker for generations.

The true irony of Ronald Reagan; he created a mythical 'welfare queen' used to deconstruct the middle class and trash the poor. Yet Ronald Reagan is the ultimate welfare queen personified.

As the liberal era that began with the New Deal came to an end with the splintering of the Democratic Party brought about by assassination of Presidents and future Presidents, the Vietnam War fiasco and conservative money creating 'think tanks', JFK and LBJ, the last two Presidents of that era faced the awful specter how to deal with revenue SURPLUSES. Public debt was not even part of our lexicon...

Enter Reagan, the welfare queen. Put everything on the Beijing credit card and dump the bill on our children, grandchildren and their children and grandchildren.

Reagan switched the federal government from what he critically called, a “tax and spend” policy, to a “borrow and spend” policy, where the government continued its heavy spending, but used borrowed money instead of tax revenue to pay the bills. The results were catastrophic. Although it had taken the United States more than 200 years to accumulate the first $1 trillion of national debt, it took only five years under Reagan to add the second one trillion dollars to the debt.


"The debt explosion has resulted not from big spending by the Democrats, but instead the Republican Party's embrace, about three decades ago, of the insidious doctrine that deficits don't matter if they result from tax cuts."
David Stockman - Director of the Office of Management and Budget for U.S. President Ronald Reagan.

"Grover Norquist has no plan to pay this debt down. His plan says you continue to add to the debt..."
Senator Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.)

“Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not and in a way that Bill Clinton did not.” Reagan was an ideological inflection point, ending a 50-year liberal ascendancy and beginning a 30-year conservative ascendancy.
Charles Krauthammer

 

[Lakhota]

Reagan was a joke.

 

[grunt11b]

First time on this board in almost a year, and the same dumbass leftwing hacks are still spewing the same stupid dumbass comments, still blind to what is going on in this country "Or complicit". This board has become a waste of time. See you in another year.

As Forrest Gump once declared, "Stupid is as stupid does"

Ronald Reagan, "The Great Communicator" inherited a notably high 7.5% nation wide unemployment rate coupled with an economy that declined in Real GDP growth by -0.3% and 13.5% inflation rate from the Carter administration. Under Carter, the prime lending rate hit 21.5% in December 1980, the highest rate in U.S. history under any President. In 1983, Ronald Reagan's economic policies provided substantial economic breakthrough and the 1st quarter GDP grew an astonishing 5.1%. The U.S. economy grew at a 4.5% pace in 1983 and a remarkable 7.2% in 1984. From 1948-2009, the U.S. economy has grown an average of 3.28% per fiscal year. During Reagan's eight tenure as President, Real GDP growth averaged 3.4% per fiscal year.

*Jimmy Carter's Misery Index scores = 16.27.

* George W. Bush's Misery Index for his term was 7.96, well below half that of Carter.

Man.. the best President this country has seen, well since 1980.

Interst rates were sky high and Carter had us in the toilet. The military was gutted under Carter and the Soviets were on the cusp of kicking our a$$. Couldn't afford a home in So Cal with the high interst rates and F/U economy.

Reagan fixed it

Interest rates started dropping, we pumped money back into the military, and the wall was torn down.

I miss a true leader like him
