The Right Wing's Lies About Most Everything

It was more than just Afghanistan.

He also wouldn't back down on "Star Wars" and also wouldn't back down on the B-1b.

That and nuclear arms just pushed the Soviet Union into backruptcy. They could not keep up.

IMO, I think "Star Wars" was pretty much nothing but a bluff or an attempt get the USSR to spend more money.... Reagan was intelligent - he knew he could destroy the USSR by keeping them spending money on defense. Remember we're taking socialists here - a economic model that is not focused on generating wealth but an economic model that is focused on sustaining a populace. Regan understood that, and he understood the USSR could not sustain a populace while spending epic amounts of money on war... That's what ultimately destroyed the USSR and that is why Russia today is quasi-capitalist.

Star Wars was a bluff but the Soviet Union took that bluff very seriously.

If you will remember the Soviet Union put a lot of promises on the table if Reagan would give up on Star Wars but Reagan refused every time.

He even walked away from the table on that.

That was the reason the libs kept wringing their hands.

Do you remember all the libs crying about Reagan refusing to give up Star Wars?

I SURE DO!

This thead itself is testament to the fact the libs are still mad that Reagan proved them 100% wrong!

It's been 24 years since Reagan left office and they still haven't got over it!

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

Well I was 8 when Reagan left office... So I really never experienced that period as an adult or young adult..... Of course I remember Reagan, however most of what I've learned is via books, newspaper articles, old posts on BBS etc....

Absolutely, progressives thought Reagan was a crazy ass cowboy and the OP's post just goes to show how brainwashed progressives really are.

It's clear progressives do absolutely no research into their claims - they just take another talking head progressive babble to be the truth then pass it on - it's like the "telephone game."
 
:lol:

another right wing myth

:laugh2:

Really? how is it a myth????

You fucking idiot progressives only love to use the fact Reagan armed al-Qaeda to make a point with the war on terrorism - now Reagan didn't bankrupt the USSR by doing such??

You're seriously a fucking idiot - everyone knows the USSR went bankrupt over the cost of war...


clue: the USSR was weak when Reagan took office. Either you believe this to be true, or you believe a super power can collapse from a mere few years of struggle.

clue: The USSR and the Soviet Block (you know what the soviet block was?) were already experiencing social change and divisions. POLAND SOLIDARITY WORKER'S UNION?
Leading conservatives like Howard Phillips said Reagan was weak on the Soviet Union

"...conservatives such as Phillips were accusing their old hero of selling out to the communists, The Washington Post said this in Reagan's last year: "In less than a decade, the world's largest creditor nation has become its leading debtor, foreign competition humbled America's mightiest companies, hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs have disappeared and middle-class living standards have declined in many communities.""

No, the USSR was operating until the Afghan/Soviet war which began a year before Regan took office in 1979...

Besides - you're fucked now little shit.

Either socialism is a failure or Reagan is a success - pick it now progressive fuck....

See you're a fucking idiot...

The Reagan Legacy Project, started in 1997 by the conservative lobbyist Grover Norquist, seeks to name something -- a stadium, a stretch of turnpike, anything -- after Reagan in every state in the union.

another thread hijacked by Tea Party Imbeciles high on a drug called delusion

True, the Nick & TPS :lol:

You're a fucking idiot..

You fucking retards sit here all day defending big government and socialism - then your little Dante buddy comes along and implies that socialism is to blame for the fall of the USSR and that Reagan was a pussy...

To sum up your boys stupid assertion "socialism in other countries fail only when republicans are president."

Of course you will buy that bag of dicks because it fits what you want to believe - not what the truth is...

I'm perplexed as to how you progressive retards survive given how grossly dumb you are - oh yeah - government takes care of you.....

It's amazing how you can even operate a computer let alone use a keyboard to communicate your blatantly ignorant views and ideas..
 
Again: Five myths about Ronald Reagan's legacy

1. Reagan was one of our most popular presidents.

2. Reagan was a tax-cutter.

3. Reagan was a hawk.

4. Reagan shrank the federal government.

5. Reagan was a conservative culture warrior.

:laugh2:

4. The number of federal employees grew from 2.8 million to 3 million under Reagan, in large part because of his buildup at the Pentagon. (It took the Democratic administration of President Bill Clinton to trim the employee rolls back to 2.7 million.) Reagan also abandoned a campaign pledge to get rid of two Cabinet agencies - Energy and Education - and added a new one, Veterans Affairs.

5. In 1981, Reagan unintentionally did more than any other president to prevent the Roe v. Wade abortion ruling from being overturned when he appointed Sandra Day O'Connor to the Supreme Court. O'Connor mostly upheld abortion rights during her 25 years as a justice.

3. With the exception of the 1986 bombing of Libya, Reagan also disappointed hawkish aides with his unwillingness to retaliate militarily for terrorism in the Middle East. According to biographer Lou Cannon, the president called the death of innocent civilians in anti-terror operations "terrorism itself."

In 1987, Reagan aide Paul Bremer, later George W. Bush's point man in Baghdad, even argued that terrorism suspects should be tried in civilian courts. "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," Bremer said. In 1988, Reagan signed the United Nations Convention Against Torture, which stated that torture could be used under "no exceptional circumstances, whatsoever."

:laugh2:

2. Ultimately, Reagan signed measures that increased federal taxes every year of his two-term presidency except the first and the last. These included a higher gasoline levy, a 1986 tax reform deal that included the largest corporate tax increase in American history, and a substantial raise in payroll taxes in 1983 as part of a deal to keep Social Security solvent. While wealthy Americans benefited from Reagan's tax policies, blue-collar Americans paid a higher percentage of their income in taxes when Reagan left office than when he came in.

The last time I checked it was the USSR that went bankrupt NOT the US....

Now you're just making shit up - It's pretty pathetic - especially considering you're arguing against FACTS now...

Yeah, keep on spewing shit so the world can see how fucking dumb the typical Obamafuck voter truly is...

The USA and the USSR had a cold war.

Reagan fought against medicare, medicaid, social programs in USA? He lost. Reagan grew the US Government.

I don't fucking care.... You fucking think that means dick to me??

You think you're some sort of patriot because you served??? I got news for you idiot - terrorists have served in the military.....

You think your tyrannical views and blatant ignorance are cloaked in cammo?

Don't even try to hide behind the fact you served - IMO you're a disgrace to everything this country stands for... Just because you put on the uniform doesn't mean you believe in the founding concepts.

No socialism lost because there is no more USSR.....

Reagan did grow government - I'm not even a fan of Reagan but you're just an idiot who needs to be redundantly corrected...

I mean we're only talking about facts here - not opinion...
