Why Do Progressives Hate Reagan?

[Uncensored2008]

Yet another Conservative sycophant lacking in critical thinking skills and forensic abilities.

Is it de-riguer for Conservatives to be dense, dim witted and equipped to respond "You're Stupid!" and clear the field? With mad debate skills like that, why should we who read pay attention to them? Petulanc,e thy name is Conservatism!

So let's recap; you post a list of lies from one of the hate sites, which have been debunked dozens of times in this thread alone, then you whine when I point out that you are a drone, incapable of thought, aping the party line on command by your masters.

Does that about cover it?

Hey Nosmo, what do they call a democrat with an IQ above 90?

A Republican....

Well, what law did Reagan break in trading arms for hostages (whom we didn't get back for the arms, btw)? Reagan's admin broke the law in using money Iran paid us for the arms to buy different arms for the contras. Reagan's personal knowledge was never shown.

Reagan violated the Boland amendment. Hezbollah, the terrorist group controlled by Iran, held seven American hostages. Three were released after transfer of TOW anti tank missiles were delivered to Iran. Shortly after they were released three more were kidnapped. Reagan's own advisers, complained that the policy was turning the mid east into a kidnapped Americans bizarre.

Hmmmm...so what about Obama trading Known Terrorists for a hostage?

Well that's different you see... Because the Soros Amendment, ratified by CommonDreams in 2012, specifies "Any enemy of the GLORIOUS PEOPLES PARTY, who does willfully cause to be released Americans held hostage, shall be guilty of blasphemy most foul."

Fact: Reagan allowed an Israeli company to sell spare parts to Iran for obsolete aircraft (yet still effective and deadly) on the promise that Iran would intervene with the "students" holding the hostages.

Not quite the fantastical tale Nosmo and the other Communists fabricate..

So in fact, the hostage deal violated no laws?

Thank you for you honesty, but expect to be expelled from the democratic party! (The party does not tolerate honesty!)

Reagan hated kids too. After the massacre of students at Kent State University in Ohio back in May of 1970, Governor Reagan said 'If it takes a bloodbath to clear our campuses, so be it. Let it begin here!"

What a champion of civil rights! Reagan should have been publically pilloried as the buffoon he was.

So then, you actually are mentally retarded? I'm picking on a handicapped kid?

I feel bad now...

This thread is absolutely bonkers. Also, why do conservatives assume that liberals critical of Reagan's policies like Obama?

Reagan violated the Boland amendment.

Nope.

First off, Boland was unconstitutional. Congress does not have the authority to conduct a foreign policy. While Jim Wright's 5th column was working on behalf of the USSR, they did not have the power to constrain policy by the Executive. Article II, section 1, clause 7 provides the power to effect a foreign policy to the president. While treaties require the consent of the Senate, congress has no authority to conduct foreign policy.

Secondly, Boland states that the United States could not provide military support to overthrow the Communist Sandinistas. Now fellow Travelers Edward Boland, Tom Harken, and Jim Wright worked on behalf of the interests of the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics, which needed a North American beach head from which to invade and threaten the borders of the United States. These three Soviet agents were tasked with ensuring the pentameter establishment of a Soviet base to rival Cuba. A move up through Honduras, Guatemala, then Mexico would put the Soviet army on the doorstep of America. The stakes were high, Wright and the other Soviet sympathizers could smell the victory for their side.

Reagan interfering with the creation of the Soviet state in Nicaragua would derail the master plan. Boland was a sloppy attempt to fling shit in hopes of keeping the Soviet plans moving, Boland was an absurd joke, and possibly treason.If a state of war were to exist, Boland, Harken, and Wright would unquestionably be guilty of treason per Article III, section 3, clause 1.

Thus Boland had no legal weight, it was merely a desperate attempt by the Soviet 5th column in congress to protect the interest of the USSR.

Hezbollah, the terrorist group controlled by Iran, held seven American hostages. Three were released after transfer of TOW anti tank missiles were delivered to Iran. Shortly after they were released three more were kidnapped. Reagan's own advisers, complained that the policy was turning the mid east into a kidnapped Americans bizarre.

Not TOW missiles, but parts for existing TOW systems, sold and delivered by an Israeli arms firm. While the action was ill advised, it was perfectly legal.

Progressives Hate Reagan because he was right about the same things their parents told them when they were growing up. They have "parental" issues.

Reagan hated kids too. After the massacre of students at Kent State University in Ohio back in May of 1970, Governor Reagan said 'If it takes a bloodbath to clear our campuses, so be it. Let it begin here!"

Funny - do you know the outcome of this "blood bath" at Kent State? I do. From that point on - when those worthless pieces of shit were told to disperse - they DISPERSED.

So you believe protesting is a capital offense? Or do you think the four killed by National Guardsmen were complicit in their own murder? Either way, yours a despicable view of college students.

Still a pile of dog shit I see. Nope. Protesting is an American right. Breaking the law is not. They were warned repeatedly to disperse. They threw rocks instead and got shot. Too bad, so sad. How many buildings did they burn down again?

They threw rocks?!? How dare they! After all, the fucking National Guard was packing live rounds!



You, sir are a moron of the first order.

The Boland Amendment forbade funds allocated the DoD or any other agency from being spent on the Contra forces or any other military or quasi military forces in Central America. That is why Reagan administration had to sell TOW and HAWK missiles for funding. The sale of those arms, even as you mistakenly claim "parts" violated the Arms Export Control Act and National Security Act of 1947. The sales being made to and through a third source is irrelevant if the final recipient is known to be on a specifically designated party on an exclusion list. Iran was an officially listed terrorist nation.

Oh, is that a fact?


The protest over the Vietnam War that was held at Kent State University, Ohio, in May 1970, made international headlines. Many protests against the war had been noisy but peaceful but as 1970 moved on, the protests took on a more violent aspect. Many universities held protests and the police in particular became targets for the protestors.


One such protest against the Vietnam War was scheduled to be held on Saturday May 2nd 1970. During this day one of the university’s buildings was burned to the ground. The next day was a lot quieter. However, the protest on Monday 4th somehow got out of hand.


National Guardsmen carrying rifles with fixed bayonets formed a line between the students and the burned out shell of a building. At this time there were students who were protesting but there were also students going to and from lectures or to the student lunch hall. Therefore, it has to be stated that not all those at Kent State were involved in the demonstration.


The students who were protesting were ordered to break up their protest and disperse. The National Guardsmen, who were outnumbered, fired tear gas at them. Witnesses claimed that they saw protestors throwing rocks at the Guardsmen who ran out of tear gas. They then fired live rounds on the students, killing four of them and wounding ten others.

Well, what law did Reagan break in trading arms for hostages (whom we didn't get back for the arms, btw)? Reagan's admin broke the law in using money Iran paid us for the arms to buy different arms for the contras. Reagan's personal knowledge was never shown.

There was a weapons embargo on Iran at the time. There still is. Which means that selling those weapons to Iran was illegal on top of being treason.

• The United States has imposed an arms ban and an almost total economic embargo on Iran, which includes sanctions on companies doing business with Iran, a ban on all Iranian-origin imports, sanctions on Iranian financial institutions, and an almost total ban on selling aircraft or repair parts to Iranian aviation companies. A license from the Treasury Department is required to do business with Iran. In June 2011, the United States imposed sanctions against Iran Air and Tidewater Middle East Co. (which runs seven Iranian ports), stating that Iran Air had provided material support to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which is already subject to UN sanctions, that Tidewater Middle East is owned by the IRGC, and that both have been involved in activities including illegal weapons transportation.[32] The U.S. has also begun to designate a number of senior Iranian officials under the Iranian Human Rights Abuses Sanctions Regulations. On 14 December 2011, the U.S. Department of Treasury designated Hassan Firouzabadi and Abdollah Araqi under this sanctions program.[33] In February 2012 the US froze all property of the Central Bank of Iran and other Iranian financial institutions, as well as that of the Iranian government, within the United States.[34] The American view is that sanctions should target Iran's energy sector that provides about 80% of government revenues, and try to isolate Iran from the international financial system.[35] On 6 Feb of 2013 the United States government blacklisted major Iranian electronics producers, Internet policing agencies, and the state broadcasting authority, in an effort to lessen restrictions of access to information for the general public. The sanctions were imposed to target Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting, which is responsible for broadcast policy in Iran and oversees production of Iranian television and radio channels. Also targeted were the "Iranian Cyber Police" and the "Communications Regulatory Authority" which the Treasury Department describes as authorities created three years ago to filter Web sites and monitor Internet behavior, while blocking Web sites deemed objectionable by the Iranian government. Currently, under American sanctions laws, any United States property held by blacklisted companies and individuals is impounded, and are prohibited from engaging in any transactions with American citizens.[36]
