Why Do Progressives Hate Reagan?

[frigidweirdo]

Er... I'm not a Communist.

Oh sure you're not - you're one of the Capitalists who advocate for a totalitarian state where the means of production are controlled by the central authority!

IOW - a democrat.

I love it when people tell me who I am and mess it up so badly it hurts.

No, I'm not a Communist, Democrat, Republican, Nazi, nor a flower arranger or piano player. Okay? Anything else you'd like to tell me what I am when you actually don't even know the first thing about me?

And no, that's not what I'm saying either.

As for your last comment, you do realise that the white working class got hit the hardest in 2008, harder than any time since the great depression, right? That happened under Bush's presidency, his "trickle down" theory clearly not working very well.

You Communists love to alter the terminology, note how you use the Marxian "working class" moniker?

The MIDDLE CLASS suffered the greatest losses in 2009-10. But the losses have continued since. Because Obama and those who follow him DO see a "working class" and a ruling class, you celebrate the fact that those in the middle slide into subsistence level existence. Hey, those clerks and middle managers who now have to survive on food stamps can be happy - they can flip burgers for $15 an hour - yeah, they won't be able to afford to buy one of them - and yeah - automation will have them on the street in a couple of years, but the great leveling makes it all worthwhile. The democrats at the top are using everything you have to push the middle down to the bottom - all will be equal - except our rulers, of course!

Yep, you Obamunists have a vision for the future...

Oh, did I tell you that I've never voted for Obama? That clearly makes me an "Obamunist" right?

So.... you said middle class and you clearly can read because yes, I wrote working class. Er..... so...... what's your point? That you can spot the difference?

 

[frigidweirdo]

Seeing Reagan had the highest post war unemployment rate.....

What is the average for your god?

I don't do gods......

Oh, did I tell you I've never voted for Obama? Oh, yeah, I did that already. Did I tell you I've never voted Democrat either?

[I can understand Republicans wanting to rewrite history in Reagan's favor. It was their first president for a time that portrayed their vision of a president. Their history: Reagan destroyed the USSR, brought peace to the world, balanced the budget, paid off the debt, strengthened our defenses and loved Nancy.
Still he was not all bad, when the going was tough for Reagan he voted for FDR; when it eased Reagan voted Republican. I also had the feeling that in his last years he came and went, and when he went the Republican party did their thing with taxes Iran-Contra and so forth, but was that Reagan or the Republican party?

I can understand the hatred you feel.

The USSR was the sum of the hopes and dreams you had - fuck, Obama is recreating it as we speak - so when Reagan brought it down, he destroyed your dreams.

You of the left exist purely on demagoguery - slander, libel, smears, and general filth is what you bring to this world. In the early 90's, I had some concern that the filthy lies you tell might actually tarnish the greatest president of the 20th century - but they didn't. That ship has long ago sailed. The lies you tell now only excite your fellow leftists. The general public doesn't believe your idiotic shit - and never will.

 

[jasonnfree]

You're the one who named his stock market as an accomplishment.

It really wasn't.

The working class was poorer when Reagan was done. that's the point.

A blatant lie, but hey - you're a Communist - so all your points are lies.

Uncensored, you need to spend more of your time finding that post you said I made which I didn't make, or I'll just keep calling you a lying sack of dog crap.

 

[Uncensored2008]

I love it when people tell me who I am and mess it up so badly it hurts.

This is a message board - you are what you post here.

No, I'm not a Communist,

In this forum, you advocate for a command economy and the authoritarian controls by our rulers in Washington DC needed to enforce the will of the party on all Americans.

You can call it "Goldilocks," but reality won't be altered.

Oh, did I tell you that I've never voted for Obama? That clearly makes me an "Obamunist" right?

So.... you said middle class and you clearly can read because yes, I wrote working class. Er..... so...... what's your point? That you can spot the difference?

"Working Class" is a Marxian construct that precludes the middle. The bane of the left has always been the middle, the Bourgeoisie. Nothing has changed except the buzz words, the goal is still to destroy the transitional class that bridges the peasants to the ruling elite. The rise of the middle class during the Market Revolution altered the nation in a profound way, giving huge political and economic power to the masses

The destruction of the middle class under Obama and the democrats is having just as profound of an effect. I did better than my parents, more education and more income. My children will not do as well as I - there children will not do as well as they. The great leveling will push the middle down. The most menial and valueless will be paid the same as the most productive. But all save the rulers will live hand to mouth, at the pleasure of the state.

$15 minimum wage? $50 minimum wage - it's all the same, it is the concept that value is not a factor, that all will be paid the same, regardless of what they produce.

Or to put it in the words of Obama, "to each according to their needs, from each according to their ability."

You say this isn't Communism - but in the clear light of sobriety - it certainly is.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Uncensored, you need to spend more of your time finding that post you said I made which I didn't make, or I'll just keep calling you a lying sack of dog crap.

Your posts have less meaning than a fart in the wind, in addition, you have less intellect than the same.

BTW; who's sock are you? I notice you are only brought out when certain posters are getting their asses kicked. I would think Dog Cum, but that would mean he was smart enough to spoof an IP, which is just too far fetched....

I don't hate Reagan, as I said Reagan voted for FDR and that shows some intelligence, and I was sorry when Reagan began to slip in twinkie-land, giving the Republican party more control over affairs than they should have had. Perhaps the saddest example was when Congress investigated Iran-Contra and Reagan used the "I forget" 124 times.
The general public can rate presidents but after the last election it's pretty much turned over to the historians and historians have rated Reagan as average.

And this statement (and many others like it) has had me worried about you Nazis for as long as I can remember. You hold dead or dying Presidents of the "other" party to extreme standards. Yet, you REFUSE to hold the current poseur in chief even remotely accountable for anything. This man has been a miserable failure from his first day in office, yet there is complete silence. In fact, you have spent nearly 6 years blaming George Bush for Obama's shortcomings. You wonder why I refer to liberals as "Nazis"? Because you are lemmings. You have blindly followed Obama as the German people did prior to WWII. You all should have rings through your collective noses.

I have a news flash for you and the other water-carriers of the extreme radical left - America has awakened and they aren't buying your - or your president's bullshit any longer. Your prayer for a socialist Utopia is over. Unfortunately, it will take the next person to hold that office far too many years to "undo" the trouble that your boy has put this country into.

Read the sig below. It is the truth. I didn't write it - a democrat did.

Ronald Reagan is the Father of Income Inequality. He saw it in his dreams and he knew that his policies would lead to it. He accomplished his goal.

I'm trying to get a handle on Why Progressives Hate Reagan. Is it that he was a dictator who ignored Tip O'Neill's Congress and just ordered the government to spend and spend and spend?

Was it the stock market?

His love of American?

What?

Sorry, Reagan allowed Thatcherism, meaning liar loans. And he was such a stooge that he didn't even live to see the carnage. He passed the act allowing liar loans in 1982.

 

[Gary Anderson]

Reagan wasn't even a patriot. He allowed Thatcherism, a financial system with no Glass-Steagall law, from a foreign nation, the Brits, to engulf the USA resulting in the housing crash. Screw Reagan. You guys are clueless.

I don't agree with that. Politicians lie, both Republicans and Democrats.

Cecil Rhodes was so sure that the US would return to the United Kingdom that he instituted the Rhodes scholarships, which his institute funds, for Americans as well. Clinton, walking in the footsteps of Reagan, was a Rhodes Scholar and repealed Glass-Steagall.

I wrote an article about Thatcher. The seat of finance that screwed the USA is located in the Square Mile. Read it and weep, especially if you fancy yourself as a libertarian: Examples of Globalization Margaret Thatcher Died Today and I Am Not Sorry

He was waxing prophetic about you liberal Nazis and it has come to fruition. I put liberal nazis in the same category as radical islamists. A clear and present danger to the United States of America.
