That's extremely partisan and it's one writers views and generalizations. It servers no purpose. It was a different world then and much was omitted. BTW , were you even old enough to wipe your own ass when he was elected?

becasue = because

my God your pathetic right now Noc. seriously taking jabs at my grammer ? your pathetic you know that ? ITs great to see you when your down on the ground, did you do the same thing to your Islamic teacher ? When you can't fight the facts as suaul you resort to fighting my poor grammer.

Where are your facts. The national debt doesnt matter when your National Product is the size of the United States. Did Reagan have speed bumps - certainly. That 10% unemployment rate during 83 was killer - but those 5%-7's during the majority of his presidency sure were sweet.

For all the hand-wringing and historical rewritting, the United States is not and hasnt been in "trouble" since 1930 and the passage of the New Deal. Get the fuck over it.

Read the website, how can they research when they can't even form reasonable points? Sure I could take a bunch of facts and twist them around all Michael Moore on you, but I leave that to the unbathed liberals. I like to refer to the America:Canada relationship as our nuts to your chins, everytime we do something right while you copy it gives you a nice money shot to show you how influenced by us and how fucking uncreative all of your fur trappers and truckers are. Seeing how youve got what? 1000 educated rational thinkers in the country. If I get banned for saying shit it shows you how fucking hypocritcal people are on this board are, because short and pyro can say what they want, but If an american tells canada how shitty their copycat country is. OMG TEH TRUTH?!!?!??!

Fuck short hand, fuck pyro, and fuck your views.

[quote="TGB!":29c32]It's not deep at all.

1. All presidents have had at least one person idicted on their staff; whether in a cabinet or advisor. This is no new news and shouldnt even be close to being treated as some isolated Regean happening.

2. The country was in the shitter economically following Carters presidency. Regean came in and created a new federal policy. The short version of Regeans federalism simply restructured gov to not be so fucking involved in states and their programs which creats federal red tape and bullshit.

3. National/Trade Debt/Deficit. Look at the Clinton years.

The article is a textbook case of playing partisan journalism. Regean should have been impeaced for Contra-Gate - then why wasnt he? Oh yea, big Right Wing Conspiracy. Oh no he negotiated with Saddam Hussein. Well we better get Chirac in chains since good ol France gave a young Hussein a tour of their nuclear facilities. Whoo Hooo!!
[/quote:29c32]

-CHirac should be impeached, his violations of the right of Islam's in France is disgusting.

Clintons years were no where near in comparision to the Reagen years TGB, Get some facts to back this shit up that Clinton put the nation anywhere near into dept as much as Reagen, you will be surprised he comes no where close.

What about Education ? notice how it is still federally controlled in AMerica ? all that red tape cutting was just a ay off freeing up money in unneeded areas of spendin to free up money for his buffed up programs such as Star Wars. NOtice he keeps Education under Federal duristriction. (Get um brainwashed young and you got um for life).

Levinstein logic

1 Points are perfectly fine... shit ok now what.

2 I see lets say their bullshit, say somethinjg about a man who makes perfectly fine documentaries, then spurt some racist crap, in a hateful way. Great going.

-The facts are not twisted only presented in a clear form. Which to you is a threat there fore it is to you some how untrue.

Do you have any clue as to what state this country was in prior to Reagan taking office? Much of what you sited was reprocussions of the late seventies and early eighties. We were in the more heated periods of the cold war, the economy was shit, gas was having to be rationed, the military was severly underfunded and outdated compared to the Russians, and terrorism was really starting to gain a foot hold in the world. You must take the whole picture, not just some excerpts from a text.

You think Clinton came in and just MAGICALLY created a workable economy (that STILL added on debt)?

Education ISNT federally controlled noob. We have these things called GRANTS. GRANTS are given in many different flavors: block grants, grant-in-aid, etc. The Federal Gov. being the most powerful level of gov. gives cash to the states to create and fund programs the US gov wants. The GIVE money. They dont create the programs. Every state has its OWN education program.

What do you want from me? You want me to go link a half-dozen Conservative analyses of Clinton/Gore? I could certainly do it. Or I could link a Conservative rendition of Reagan as well.

The point is, you are linking a KNOWN biased source of information and trying to herald it as being absolute truth. Sure, Reagan fucked up. Show me a President that hasn't fucked up. All this article does is try to put a negative spin on Reagan's presidency because it's all over the news and the writer knows that people will read it and therefore possibly form an opinion regarding Republicans just in time for the upcoming presidential election.

Now if you still want me to go link whoring, I certainly will, but we both know it's not going to change your opinion and you'll be just as fucking wrong as when you posted. Stop trying to acknowledge only half the truth.

Jesus Christ I'm to the point where I just can't even deal with the lot of you ignorant fucks who spew bullshit like this all day.
