RE: Ronald Reagan: An Autopsy

“A political legacy is not a prescription for a set of policies; it is a set of values and principles. The challenge for today's leaders is not so much hewing to what Reagan did in the 1980s, but figuring out where he might lead in the 21st century.”

Let me make sure this is coming from someone that I have a good bit of respect for, and not a Moonbat:

 

Michael, you cut and paste a nasty, hateful (more importantly) untruthful article from some Moonbat, and you are expecting me to do what? 

 

Address your cut and paste article from Lew Rockwell, a known Anarchist, (who I tend to believe is a communist in disguise, but I digrress)

 

No, I will not address your, "cut and pastes" any longer.   I have spent hours addressing them previously, with no response from you when I point out the fallacies.

 

You start talking, and demonstrate why it is that you believe Ronald Reagan was a (and I quote)  "Dismal....Concentration Camp"  story.

 

 

This article in and of itself ought to turn the light bulb on for you, that Lew Rockwell is a hack....

Reagan’s Phony Revolution

Writes David Stockman:

Thanks for reprinting Murray Rothbard’s classic take-down of the “Reagan Revolution.” With the passage of time, the mythology only gets amplified­so people need to be reminded about the truth. I took a modest crack at this in the attached interview in which I reminded readers that the Reagan Revolution was a Lincoln Day Dinner speech! It never actually happened in the real world of fiscal policy. And as you might recall,  program after program was saved by stalwart conservatives like Jesse Helms, Ed Meese, etc.
