Yeah, but you have to accomplish something to be a good President in both terms. The second term, as I recall, he put in a tax 'compromise' that was really a tax increase.

I like Reagan, too, but I don't remember his second term being really productive for conservatives. Certainly not like the first two years were.

I don't think the 86 tax law was an increase. It resulted in two brackets and elimination of lots of deductions. He did agree to an increase in 82 which we should be angry about but the 86 tax law was a good one.

Perhaps you forgot Rejkavik, which caused international communism to topple.
