http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/may/22/inside-the-ring-nsa-under-reagan/?page=all ~ notice, not the POST, this is the TIMES. Without comment this is based on a declassified history of what Ronaldus Magnus did regarding NSA during his period of service.
Interesting. So Regan increased the size and scope of the NSA.
And what was the result? Only the end of the threat of nuclear weapons and the demise of the Communist Soviet Union.
A good deal if you ask me. But now Bammie uses this same agency to spy on right wingers and at the same time ignore the muslim threats.
God, I miss Reagan. But then again - I miss the USA even more.
