((( FreeRepublic is infiltrated by a small minority of pro Neo-commie Kremlin enthusiasts... a great Reagan speech about Russia is good medicine for them. )))

Address to the National Association of Evangelicals in Orlando, Florida that would come to represent Reagan's view of the Soviet Union. Reagan defends America's Judeo-Christian traditions against the Soviet Union's totalitarian leadership and lack of religious faith, expressing his belief that these differences are at the heart of the fight between the two nations.

Dear Allegrov,

Why so upset?
It’s thanks to the American Constitution that Free Republic exists. That you and I can express ourselves freely, but respectfully.
In Russia the equivalent of a FreeRepublic website daring to question the Government, in any way, would be banned. You know that evidently. Don’t pretend you don’t.

So be happy you can express yourself here. I am happy you can do this.
It’s based on the principles of free speech, in opposition to cancel culture.

Your seem to hate Zelensky asking for help because his country is being invaded by half a million Russian soldiers and by convicts and rapists working for a mercenary Russian terror organization called “Wagner”.

If YOUR country endured the same horrific onslaught by invading forces leveling villages and cities..., wouldn’t YOUR President do the same as Zelenky ? - and start asking for some help from his allies ?

Asking is not a crime, you can’t hate someone just because he is asking.
The last decision comes from the US governing structure - it can say YES or NO to anything Zelensky asks for. That’s it! Be mad at the US Government if you like. Here in the USA you can openly criticize the Government. You can’t in Russia... right ?

Go away, foreign troll. I’m not reading any more of your stinking leftist tripe.

I will allow you the last word. You’re tiresome, you smell and I’m done with you. I can’t stand leftists.

Bye now!

Reagan initiated his Presidency with military opposition to the Soviet Union and Communism and learned that it wasn't the best way to defeat both.

Reagan spent his second term using the productive miracle of the US Economy to demonstrate the unsustainability of both the Soviet Union and Communism without use of the military or firing a shot.

The fact that the Soviet Union continued to dissolve for three years AFTER Reagan left office proves his method of Diplomacy successful.

The funding of American Afghan Policy through Reagan's second term and subsequent NeoCon Presidents resulted in serious Islamic Terrorism blowback and the eventual US humiliation in Afghanistan.

Reagan succeeded where US Military Policy failed, it's a simple as that.

Reagan learned it, you can too.

Dear DesertRhinovsky,

Relax a bit internet warrior...
We are expressing ourselves freely, but respectfully... no need for you to be insulting for so little. Use some humor instead. Cancel culture and hysteria has no place here on FreeRepublic.

Anyway, I’m happy you agree with me in the total support of the Reagan philosophy.

He would be appalled by the deep-state here in the USA and he would ALSO be appalled by the deep-sate run by the Kremlin in Russia. Yes, Russia has a deep-state TOO, and the brave Russian people are victims of it!

As I said previously :
LGBT is a horrible cultural-marxist terror machine.
The very rare thing we conservatives have in common with Kremlin-Soviets and China-Communists is our utter dislike for LGBT.

THAT doesn’t mean we have to share and celebrate all the other commie-stuff Russia and China do - Right ?

It’s perfectly alright to be anti-LGBT, as all of us conservatives are, while at the same time being against dear leader Putin and his deep-state mafia friends.

America must combat on two fronts at the same time.
Against culture-marxism here is the USA, AND at the same time against the reborn Russian-Soviet-IRAN alliance! Islamo-Soviets aren’t good for America.

Have a nice Christmas.
(Putin seems to hate it, since his troops killed 7 civilians on a market in Kherson this morning). Cold butchering of civilians as usual... His family values could be better...

There you go with the “So…” crap. You little lackeys think you’re so clever with your silly tricks, don’t you? There’s a reason you’re called “useful idiots.”

You’re nothing but a snippy little leftist mouthpiece. You’ve never done anything worthwhile for this country and you aren’t fit to shine the boots of those of us who have.

Now run along, you vapid little selfie-taking, avocado-toast-gobbling snot. I’ve done enough troll ass-kicking today.

No, you are rewriting history in your service to Russia.

Reagan first set out to stop Russia from attacking us/NATO in what intelligence circles and myself thought was going to be about 1984.

Once Russia was deprived of that window of opportunity it was thought that they would not have such a chance again for at least another 10+ years, Russian leaders kept dying and the Reagan war machine and our economy kept excelling, the communists were forced to try dealing with Reagan and their leader number 4 was to lead during this time of no chance of defeating us, eventually, that leader made a fatal mistake of lessening his grip on his slave states, and his empire crumbled too rapidly for him to realistically stop it.

Afghanistan worked, and Reagan’s war machine/economy/NATO alliances worked and he combined that toughness with his great powers of iron fist/velvet glove diplomacy and he adapted his toughness and diplomacy to each new change that his successes offered.

Reagan won because he understood the Russian threat and how hated they were by their slave states, in time he managed to pull that loose thread and the bloody cage of evil came unraveled, Reagan would not like to see Russia rebuilding its empire today.

Reagan wouldn’t have allowed the victorious West, to rape Russia economically, like Bush and Clinton did. I believe he advocated a “Marshall Plan” to help rebuild the Russian economy.

Reagan would have smilingly done whatever it took to help Russia never become a threat to the world again, if they would accept becoming civilized fine, then he would support that, but he would do what it takes to stop them from doing what they are doing now.

Reagan would never have let them go this far.

Howard Fast was a Communist Party activist that hated Reagan and just made up the claim as one of his anti-Reagan attacks.

Reagan biographer Morris interviewed the Reagan critic, Fast.

“When Morris asked the former president if he had tried to join the party, Reagan denied it.

“Why no. Good Lord, no,” he replied.”

Hate me all you want but how about a good word for America?

Oh, well. In any case I wish you a Merry Christmas and the best of blessings for the New Year!

LOL - you don’t fool me, troll.

Only a fat, Eastern European leftist troll would question a true American’s patriotism just because she doesn’t side with Biden, Obama and Pelosi. I don’t owe you 💩, Meg. There are plenty of people on this site whom I’ve met personally on several occasions. I know the owner of this site personally. So I don’t owe some leftist foreigner any validation.

I’ve been toying with your snippy little indoctrinated ass all day. 😂

I don’t hate you. I don’t hate anybody, not even your heroes Biden, Obama or Pelosi. I’m a Christian.

I *do* think of you as a mouthy little snot who is quite self-absorbed and isn’t particularly bright.

I will wish you a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year in which you will grow up and obtain a kinder heart and think more outside your own self.

Cheers!

It would still be nice if you said something nice about America.

I know I love the Constitution and I consider it an expression of genius. What do you like about America?
