Here’s the sick thing...if you take a conglomerate of every time the word RINO is uttered on FR...everyone is a RINO. Everyone. Reagan, Newt, Perry, Romney, Jesus Christ, everyone.

Reagan himself would probably be banished from FR if he were alive today.

You are right. Reagan was no Romney.
Comparing today’s America, or the world, to that of thirty years ago, is comparing apples to oranges.
“Illegal” immigration, for example, was a fraction of what it has become.

I remember a program in the mid 80s where the USDA brought Mexicans up to work in the cotton gins, as they ran circles around the traditional native workers.
Mexicans were actually welcomed in those days.
They were closely supervised, and provided special housing.

I seriously doubt that Reagan would have put up what is
taking place today.
