Reagan was human and made mistakes. That, pulling out of Lebanon, Bitburg, and Justice Sandra Day O'Conner were his big ones.

The key difference is that Ronnie's mistakes were not done out of crass political calculation, nor personal gain - he was pure of heart, so far as I could tell.

And he NEVER would have taken a huge pay raise while shipping US jobs overseas, like your candidate did.

But I'll reiterate: TO GIVE THE IMPRESSION THAT RONALD REAGAN SUPPORTED ABORTION BECAUSE WHEN GOVERNOR HE SIGNED A BILL INVOLVING ABORTION GOES AGAINST HISTORY, HIS OWN MEMOIRS, AND IS SCUMMY.

Running to Jim?

Grow up.

Furthermore, Carly wasn't my candidate, I voted for DeVore tonight.

Secondly, when did you become God and start reading the hearts of men and women to decide whose actions were of a pure heart and whose were not?

Thirdly, 2ndDivisionVet has already made clear his purpose in bringing up Reagan's signing of the Abortion bill, to prove a point to you and your lack of objectivity where Sarah Palin is concerned.

You'll give Reagan a pass, but pretend to know what the motivation of Governor Palin was in endorsing two bad candidates.

What a dufus.

Ronny Reagan was the lifeguard at the swimming hole in Dixon, Illinois when we were growing up there in the '30s. Ronny was a good kid, a mediocre actor, and a great president.

But he was no more "pure conservative" than Sarah Palin. Pure is pure is pure. There is no 110%.

Tool.

His signing of the Military Ex-Spouse Protection Act (read: Screw Military Retirees Act) was my greatest gripe against him, along with amnesty in 1986, but his overall positive impact overrides the shortfalls.

Reagan’s biggest mistake was selected Bush as his VP
