Usually comments like this are given as part of an opus. So is this your opus? Not that I'm dropping any hints or anything....

I think he would have been proud of Free Republic.
Very proud.
I know I am.

Do you think Ronald Reagan would ever have said or thought the ugly things that are said about Hillary Clinton or Janet Reno? Are you referring to people taking potshots at their looks? Only a small minority around here do that. Criticizing their politics is fair game, even if the criticism is harsh.
There are times, such as this morning, when I am ashamed by this site.
What happened this morning?

Do you think he would have called a first lady "Hitlery"? As much as he would have hated her politics, he never would sink to calling an American that name.

We have gotten too negative, too nasty, and too petty and small-minded.I don't know where you hang out or who you pi$$ed off but,
I think that Reagan would appreciate FreeRepublic very much.
We stand behind Conservative principles.

What happened this morning is that I am reminded that it is possible to be Conservative AND decent.
To: PolitBase
I don't think you're wrong in your frustration. I also think this forum would be nowhere near conservative enough for Reagan.

Do you think Ronald Reagan would ever have said or thought the ugly things that are said about Hillary Clinton or Janet Reno? He suffered from Alzheimers...not blindness.....:)

Reagan would have loved this forum. There is a vast diversity of ideas expressed here. Certainly there is some negativity, but there is also a lot of hope and optimism expressed. DU on the other hand, is a website that just stinks of hatred and pessimism.
To: PolitBase
Odd that you think of OWK as someone reaching for something better.
When I remember his posts, I remember a guy who was a valiant advocate for dopeheads and homosexuals.
I don't believe Reagan would have found him worth keeping around.

One can be conservative and not nasty.
To: PolitBase
I think Reagan would have called a spade a spade.
I honestly think he would have been disgusted with the klinktons and would have said so.

If you'd truly been following FR since '99, I think you'd know what an opus is....
Basically, it's some person who talks about how good FR used to be, and how hateful it's gotten, and gosh, isn't it awful, and so "I'm going to leave the forum to stew in its hate-filled pools of dog bile."

He'd never have tolerated the "kill all the Muslims" attitude that dominates the FR now.
