I couldn't disagree more. Ronald Reagan was attacked viciously for many of the very lines the media plays over and over this week. He was not considered to have the stature, intelligence or grip on presidentiality required by the times. He was thought to be a relic of another era.
History has proved his critics wrong, the love and affection displayed this week by average Americans has proved them wrong. I will not take their bait and allow those that attacked Reagan to reluctantly celebrate him only to create a political wedge between him and Bush.
Tom Shales never spoke a kind word about Reagan while he was alive. He's a bitter, small man. His talk about a "gargantuan" hole between Reagan and Bush is laughable. Shales'cup of tea was always Clinton, just like the rest of these lying pigs in the media. Talk about gaps between integrity and leadership...
