"Thus by association you are mocking President Reagan?"
Are you implying that Reagan was dropped on his head at birth by a seven foot tall midwife too????
So, Reagan praises people who were dropped on their head at birth, huh?
And Paul Craig Roberts praises Reagan:
President Ronald Reagan's stature will grow as his achievements come to be more widely recognized.Few Americans realize that President Reagan's economic policy won the Cold War by rejuvenating capitalism. Members of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, with whom I spoke in Moscow during the Soviet Union's final months, agreed that it was President Reagan's confidence in capitalism, not his defense buildup, that caused Soviet leaders to lose their confidence.
[...]
Reagan's policy was a success. But at the time it was misunderstood. [...]
Some of us here are big fans of folks like Reagan. Some of us remember conservatism. Some of us understand.
