FACTS:


Bush cut taxes
Reagan cut them in 1981, then raised them in 1982 and 1983

Reagan signed a bill legalizing abortion in CA in 1967
Reagan gave amnesty to illegals
Reagan nearly gave away our entire nuclear deterrent in Iceland in 1986


I love Reagan but there is an afflictino that some on the right suffer from. It is called "Reagan the Ideal" Those who suffer from it conviently forget Reagans past transgressions but are only to eagar to highlight the littlest transgression by GW Bush

Reagan, like Bush, was a pragmatist. And he made some major mistakes, as Bush has.

But this view of Reagan as floating on some kind of pure conservative cloud is just silly.
