I was a Reagan supporter when the moderates forced Ford on us, another pretend Conservative

Lesser of two evils. dont'cha know.

Reagan was far from an ideal Conservative, but he was handicapped by a Democratic legislature.

He failed to kill the Department of Education, he did manage to raise the speed limit from the asinine 55mph implemented by the peanut.

He originally fought the Kemp/Roth tax cut as too high(Most here don't remember that) but finally succumbed to a so called 30% tax cut which was really a 10/10/10 over three years, not nearly the same as a straight 30%.
