Nope, didn't think so.
I assume you actually read the article and realize the paragraph that starts this thread is not her "first" paragraph in this piece. If you don't think our economy is strong, vote in Democrats. You complain about larger government and then demand more government input in events like Katrina and building the largest wall since the Great Wall of China. Maybe you should vote democrat. If you think the Democrats will be tougher in foreign policy than George Bush, vote them into office. If you think democrats will EVER give you a tax cut, vote them in. If you think budget deficits are permanent, curse Reagan. But personally, Peggy's bitch list doesn't sway me to sit on my hands.
Later, she says this, "Republicans on the ground back home got mad. Eventually they threw the old guys out and sent to Washington in 1980 a guy who meant it when he said he'd cut and contain." You do realize that Ronald Reagan did EXACTLY what she just finished bitching about in spades. Yet, he is lifted up by her as the ultimate goal. I believe he is. But then, I'm not condemning current Republicans for doing exactly what he did.
