THIS was a great man.
“Nothing Like”?! How about exactly opposite?! Or world’s apart?! Or good vs evil?!
It’s interesting, isn’t it? Two candidates, and their supporters, keep trying to compare their guy TO Reagan. A third simply says he worked WITH Reagan.
Now, some holes can be punched into all three stories, but it is telling the difference. And while we’re at it - Rush’s comparisons with Santorum to Reagan on social policies? Really? Now I’m not as old as Rush, but I remember Reagan Carter pretty well. I don’t remember much of anything about the social issues being an issue, even though we knew where Reagan stood.
Lost me by lumping Reagan with Obama at the end.
No question Reagan and Romney are very different. Likewise Carter and Obama.
I lived through Carter and there was a sense he was an embarrassment. I think people fear and dislike Obama much more.
Reagan started out with the conservative base and had to convince moderates he wasn’t a threatening right winger.
Romney starts with moderate respect and has to energize the conservatives.
I think the American people cannot wait to vote Obama out of office.
Reagan’s positions on the issues throughout his political life were clear and unambiguous.
Romney, not so much.
C’mon man!
He’s a populist through and through. How many other politicians know that Michigan trees are all the right height?
I met Reagan never met Romney but he is still no Reagan !!!!!!!
Given the homosexual push by the judiciary, I’m not sure Reagan would not support the marriage ammenment. He certainly had no qualms about an outright ban on them in the military: “We ask, DON’T join” worked quite well. Aside from that, this was an excellent article.
So, the man, Romney, who has done the following:
1. Supported Gay Adoption
2. Supported Gay Marriage
3. Wholeheartedly supported Abortion.
4. Proclaimed he was not a Reagan Conservative.
5. Supports Global Warming
6. Implemented a form of Socialized Medicine with RomneyCare with it’s Individual Mandate
7. Doesn’t like nore understand the concept of limited Government.
8. Is a continual and serial liar.
This total creep is like Reagan?
TO arrive at that conclusion the writers of this drivel would have to throw out everything he did as Governor and 95% of everything else.
“THIS was a great man.”
Yes, and the GOP nomenklatura detested him, and set about to dismantle all he had accomplished beginning on January 20, 1989. Here we are. There is no option but to defeat the machine again, inch by bloody inch.
Huh?
