Ben, for heaven’s sake, you don’t understand the lead up to World Wars I and II? Come on guy. Are you saying Reagan was an idiot because he believed in peace through strength. Come on...

Reagan sure woudn’t have gone to war over Crimea or Ukraine, that’s for sure. How do I know? Crimea and Ukraine were under Russia’s control the whole time Reagan was president. Reagan didn’t go to war against Russia - or any other country (and please dont call the Grenada weekend rescue operation a “war”).

In contrast, Obama has had a long war going - Afghanistan - for his whole administration He also went to war against Libya. And he wanted to go to war against Syria. But the war hawks on FR still think he hasn’t started enough wars.

How I long for Reagan’s time, when being conservative didn’t mean being in favor of endless foreign wars.
