This is what I am waiting for, when Ronald Reagan dies, I want to hear some ultra-liberals praise him. (I don't think it will happen...)

It already has. Tip O'Neill used to speak highly of Reagan. Hell he used to play cards with him on an almost weekly basis. Chris Matthews speaks highly of him. I've heard more and more Dems say positive things about Reagan, especially in terms of foreign policy. To hear it though, you have to turn off the ultra sensitive paranoid blinders.

Well, excuse me for being so paranoid. Let's wait and see what happens. Seems to me when the US House wanted to send birthday greetings to President Reagan a couple of years ago for his 90th birthday, many dem members wouldn't. And weren't reprimanded or even called on it.

Sage advice, unfortunately too few on this thread seem to be heeding it.

Can you quote him? In his book, Tip O'Neill said that the election of Ronald Reagan was a "sinful." Tip O'Neill despised Ronald Reagan even if he might have found him personally amusing. Reagan rode herd over the Congress in his first term, and O'Neill was powerless to do anything about it. Reagan was also proved right in his "peace through strength" foreign policy, and proved the utter stupidity and anti-Americanism of O'Neill's "peace through concession" strategy in dealing with te Soviets.
