Yep; and some want it to appear that way. Using Reagan to create a strawdog argument: Reagan Good/Bush Bad. And then from there they grow their anti Republican arguments via post and MSM and talk shows.

And if you bring up that Reagan had flawed policies, the same strawdoggers bring up a "moral attitude" as in "shame on you for speaking against Reagan -- Hey Ping List, over here -- we got a live Republican to crush between our posts!" And then they proceed to dissect the poster via ad hominem, and then declare their uber innocence that they are now discussing Bush's flaws, and the poster should just "get over it".

President Reagan WAS our President.

President Bush IS our sitting President.

There is a difference - but don't tell that to the anti-Bushies in here! Why they might write, yet one more time: STFU!

Amen.

Reagan was a good President, but even with his great electorial win in 1984, he had no coattails.

We lost the Senate in 82 (I believe) and did not get it back to 1988.

Moreover, I do not understand why people seem to be upset that Bush is dealing with Pelosi and Reid.

You have to respect their office, the person is irrelevant.

Like in the military, you respect the rank, not the man.
