A Reagan only comes around every two or three hundred years. You and I were lucky enough to live in that time.
Reagan was to the USA as Cincinnatus was to the roman republic.
In the meantime, we have to do what we can with what we have.
We must use the tools God has given us. Abraham Lincoln
Sadly must agree on that. At the same time I intend to hold them fully accountable regardless of the (R) or (D) after their name.
Bush talks tough early in the day then chooses to honor the worst president in US history, just when I think Bush is starting to do the right thing he again demonstrates a disregard for our country and Constitution.
That is rather harsh. First of all, this was scheduled before he spoke today. Probably long before. There are only 43 Presidents in the history of our country so even the worst President was still only one of 43. Not too bad really. But President Clinton honored President Reagan during his Presidency when he named a building in D.C. This is something that all Presidents do. We may have a Democrat President naming a building for GW someday. Do we want DU to complain and be nasty about that?
About a year ago the Harvard Business Journal ran a feature on leaders who intimidate. LBJ would insist that his staff come into the john and discuss official business while he sat on the throne taking care of his bodily functions. One time out in the middle of Texas LBJ made his chauffeur pull over so that he could relieve himself. While the Secret Service agent held the door LBJ pissed on the agents shoe and when the agent said something LBJ said I know. He did it on purpose just to demonstrate his power. As for being a disgusting piece of humanity LBJ tops even Clinton or Carter. It might be fitting that the building named for LBJ is for an unconstitutional department, it demonstrates the same kind of contempt for our government that LBJ showed.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm . . . For some reason, I didn't notice all of the perpetually disgruntled, Bush-bashers on yesterday's thread announcing that our "yankee" president had similarly honored RUSH LIMBAUGH'S father -- just exchange the 'school house' for a 'post office'!
Again, the mean-spirited, uninformed, hyperbolic, adolescent behavior on FR has become verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry OLD!
He was an imperfect man in a very difficult time trying to do the best the could.
Wow! It is amazing what you learn on this awesome site. I learn more here than any university for sure!

I have voted for him four times.
If that is not enough I don't know what will be satisfactory.
Absolutely true. Say it loud.
Ahahahahahaha! That was a real knee slapper!!!!!!
Here's the thing - I'll criticize anyone who abuses the Constitution or Bill of Rights, regardless the initial after their name or the church they attend.
Fortunately that doesn't make me a hypocrite.
It's what Presidents do. Nothing to see here folks.
Precisely.
. . . maybe it just makes you a pompous _ _ _ (fill in the blanks)!
When talking about the civil rights bill, didn't LBJ say that once the demonRats signed the bill they would have the (N word) vote for the next 100 years?
LOL ok.
No less accurate I see.
