Comparing Bush43 to Reagan is wrong.

Ronald Reagan is the gold standard for conservatism. All should be compared to Reagan, the standard. Bush43, in what he accomplished, compares well.

Why? Well it's not because we are living in a conservative, originalist nirvana. It's because getting something done in this politically liberal country is so damn hard to do.

But to compare Reagan to "Bush43" in your view is wrong?

LOL! Sounds like political correctness to me.

It's not political correctness. It's abject fear of healthy respect of both men and positive evaluations of George W. Bush.

Reagan man becomes irrational if you do that, to the point where he is willing to give Reagan a black eye in a flailing attempt to defend him.

For starters, you've also been defending Rudy Giuliani`s liberal record as Mayor of NYCity, on conservative Free Republic for quite some time. Now, whether you will vote for Rudy or not, is still not clear.

You're looking for a confrontation with me. I'm NOT gonna give you total satisfaction. But I will answer two points you posted.

That's what I said and that's what I've told you before. Dubya has done fine on social issues, tax cuts and with appointment of justices. He's done okay in the WOT. Iraq is progressing. We shall see. But Bush43 is no Reagan. Period.

More importantly, comparing Rudy Giuliani to Ronald Reagan is an insult to the Reagan legacy. Rudy is a liberal. Reagan was a conservative.

Sounds like you can't tell the difference of right from wrong, good from great, and liberal from conservative. So be it.
