So where is Mike Reagan defending his father from Newt's past criticisms of Ronald Reagan ?

There is a video from 1986 of Newt on the house floor in Congress when he publicly criticized the Reagan administration and saying that the Reagan administration has failed , will fail, and will continue to fail.

I wasn’t a Reagan fan, but he couldn’t be worse than Carter. I had no respect for him until he fired the air traffic controllers for their illegal strike. Then I took a second look at him. He was good, but no saint. so what if Gingrich didn’t care for him too much...

In your redundant haste to disparage Newt, you've overlooked the facts. Keep up, please! The video of Newt that you mention does NOT criticize Reagan and, in fact, shows praise for Reagan. This has been proven by Newt's own former Foreign Policy aide, Chris Scheve, who poured through the entire text of that speech.

You can actually read about it here.

Do you work for the Romeny or Santorum campaign?

Michael Reagan endorsed Newt and your still pushing a debunked tall tail about what Newt really said.

Someone actually took the time to go find the entire speech. As Reagan said, "Trust but verify."

You might want to start looking more deeply at Santorum.

You might want to start looking more critically at Santorum.

Better to be social justice Rick or Mittens than to dismantle the Left’s social power structure in the US government as Newt was speaking of, and replace it with a constitutional doctrine and structure.

Reagan and many libertarian conservatives did not quite get that Liberals (social marxists) are embedded in the government and need to be evacuated (defunded and replaced) because they have total power over society’s institutions which always leads back to socialism and denies the public knowledge and institutions of constitutional freedom. No vacume will be left unfilled. Defunding the left and not replacing it with a constitutional, individual liberity social doctrine is stupid because nothingness will not maintain space.
