A great President he was, Richard Nixon 2nd place.

He was like the White Obama with a drug fetish... growing a massive intrusive government, bombing brown people, Amnesty for illegals and had mouth breathing supporters who completely ignored that he did everything that was against the party platform.

Set the groundwork for every disaster that followed.

I feel like reagan was a GOOD communicator, but he's no Richard Sherman.

Michael Reagan: My dad might be too moderate for today’s GOP
posted at 8:08 pm on September 27, 2011 by Tina Korbe

As the desire to recruit New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie to run for president seems to have reached a fever pitch, I’ve found myself repeatedly wondering, “What’s so wrong with the candidates we have now?” In fact, at the end of the CNN/Tea Party Express debate a couple weeks ago, I tweeted it.

Yes, Perry was wrong on Gardasil. Yes, Mitt Romney was wrong on Romneycare. But either would be better than Obama. Virtually any of the GOP candidates would be!

Is it an issue of polish? Some say Romney has too much of it. Others are punishing Perry for appearing less than poised in last week’s debate. Have you ever tried to count the number of awkward pauses in a President Obama speech?

The point is not that we should “settle.” Like Michele Bachmann, I think Obama’s underwhelming presidency and the 2012 elections give us an unparalleled opportunity to pick a truly conservative president. The point is that we need to look at the candidates a little more holistically — and ask ourselves who will lead in a direction we want to follow. Who up on that stage is comfortable enough in his own skin to not worry about being a pleaser, to just be jovial, to set priorities, to have firm, principled convictions (evolved, perhaps, from past mistakes) and to hold to those convictions even after assuming the position of greatest influence in the nation?

For that’s the sort of leader Ronald Reagan was — and he didn’t necessarily have a flawless record. His son said as much on Fox News today:

Taken out of context

Todays Democrats are closer to Communism then ever before. Since Reagan left office the US has become United states of Europe.

I'm a left wing liberal myself, but I increase in appreciating RR more and more.
We really hated him here in Holland in the 80s.
But compared to the Bushes, he was miles above them.

Let's face it: he finally won the cold war. "Mr Gorbatchov, tear down that wall"

Guy was a getbigger, not many US presidents could get that title.

Great man. Made Americans proud to be American again. Had the guts to frame the battle against Communism in moral terms. Between good and evil. Rather than the Carter inspired "Detente" and coexistence Reagan believe evil, Communism, is to be actively fought and destroyed. He had a clear world view and a clear vision. And he was right. And he won.

"Here's my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose." - Ronald Reagan

Republicans would hate Ronald Reagan if he were to be President today.

He was more liberal than Mitt Romney.

LOL! You speaking for Republicans. I'm a Republican, Coach is a Republican. We revere Reagan.

I think you should just speak for your own lefty, socialist party.

Look at his record. He would be laughed out of the GOP today.

Lower taxes, smaller government, no tax payer funding for abortion, pro 2nd amendment, strong military... you continue to prove your colossal ignorance.

I agree. Reagan and Thatcher are what we need now. Here's to America's colors, the colors that never run and put the great back in Great Britain.

I miss them both.

Because with them, there's nothing gay about it. It's called a kilt laddie, because when you put one on you go out and kilt your enemies. Bagpipes are masculine. Skinflutes, not so much.

Aye.

Lincoln and FDR are two of the original big government, anti-constitutional neocons inline with GWB IMO.

x10000000

One turned the army on its own citizens causing more American deaths than all other wars combined. The other instituted price controls, wage controls, gold confiscation, a permanent state of emergency, 35% dollar devaluation, and rounded up Japanese Citizens into camps in clear violation of the Bill of Rights.

Both massively increased the power of the Federal branch against the Constitution's design under the excuse that "it was the only way to preserve it".

Horse shit. The Constitution was a contract and an experiment in protecting the rights of individuals against tyranny. It was never designed to be that tool of tyranny.

They are still making the last Fast and Furious movie so you can`t comment until they finish that one up. It may be the final one due to the death of Paul Walker. I think they did a good job investigating his death and resolved it. No idea why you and the Republicans keep crying like babies about some third tier movie.
