    Twilight Zone, anybody? If Rod Serling were alive, this could provide him some good material. :roflol:

    I don't know if I'd go so far as saying Reagan was the greatest ever, but he was far superior to anything we've had since. This nonsense that Reagan's policies caused businesses to immediately get shut down is pure hogwash.

    I say that although I believe he was the greatest of the 20th Century, not of all time. Washington and Lincoln can't be beat. Also because of a National Survey that one of the networks ran about the Greatest American and I think they were surprised when Reagan ended up on the top.

    The Greatest American

    1. Ronald Reagan
    2. Abraham Lincoln
    3. Martin Luther King, Jr.
    4. George Washington
    5. Benjamin Franklin
    6. George W. Bush
    7. Bill Clinton
    8. Elvis Presley
    9. Oprah Winfrey
    10. Franklin D. Roosevelt

    Reagan will go down in future history as using neoliberalism to hollow out America in the interest of the rich elites. A traitor to working americans and our middle class. And the friend to virtual states who have an allegiance to no nation.

    yep no matter what you post the reaganut worshippers cant handle pesky little facts like that only seeing what they WANT to see.then when they get frustrated and know they cannot refute those facts,they go into name calling every time knowing they have been taken to school.

    nonsense is this crap in this post.Like all reagan worshippers you blatantly ignored everything in that post.the ONLY thing you got right in your ramblings there is that each president since then has been more evil and corrupt than he was.

    Reagan is worshipped by the CIA controlled media because he was the grandfather of betraying middle class americans which every president since him has followed and expanded on.He got the ball rolling for the future destruction of america and thats WHY the CIA controlled media worships him to this day.

    Oh let me guess,you dont think the mainstream media is controlled by the CIA and congress never did an investigation into their activities in the 70's and discovered documents that they have plants in them as well right?:grin:

    twilight zone would be believing in the myth you have fallen for that he did not betray middle class americans.:roflol:

    Looks like I will have to take you to school how reagan betrayed the middle class as I have with all my posts throughout this thread as well.you are doing what he had done thoughout this whole thread playing dodgeball just like him.Like him,you did not bother reading any of the links i posted in my previous posts that took him to school that reagan betrayed the middle class.

    you reagan worshippers always debate like this,you post what you think to be true and never take the time to read an opposing view.Im glad you two were never my lawyers,you both would lose every case for me and get laughed out of the courtroom by the jury and judge.

    oh and go tell all the people i remember talking to back then who lost their jobs who came up to me saying-yeah thanks to reagan and his policys i no longer have a job.go tell all THOSE people his policys did not betray the middle class and go tell all the people back then who spoke about his policys betraying the middle class who gave interviews that their buisnesses got closed because of him that his policys did not cause them to lose jobs.:roflol:

    You reagan worshippers as always prove you only see what you WANT to see as always.congrats.

    I have posted links in the previous posts that you and the OP refuse to read proving you have no clue how to debate.

    oh and its no surprise you have fallen for that propaganda as well that reagan was a great president.I was just reading though one of the threads in the sports section and I see you are in denial that the cheatriots scandal is the biggest scandal in sports since the black sox scandal.No surprise you are in denial here that reagan betrayed the middle class familys the fact that you are in denial that a sport that is near and dear to you has now been tainted because of the cheatriots organization.

    if you are in denial on THAT,then it totally makes sense as well why you are in denial about reagan as well.Now I understand why the reagan worshippers cant be reasoned with and where they come up with these warped fantasys he was a great president. the same ones that think he was a great president,are the same ones who can deal with facts that deflategate is the worst scandal in sports history since the black sox scandal.


    my ignore list grows larger and larger by the moment.

    since you reagan worshippers ignore everything us reagan truthers post,then I will return the favor and put you on ignore as well since you both obviously have ME and other reagan truthers on ignore.

    Wow.....take a chill pill. :roll:

    I believe Reagan was an extremely strong president in a lot of ways.....from the economy to foreign affairs. I don't worship him nor believe he's the best ever and I stated that.

    Interesting that you bring up the Tom Brady/Patriots deflate-gate as some horrible and horrendous scandal. :roll: Much ado about nothing, if you ask me.

    back to whine and cry in defeat knowing you have been taken to school.lol

    i need to stop feeding you two especially since you reagan worshippers only see what you WANT to see as you both have proved thoughout this entire thread which again is no surprise since again reagan worshippers cant deal with facts that deflategate is the biggest scandal since the white sox scandal.

    In the President's first press conference he demonstrated his vast knowledge and intellect on all issue regarding foreign policy and domestic issues.

    Some of the subjects covered were, raising the debt ceiling, deficits, controlling inflation, federal hiring freezes, reducing travel costs, elimination of controls on oil production and marketing, elimination of the Council on Wage and Price Stability, 60 day freeze on new regulations.

    He took questions on reconciliation and resuming commerce with Iran, federal spending cuts, terrorism, the SALT II Treaty, Soviet expansionism, hostages in Viet Nam, Civil Rights and Affirmative Action, natural gas prices, the grain embargo against the Soviet Union, the serial killings of black children in Atlanta, Latin America and the Caribbean and the election in Jamaica, draft registration and strengthening the military, tax cuts and economic recovery, the Departments of Energy and Education, Dairy price controls, appointments of Hispanics, minorities and women, Federal Reserve, interest rates and reducing inflation rates.

    [video=youtube;dCl5FG9Kl7s]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCl5FG9Kl7s[/video]​

    Most people who criticize Reagan have never watched even so much as a single press conference of his. Liberals who don't like him won't take the time to read a book or watch a video of him. I have read many books on him, and I watch ever video I post from beginning to end. For those people who want to discuss the issues please do so from a position of knowledge instead of throwing out baseless ad hominem attacks and baseless charges. I would be glad to discuss it with you reasonably. Those who are just trolling and spouting hate will be totally ignored from this point on.

    Here is a history lesson and an economics lesson all in one. For those of you who say Reagan was a big spender, listen how he talks about cutting the size of government and balancing the budget. The same is true for today. We can cut the growth in federal spending and bring our spending into parity with revenues and begin to pay down the debt. This should be our number one priority.

    You can try anything you want, sport, and given the fact that you're a Troofer, it's obvious that you will. Guffaw.

    And you might want to do something about your Reagan Derangement Syndrome while you're at it, too.

    It's funny to hear a Troofer yammering about brainwashing. Buy more Thierry Meyssan books!! :lol:

    FYI, I was alive when Reagan was president - evidently you weren't since you're operating on the assumption that the only way to know anything about the man is from the media, whether it be the Lamestream or Crackpot Troofer/Moonbat variety where you get your propaganda.

    And based on my own personal observations concerning his role in hastening the demise of the USSR, turning around the malaise of the Carter years and breathing life into the contemporary conservative movement, I think it can be said he was a great (but not perfect) president.

    And that's why he has statues in Washington, London, Gdansk, Budapest and elsewhere and you don't. ;)

    Sorry. As a person that was assigned to intelligence covering Central America, covering Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua and El Salvador, I know much more than you'll ever know about the communists insurgencies and gorilla warfare conducted by communist rebels, funded by the USSR through Cuba through Nicaragua. Reagan's support for those countries ended the spread of communism to the Americas saving tens of thousands of lives. You are welcome.

    I'm not going to entertain leftist propaganda about alleged "death squads" who were mostly armed insurgence who didn't wear uniforms supplied and funded by communists.

    This sends a bad message. Try to assassinate a Republican President, you won't spend the rest of your life in jail.

    Sirhan Sirhan was crazier than John Hinckley. He's still in prison.

    It is the controlled right wing news media that spread the lie that communists were being stopped. Reagan is a traitor who supported fascists in their campaign of extermination against Native Americans. This was racist genocide of the type committed by Nazis in Europe.

    Okay, now that we all know the truth, why? Why did Reagan do this? What did he gain?

    You see, he didn't gain. If what you said were true, he's lost. He's lost a part of his legacy of being a good man and a good president. Which only goes to show that the idea that he supported fascists and wanted to exterminate Native Americans is a total bull(*)(*)(*)(*) lie.

    Don't be stupid, use a little common sense and logic.

    It hurt Reagan more than he let on though;His last last 2 years he really wasn't at the helm.It was globalist H.W. Bush.
    It's been the same thing ever since.
    Let's see:Bush,Clinton,Jr.Bush,Obama.
    They're all members of the same club.
    They've been exploiting us since Reagan got shot,basically.

    Not interested in commie propaganda.

    The whole story is BS.

    No names, no evidence, just accusations that sound more like a bad spy novel.

    Don't bother with more, not going to read. You are just spamming the thread with anti-Reagan crap that was brainwashed into your head from an early age. Sad.
