Yeah, we already know about liberal whining. If you're going to bitch, you might at least you might try to be accurate about it. He left the presidency with a much better country and world, but perhaps his greatest accomplishment was rendering the left impotent for a generation. Hopefully there is another 'Reagan' waiting in the wings. We could certainly use a leader of his caliber today.Do you really want me to take that subjective material as a reason for why he was a great president? So he made us feel good! That's great and all but the repercussions of his presidency were not as delightful as you say they are. He did nothing to do with the Middle Eastern problems which were already arising in this period. In contrast, he funded the problems! Iran was and still is goin AWOL, Afghanistan became terrorist led because of him, Saddam magically got his hands on chemical weapons and a lot of money with Reagan. I don't understand how you can see him as a great president because he smiled and made you feel good. Ivan say at least he wasn't Carter.
Anyway, the drivel is pointless. History has judged Reagan and no amount of revision is going to change his legacy.
