Or make a deal with Iran to hold American hostages for an additional month, until the day he took the oath, to make him look good. THAT would be looked down on even by Republicans... I'm sure.

Good thing that never happened.

The Democrats would be more dispicable than even I know is possible if they did that.
 
Other... Ronald Reagan.
 
This was a trick question to leave george bush off of it which he would have won hands down. Therefore I will not even vote.

Since only fools believe Reagan did that, because he didn't, what people say about it only shows them for what they are.

Like they also believe he didn't trade arms to terrorists? Fools all of them.

You are aware that:

George Bush (the second one) wasn't president in the Twentieth Century, right?

And, currently George Bush is not the worst president of the Twenty First Century, either.

He didn't trade arms to terrorists, his underlings traded obsolete missiles to get funds to aid the Nicaraguan freedom fighters overthrow the socialist Sandinistas.

Tell us how many people those obsolete missiles killed, okay?

No, it wasn't tricky at all.

Then again, I was smart enough to note vote for Obama. Maybe people who are fooled easily enough to vote for con-man like that find all sorts of things incredibly complicated. Seems likely enough, since they're still ignorant enough to continue supporting their con-man.
 
Ahhh, the Reagan legacy........

The presidency of Ronald Reagan in the United States was marked by multiple scandals, resulting in the investigation, indictment, or conviction of 138 administration officials, the largest number for any president to date.[1] The most well known of these scandals, the Iran-Contra affair, involved a plan whereby weapons were sold to Iran and the profits diverted to fund the Nicaraguan Contras, in violation of U.S. and international law.

The HUD rigging scandal consisted of Department of Housing and Urban Development Secretary Samuel Pierce and his associates rigging low income housing bids to favor Republican contributors to Reagan's campaign as well as rewarding Republican lobbyists such as James G. Watt a former Secretary of the Interior. [2] Sixteen convictions were eventually handed down.[3]

In the Sewergate scandal, officials at the EPA were found guilty of using money from Superfund to enhance the election prospects of local politicians aligned with the administration.

The Lobbying scandal involved Reagan's Chief of Staff Michael Deaver and Reagan's Press Secretary Lyn Nofziger both being charged with lobbying improprieties.

The EPA scandal occurred when the head of the EPA Rita Lavelle was found in Contempt of Congress and her assistant Rita Lavelle was convicted of perjury. It involving channeling of EPA funds to projects which aided local Republican politicans.

The Inslaw Affair involved Deputy Attorney General D. Lowell Jensen and C. Madison Brewer both being held in Contempt of Congress for alleged theft of software and services from the Inslaw Corporation.

Savings and loan crisis in which 747 institutions failed and had to be rescued with $160,000,000,000 of taxpayer monies

As if the Constitution means anything to you people.

Also, read the part of the Constitution where it says the Executive branch sets foreign policy.

And don't forget to cite the part of the Constitution violated by Reagan when his underlings, without his knowledge or consent, sold arms to Iran, okay?

Yes, it was plagued by multiple made up media frenzies.....

....care to name the only president in the Twentieth Century to be impeached? Care to list all of his scandals, plus his wife's?

Yes, that's what happens with an honest justice system.

Imagine what would have happened if the Janet Bull Dyke Baby Killing Jello Reno had been impeached for her mishandling of the assualt on the Branch Davidians and a man respecting the law had taken it's place.

Ooooo! Reagan participated in this how?

(yawn)

Read up on your hero Clinton the Rapist President, Perjurer and Crook.

Reagan's successes included:

Controlling inflation.

22 million new jobs created. (not "saved or created", a Messianic Meaninglessness).

Fall of the Berlin Wall

First START treaty.

Fall of the Soviet Union, properly known at the Evil Empire, without a major war.

Naming the Evil Empire.

Initiated missile defense researches.

Etc etc etc.

Ah, well, white rats are are common.

I mean, you're claiming to not be "people", so what else are you?

For some reason you "rats", because you're racist, feel that every one who says "you people" are referring to blacks. I've no idea what mental illness causes this, but I can assure you that I've seen white people and brown people, and even very very dark brown people who are mistakenly referred to as "black", so I've no idea why any fool would think the term "you people" refers only to these so-called "blacks".
