The Newter conveniently calls upon the canonized saint of the Church of the One Percent to sanctify his candidacy. He is pandering to the myth that his patron saint made everything sweet forever. However, some of us political skeptics remember that Saint Ronnie’s rule resulted in the tax structure we “enjoy” now.
Hey, it was NEWT who proclaimed he’s the “REagan Republican” and not that “liberal from Michigan”!! Newt is the creep who makes the ’toon accurate, even if nearly as gross as Newt actually IS!
Lamda, YOU mean from $900 billion in national debt to $12.6 TRILLION under those “wonderful” policies. Soviet collapse had as much to do with Reagan as did the rotation of the Earth, nada.
Lamda, if you consider “turn around” going back down a deep dark hole and cesspool of debt? I guess that’s correct. Unemployment is down to 8.3 % after "W"s actions ran it up over 10%. YEs, they do “manipulate” unemployment, as when REAGAN for the first time ever counted the military as “employed” in order to make his stats improve.
I don’t “slap” people, but have shot some, kicked a few, please check your testicles.
Ironically Reagen was responsible for the largest amount of tax increases in history. By the end of his presidency taxes were higher than at the start.
After his cut-tax plan failed. Unfortunately he passed a bill put forth by who other then our dear friend newt which deregulated banks and stock exchange.After his presidency many Americans were quite zealous of what they saw was when he cut taxes at start.
As a result the republican party shifted far right and the democrats were then portrayed as going left so they to turned right.
Wrong! Reagan is a god, so he cannot die as long as people worship him! His 101st birthday is tomorrow. Didn’t anyone see him at the Superbowl last year on his 100th birthday? He was rooting for the Los Angeles Rams and sitting next to Caligula.

Extremely poor taste — even for a liberal.

Don’t worry, matt. Reagan’s not in Hell. He doesn’t exist anymore.

Someone had to break in and stop him from spinning.

Did Uncle Ronnie Raygun have the opposition President Obama faces every day for the past 3 years? NO, he did not.

It’s called Reaganomics, a disease from which I never recovered.
