Reagan's Birthday
Celebrate Reagan's Birthday today, Feburary 6, by discussing his accomplishments and faults.

Yes, even you Europeans owe him it. Remember the Berlin Wall?

Maybe some of the pups around here would prefer if the Soviet Union and the Berlin Wall were still going concerns.

Happy Birthday, Ronnie.

Shouldn't you be lobbying for tax cuts for the rich, or the murder of innocents or something?

Belated congrats and to the Old Gipper on his 92nd birthday. I hope he is relatively well these days.

We Europeans especially have a lot to thank him for.

Reagan

He jacked up the military to an insane degree, wasted all kinds of money, started all kinds of wars and invaded all kinds of countries, lied to Congress, and did all kinds of ****ed up ****.

Reagan has convincingly shown that to be a successful president you don't need to be well educated. Bush II is another example of this kind.

Nothing compared to one who seemed like he had alzheimers DURING his Presidency (Bubba Clinton) had the same sucess.
