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.
He belongs on Mt. Rushmore.
You guys have to suck it up. Reagan's greatness is why he's still being discussed to this day. It further reflects itself in the pathetic consternation (whining) of the left. Now that's a legacy. As presidents go, he is a giant among midgets and indeed history has recognized this. In the unlikely event that oppressive leftist succeed, he will be vilified - but only then.Hardly. How ironic that he died from a disease that so many others died from...yet many of those died homeless because of him.
Sorry, you don't get on Mt. Rushmore with that pathetic legacy.

I don't think he was a good president, as you suggest. I think he was a great president and I really couldn't care less what you think. Left-wing whining is not going to change Reagan's legacy. In fact I quite enjoy it and it only serves to build his stature.Suck it up!? And your conclusion makes no sense! We still talk about Hitler and he was far from great. You are bandwagoning for Reagan which is worse than thinking he was actually a good president.

what idiocy-most homeless people are nuts-not Reagan's fault
Typical righty response. Let's revise history and while we are at it, let's blame the victims...
Thanks for playing.
I Left-wing whining is not going to change Reagan's legacy..
Nice evasion-I want you to prove your claim about Reagan.

the federal government should not be in a position to have an affect upon educationIt's well know that RR's policies led to a virtual draining of mental institutions. Try to keep up. Not only that, he was no friend to education either. Never mind his economic policies are still haunting us now.
