President Reagan Died Today at 93

On some points though, i believe that reagan had nothing to do with alot of things his administation did. He is kind of like a puppet, his advisors wrote him the script on what to say, and he delievered like a great actor. I believe that alot of the shit that went on wouldnt of led to him, but his advisors had basically controlled everything.

I disagree only because the actions of the man held too many compromises to the other side to get the goals which he set forth.

A little bit of irony for you.. Reagan began his career as a democrat..
By the 60s he was the foremost promoter of smaller govt, before he ever was elected for his first position even.

i know he was democrat, many say it was his wife who turned him into a republican. i dont know why you say irony for me, im not a democrat, or republican, Independent for me.

say irony for me, im not a democrat, or republican, Independent for me.

It's an expression.. It really has nothing to do with you particular and refers to you as the group(another valid meaning of the word you).

Edit- man that is hard to explain. Think of you as having to forms. One which refers to a single person who you are talking to. The other talking to everyone you are talking too.

For Gods sake please show a little more respect. No more Anti-Reagan posts on this thread please.

Political comments have their own forum now so please post those in there instead of here.

[blah]

No ones anti reagan jabba, we are just talking about it in a calm debate. Jabba you must remember this site is a huge family, unlike other car sites were fighting and bitching runs rampant, we all get along but still can commence in non-heated arguments, no one goes offline thinking im gonna kill that bitch. This is all thanks to you though.

i dont think i can say much that hasnt already been said, at the same time, not enough can be said. President Reagan was the first president i knew in my lifetime, and also the most influential man who lived since FDR IMHO. when i was young, it seemed like he would be president forever, and i didnt realize the effect he had until years later. the world changed for the better because of his beliefes. when he spoke, the world listened; weather it was soviet premier, or Arab constituents (most powerful camp david accord sent ripples in the mid-east, and longest ever peace between the factions, and nations) in some ways, i felt as if i knew him like a grandfather, but i dont know why. i


RIP President Ronald Reagan
