Who helped elect Reagan and the Bushies?

[RobertEarl]

Why it was moderate Democrats, that's who.

We call them Reagan Democrats.

Today's moderates of both parties are people who think we have too many environmental regulations.

What other stupid ideas do moderates have that are holding back our country? Discuss.

1. This is why the Democratic Party will not support liberal ideology anytime soon.

The GOP platform is too extreme, so the Reagan Democrats have come "home," and they brought the free market, supply-side stink with them.

2. The rats are fleeing the sinking ship

It has always been obvious that if the liberal message ever got a fair and balanced hearing in the press, that America would leap to make the progress inherent in true liberalism.

Besides allowing the truth to come forth, the enemies of progress also have infiltrated the party of liberalism, the Democrats, buying as many politicians as they could. Those they couldn't buy they concocted schemes to give them a bad name using the press which they own.

3. Bipartisanship is a stupid idea. Especially when the other party are psycho's and

Flat Earthers.

4. We must compromise, so sayeth the moderates!

When what we should be doing is steamrolling them.

Everyone you talk to says government is lacking something. Well that something lacking is because there are too many moderates who are compromising with the TBag people!

5. Yup, moderates will say "it's not left vs right, we must work together", to which I say

"You're right, it's not left vs right, it's sane vs insane. And we won't stoop down to their level and become monsters".

7. Thinking unions are bad and that rich people create jobs.

I call them low information voters.

They also often buy big trucks and SUVs and don't understand the impact of consumerism.

9. "America Held Hostage! Day nine million! with Ted Koppel!" elected Reagan.

Carter preferred living hostages to the long bloody pointless war that all the yahoos wanted -- and that cost him the presidency

10. The botched rescue attempt absolutely buried Carter

[struggle4progress]

11. The helicopters developed mechanical problems, and the rescue was aborted. As they left

their staging area, two aircraft collided, killing eight service members

Carter had made the proper decision, calling off the operation well before it got anywhere near the intended hot spot, in accordance with the original cautious plan and consistent with professional military advice at the time: it was simply nasty politics then, and remains nasty politics even today, to blame him for that tragic collision

12. So many from which to choose... Here's one of the biggies,

that there is such a thing as acceptable inequality, that stacking the deck is OK as long as it doesn't appear to be too stacked..
