Gulp! They're All "Reagan Republicans" Now.
Now I'm finally starting to believe the tide may indeed be turning.

They're identifying themselves as "Reagan Republicans" again.

2. And at the end of Reagans second term, that was nothing to be proud of.
They (Republicans) just keep re-writing history and making their own reality.

7. Very Orwellian, I must say
What does Reagan Republican mean? You sell military equipment to terrorists, praise Nazi war dead, piss youself, forget who you are and then die?

8. Right
Am I the only one who does not feel all super-apologetic and forget all the horrible things he did in his two terms? Funny how when someone dies, everyone rewrites history and makes the person into some kind of saint.

Not him, not here. Not ever.

:grr:

14. I still hate Reagan, too. I have not forgotten how casually he
pulled the Iran=Contra stuff, screwed Jimmy Carter with those hostages, etc. He was a jerk. I have no idea why people liked him as President.

3. And I'm a Clinton Democrat
Or maybe a McGovern Democrat. Or a Carter Democrat. Or a Kennedy Democrat. Or just a plain old Democrat.

So, not only has fear come to the Republican party, but also shame. Worldly savio(u)rs aren't what they used to be, are they?

--p!

10. It also means that they are not "Bush Republicans" somehow.
Now all of a sudden, it's Bush's War. They had nothing to do with it. It's Bush's personally. LOL

12. Homelessness-making racist money worshippers?
Now that's something identify oneself as. Reagan was a piece of shit that would already be in prison if he hadn't gotten alzheimers in his second term.
