Don't believe me?Mr.Reagan is personally responsible for most of all our major problems today.Let's start at the beginning...
One of the biggest myths about Ronald Reagan was that he ended communism.This is like saying FDR won WWII...but if he only had defeated Germany and then let Japan easily off the hook.While America is now a trading partner with Russia,and we are easily kicking Cuba's communist butt,China's communist led government is sending America a collective bill for almost a trillion dollars.The same dollar that is now at an all time low in Europe,Japan and elsewhere.I am very happy for the people of the United Germany,Poland and the rest of the eastern block....but....
The two reasons that most people give for Reagan causing the downfall of the U.S.S.R. are: (1)the escalation of the Star Wars weapons race,and (2)the United States secretly giving the Afghanistans missile launchers.These two acts,both critics and admirers alike,believed,turned the tide of U.S.S.R. domination.Yes,Reagan's illegal and corrupt practices did nickle and dime the U.S.S.R. out of existence....But...The deeper effects-in America-of Reagan's lousy policies are just now beginning to to be realized.We are now starting to lose our moral,social,and economical powers in what some economists are calling the twilight of America.
Thanks,Ronald Reagan.
Reagan's often illegal actions began before he was even president.During the high-point of the 'Iranian Hostage Crisis',presidential candidate Ronald Reagan virtually hog tied President Jimmy Carter's hands by stating that 'He' would never negotiate with terrorists'.In a close presidential race,with half the country rooting for the other guy,it would have been political suicide for Jimmy Carter to have appeared weak on this issue.
Little did he know that the hostages not being released would probably cost him the election.
But this was no accident.Reagan lied.Someone from within his administration-most people believe either Donald Rumsfeld or George H.W. Bush-negotiated with Iran.They made an arms deal with Iran on the order that America would sell them guns if they(the Iranians) did not release the American hostages until AFTER Ronald Reagan was sworn in as president...which is what happened.
I think that it is despicable that our fellow Americans were held even a second longer then they had to be.Yet they were held from the November election until Ronald Wilson Reagan came into office in January!That is not only shameful:it is criminal!
But wait!There is more.His administration then took this Iranian money and unconstitutionally gave it to the Contra rebels of Nicaragua.
Let's see,breakers of the law,liars..and this is the same bunch of thugs that are running the place today.Great prez cred so far-top notch guy.
This,in my humble opinion,is Ronald Reagan's legacy:He created modern terrorism.His administration dealt secretly with terrorists,thus,giving terrorists the true idea that the means of terror could get them what they wanted.You must remember that he also dealt with Saddam Hussein by selling him American made weapons of mass destruction.And you also should take note that after arming the Afghan people,Mr.Reagan did not supply any money back into the Afghanistan infrastructure,leaving the young men with no jobs,no means to survive...just guns and an angry attitude against western authorities.
Talk about creating perfect conditions for a religious jihad.Thanks for that,Ron.
Another thing we can thank President Reagan for is the illegal immigrant problem.Wait,stay with me,here.Ask yourself,where is the one place in the blue collar work place where there is never-ever-any illegal immigrants working?
Union shops.
Who broke the unions?
Ronald Wilson Reagan.
Mr.Reagan turned what was once one of the most positive things about America:that it had the highest standard of living in the world,into a negative.Of course,he didn't word it that way.He simply implied that union workers were overpaid and under worked.
And then he put his money where his mouth was.He broke the air traffic controller's union,changed labor laws(all against union rights),and replaced the striking workers.The days of having the highest standard of living came to a swift and sudden close.Illegal labor was not far behind.
All of this may have been perfectly understandable if Mr.Reagan's goal was for America to compete more efficiently in the world market place.Mr.Reagan did not care one iota about America.Mr.Reagan cared about big business...and only about big business.
In fact,Ronald Reagan was anti-American.His speeches,his rhetoric made this point perfectly clear.Of course he didn't say it that way.His mantra,'Let's keep big government off big business' back',explains how he felt perfectly.
Personally,I love not only my country,but my government."I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.And to the republic for which it stands..."
What he really was saying was this,"If we get rid of the laws that make wrong actions by big business illegal,then these actions will no longer be illegal.
Duh.
Can you say Enron?Can you say Gen Corp?These are just two examples of ol' Ronnie's end product.
Another end product was putting these 'international' corporations' interests above and before America's interests.Lost taxes.Lost revenue.Lost jobs.No bid government contracts.Leverage buyouts.Hell,they even made it so that a company would not even have to pay their fines.The company fines were contract guaranteed to be paid by us:the government paid these fines with our tax dollars.
Thus began the Ronald Reagan shell game.Or,you could call it what the current Bush administration has made into... it's true art form:doublespeak.
White man speaks with fork tongue.
Thus,of course,Ronald Reagan would speak out against higher taxes,and sing the praises of huge tax cuts...whom better to be stealing dollars from the tax dollar cookie jar than someone that was so anti tax?How about another picnic basket,Boo Boo?
The-still not near to totally functioning today-$tar War$ system did not come cheap.It bankrupted the U.S.S.R., after all. Somebody was getting rich some how.Another break for big business... corporate welfare!
Sssh,don't tell.
Sadly,I've saved the worst for last.The unethical manipulation of his constituents.The people that vote for you are supposed to be on your side...
...why manipulate them?Well...OK,that's a no brainer-just part of the shell game.If you preach holiness,holy religious people are going to perceive you,or at the very least,hope you are what you preach.That is the lesson that Ronald Wilson Reagan has taught the conservative party...the 'unrighteous'right.Steal from them,trick them into believing that you are for God,and you can get away with almost anything.
Ronald Reagan deceived America on his Christian leanings.Nancy and he ran their lives not through the hope and faith in Jesus and God,but in astrology.They consulted an astrologer daily!They would change their plans if this astrologer told them it was not safe to travel,to do(or not to do)this or that.
I am not talking the daily horoscope,but daily readings of the stars and the cards.This is a major Christian no-no.There are more readings and references against this in the Bible then to either abortion or being gay.
This is putting your faith in something other than God!This was a stoning to death sin in the Old Testament!This is blasphemy!And he did it daily!He did not repent.Did not ask for forgiveness.Did not turn to God.
Yet,Ronald Wilson Reagan(by the way,his name does add up to 666)pretended to lead the Christian right flock.This is,in my opinion,his damnest sin.While preaching holiness,he wasn't.
He was a divider.Using hate terms,like,'Liberal' to preach hatred of our American brother and sisters.This is the direct reason there is the Red state hatred for the blue.Why Hillary is hated so much,and untrue e-mails are sent Carl Rove style against Obama.Robbed elections.Unethical secret transactions.
Thanks to Ronald Reagan,a certain segment of politicians now believe in misleading rather then leading;hatred rather then unity;stealing rather then buying.
Greatest president ever!?!
Hell NO!
I don't think so.
