Sounding and Acting Like Reagan

[NJCardFan]

We are being fed a shit sandwich! Vote FOR Romney? Hell no! Ryan is a different story.

Translation: "I'm going to vote with my principles and if this means another 4 years of Obama then meh."

Reagan became President 30 years ago. He raised taxes as part of his fiscal plan and gave weapons to terrorists. Attacks by terrorists did not decrease during his tenure. American/western hostages were held in Lebanon, some of whom were killed, and Reagan cut and run from Beiruit after hundreds of our Marines were killed when terrorists bombed their barracks.


So, I guess if Romney looks Reaganesque, it's not that bad of a thing for Obama.

He may have raised some taxes but cut many others, we were forced out of Lebanon by caterwauling dems and when we left we shelled Syrian positions with battleship fire.

He gave/sold weapons to Iran, and used the money to fund drug dealers/nun murderers in Nicaragua. Iran sponsored the terrorists who blew up our Marines. After the bombing of the Marine barracks, Reagan cut and run. You can blame the democrats in congress all you want, but they are not the ones who sold weapons to a terrorist nation. His administration did what they did to get around congress.



Reagan made plenty of mistakes. Most Presidents do, even those who get deified by their supporters.

Obama sold weapons to Mexico. I think maybe HE'S the Reaganesque one. (according to some)

Actually Reagan sold new weapons to Israel. Israel's old stock went to Nicaraguan Contras. The Contra's were Choir boys compared to the Sandinista rebels they were battling. Take it from someone that was there in Honduras.

No, but there were repercussions...Reagen bombed Libya and Qaddafi's adopted daughter became a casualty when the bombs "accidentally" hit their house. Thousands were injured, including his son. I'm not advocating for the murder of children, but those were the stakes back then when Americans were targeted. That was the result of a 1986 bombing of a disco in Berlin that was commonly frequented by US soldiers, killing nearly 80 americans. We haven't heard a peep from Libya till Retardo went on his apology tour of the Middle East who apologized after an American Embassy was hit, making us the laughing stock of the world.
