The Downside of Impeachment

[Pat Mustard]

Reagan was right in taking down the USSR. But that is about it.

Despite the mythology Reagan was only peripheral to the USSR's collapse. It fell because it could no longer keep its Eastern European satellites in line (in fact the rot started when Yugoslavia &China went their own ways in the 70s), and through implementing the right medicine (the Soviet part of USSR through Glasnost & Perestroika) too late to help.

Reagan's biggest achievement was making the US buget as lopsided as the USSRs towards weapons.

Re- elected???


Uh..... 


He hasn't been elected President yet - so strictly speaking he can only be elected president.....


....

And when was the last time the ( R )s ever voted for charisma?

Nixon? Ford? Bush I or II?


It seems they LIKE vanilla....



Heh

I dunno, dude.  I'd say that both Reagan and Bush Jr. had a kind of charisma.  Hillary, Gore-- not so much.  I guess it's subjective.

Now to be straight, I'm a democrat by far.  But even I wouldn't vote for a suit-pants-wearing lizard.

Reagan yes, Shrub no. If you need daddy's hand picked Supreme Court cronies to stage a coup on your behalf after losing an election, one thing is guaranteed; your charisma is lacking.
