Although as Democrats we need to push that digital evidence every chance we get. No allowing these horrendous 4+ years to get swept under the rug or explained away with twisted logic. Rewritten history and propaganda is a Republican art form.

As for Reagan? That recent documentary (on Showtime, I think) was a very good reminder/tutorial of who Reagan was and how the myth of All Things Ronnie was propagated. For those who didn't live those years, it's worth a watch.
