12. Who caused half our problems today?
It was the Reagan administration who helped supply Iraq with chemical weapons agents and sent its envoy, Don Rumsfeld, to meet with Saddam. It was Reagan that aided terrorists in Iran, Nicaragua and supported cruel dictatorships in the name of fighting communism. We are reaping today what Reagan sowed in the 80's.

And the simple truth is that Gorbechev had far more to do with the fall of Communism than anything Reagan did. It probably would have happened no matter who had been in the White House during the 80's.

Reagan was evil, and the main difference is that Reagan was good at acting like a President while Bush is not.
