Now would be a good time for Shrub release Reagan's Presidential Papers

[SilasSoule]

Yes, the same ones that he classified a few years ago by executive order right before they were to made public. The release of the records would validate the Repubs (and the media's)adoration bordering on diety-like worship of the man. The records will also be an archival treasure chest that will be appended into the historical record. It could well clear up long asked questions like How Saddam got his hands on the technology and materials to develop WMD's and how Osama ... etc....

1. He won't do it...

his Dad is probably also in those papers.

4. But then the historical record will be incomplete on Reagan Legacy

So all the nonsop 24/7 coverage of his legacy is speculation and opionion?

2. Yes, would be a good time indeed!

This adminstration has long advocated an idea of 'if you've got nothing to hide, then show everything'. And, of course, everyone knows that a great leader leads by example......an excellent idea!!!

3. I agree that would be a good way to arrive at a fair account of his legacy

But you'll have to put somebody else in the White House to make it happen. The real President Bush's records are due for release in 2005 under the Presidential Records Act, but the mighty stroke of his son's pen can prevent that...if we don't stop him.
