"Why Ronald Reagan was a great president, " by Boortz
"Do you know what Ronald Reagan did in his first cabinet meeting? He walked in and said 'I hate taxes, I hate inflation, and I hate communism. Now do something about it.' Then, he walked out."

OH YEA, BOORTZ, THAT'S QUITE A PRESIDENT WE HAD THERE! WHAT A TOUGH GUY!

Then what did he do, go take his daily after-breakfast nap?

4. Why Reagan was a good president...
He cut taxes for the rich while increasing regressive taxes... (He started taxing social security benefits, raised payroll taxes, did gas tax, all things to benefit the wealthy while shifting the burden down to the poor and middle class)

He supported all the central and south american generals who killed many innocent people...

He funded Bin Laden in his fight against the soviets...

He sold arms to States that sponsor terrorism and then lied and said he didn't...

Oh wait these are all reasons why he was a terrible president and a really bad thing that happened to America. I am proud that Minnesota voted against him in his reelection (along with DC).

The rest of the voters in this country were fools (of course I was too young then to even know what was going on).

10. War Criminal

"Jabber says the Reagan administration never seriously tried to stop Iraq using chemical weapons. "Everything we did was checked with America," he said. "They knew our policy was to use chemical weapons on the Iranian army when they entered our territory. We told them that and they continued to help us."

22. You sound like someone who isn't here to discuss anything.
Your words are taunting and inflammatory. That isn't the way to discuss anything. If you really wanted to discuss something you would provide reasons or proof to support your opposing viewpoint. Instead you attack and call names. By the way Franken is more than willing to debate facts. Of course without any you probably wouldn't want to try it.
