Kumbaya kudos to BIN, on his non-venomous comment for “Mr. Folks.”

Sic Willie, you have apparently redeemed yourself…

You might want to take a closer look at the “gold standard of Ronald Reagan” and his supposed policies of “fiscal conservatism and individual liberty.” As for “fiscal conservatism, he never balanced the budget in his eight years in office, left office with the largest national debt of any president up to that time, and oversaw a 25% increase in the size of the federal gov’t. (adjusted for inflation.) He did lower taxes, but it mainly benefited the wealthy–the middle class largely stagnated economically in the 1980’s. As for protecting individual liberty, he backed a right-wing gov’t in El Salvador that employed death-squads, and was a strong supporter of Saddam Hussein in Iraq and Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan. His support of the Iran-Contra Affair was such a blatant attack on the laws of this country that it should have been an impeachable offense. Maybe to be a RINO, if you choose to use Reagan as the standard, appears from an historical standpoint to not be such a bad thing.

Mr. Folks,

Great picture, but the Reagan myth is busted. He has an airport named for him, but have you seen his face on a coin? A bill? No, you won’t.

But you can get a coin with President “O” on it.

For $19.95 you can get three!

I know it is picking nits, but you are a Republican if you have an R by your name. Whether someone is a conservative or not can be open for debate, however.
