1) Bush has doubled the gasoline prices.
2) Reagan did not get the country rolling.
3) Another big lie is that Reagan ended the Cold War
4) Bush would love to start a war against Iran.
5) Moore was right, except he underestimated the problem.
6) Dan Rather's report was correct about Bush.
These are all true statements. You can nip around the edges on technicalities like when airspace was open, or how long Reagan's boom lasted vs his recession, but you canny deny my basic statements.
1) Before 2000, gasoline prices were roughly half, maybe not exactly, but projections are for $3 this summer.
2) Reagan's economy was a mixed bag, and largely debt-driven. He left us with a huge deficit, so it was a credit card boom only. Any fool can borrow money to go on a spending spree.
3) Reagan is one of many forces which ended the Cold War, including his opposites, the hippie, anti-nuke and peace movements of the 60's and 70's which spread into Soviet countries and had the young people demanding freedom. The Beatles had a large influence, for instance. Gorbachev was more influential than Reagan and deserves more credit. He risked his life to end communism as we knew it. Reagan simply spent more on arms. Any fool can spend, as I've said. Reagan did inspire conservatives though, I'll give you that.
4) Bushies would love to invade Iran. If they can get away with it, they will. Problem is, we've run out of troops tanks to Bush's unilateralism.
5) FBi confirms Michael Moore underestimated the amount of Bin Laudens and Saudis Bush let out of the country on 9-13. And some of them were suspected of being connected to the plot, so says the FBI. Bushies and Saudis have tried hard to cover this up, but the FBI knows and has told us now.
6) Bush indeed used family influence to get out of military duty. Only a blind fool would disagree. Therefore Rather's premise was correct even if his source was questionable, maybe even a Karl Rove false flag plant. |
