Well, just about every other one of his 'prizes' was for a military spending blunder. The $600 hammers are cost accounting anomalies that have nothing to do with the real cost of hammers -- to the military or anyone else. Had the government paid $12 for the hammers, the other $588 would have had to have been paid elsewhere. This is just one of those issues where it is too damned complicated to explain to America in a soundbite, and unfortunately, it becomes the subject of political debate when it shouldn't. Let me see........a $12 hammer cost $600. Yeah, your right....it looks way too complicated for anyone to understand. Spin, spin, spin........that's the name of the game. the threat to our well being he kept saying it was in public This is typical liberal revisionism. Reagan, almost single handedly, brought eliminated nuclear proliferation, ended the Cold War, and brought down the Russian military. This is what strength in political leadership is all about. Reagan did squat...except spend money and build up the deficit. Russia collapsed of its own inert weight. Any other explanation is Reps. revisionism.
