....And yet, claims Edmund Morris in his controversial new biography, DUTCH: A MEMOIR OF RONALD REAGAN, Reagan was "unjustly acccused of living in the past. Few Presidents have been as forward-looking."

And that's just one of many contradictions Morris offers us. Although Reagan went years without uttering the word AIDS and even suggested, in 1987, that the virus was a plague brought against sodomizers by an angry God, Morris insists that he was adamantly opposed to discrimination against homosexuals. And though he was beloved by the Christian Right, Reagan was neither a successful family man nor a particularly devoted churchgoer. In the 1950s, he was so active sexually that Morris claims he once woke up beside a young woman he was unable to evenidentify— hardly the lovable, old-fashioned grandfatherly figure he was thought to be by many, if not most, Americans.
