"..defend Bob Herbert's obvious agenda in bringing up something from 1980." Just how many elected (R) blacks are on the national scene? Oh, yeah, ZERO! ..and that's from RIGHT NOW. Why the (R)'s don't find that shameful is beyond me.

Listen, Reagan had faults... live with it. He also pulled out of Lebanon after the devastating attack on US troops. He cut and ran. He also raised taxes after he cut taxes. And Iran contra. He's not the demigod you guys make him out to be. So what? It's childish the way you defend the purity of every action of your ideological hero... and boring. Herbert is obviously partisan (and black and offended that Reagan used racial prejudice to get elected). So what?
