>> Indeed views of Obama are not any worse than were attitudes toward Ronald Reagan at about this time in his second term.

You would have to be totally nuts to believe this. The comparison lunacy.

At this point in Reagan's presidency his approval rating was around 60%. While the Left was able to drum up a single "scandal" during the Reagan presidency, he handled it with class and competence
.

My God, did you bother to read the article, or is English your second language. Because what you say above is factually incorrect.

Reagan was a great president by any metric. No one, NOBODY, will ever accuse Obama of being a "great" president 30 years hence. Will not happen. Were it not for his blackness Obama would have a 25% approval rating today.

Reagan was an idiot. The Iraq/Iran problems started under him. He helped Hussein acquire WMDs. In fact, the ME's hatred of the US increased significantly under his presidency. He was blatantly supporting right wing dictatorships. He encouraged racial animosities in the South with his states' rights BS. He singlehandedly doubled the homeless population in this country. He pushed the trickle down theory of economics that benefited only the rich. He was a tool for the right...........the worst kind of puppet.

Great President? ROTFLMAO!

His campaign colluded with the Iranians to hold the hostages until after the election. Which was treason. He also sold the Iranians weapons. Which might as well have.

Do you ever remember things that actually happened?
