The ..2012.... Political thread
-
Yes - that is my point. Reagan jacked up our spending on arms, knowing that the soviets would try to keep up but couldn't afford to, which would lead to the end of their regime. So chalk one big one up for the republicans.

I meant to say "bringing",not "bribing". (apple's autocorrect is overly active)
Basically, when it comes to correcting typos, it's basically the equivalent of waving a white flag, except that overactive testosterone or estrogen (yes, both can cause irrational behavior ) won't allow them to give up Of course Reagan had to clean up a mess (and had to spend some money in the process)...only the desperate would ignore the whole picture of the accomplishment and only focus on what they perceive as a negative (i.e spending money, which affected the national debt)...And it wasn't just again the Soviets, but also cleaning up after the inept president who was in office the prior term ops: And if Reagan was so bad, how come the 'Messiah' (Obama) is trying to associate his credibility to the likes of Ronald Reagan?

Joke: Little Johnny was in school. A classmate said that the Democrat Party was the same as Communists. "No they aren't", replied Johnny. "The Communist party protects their borders and supports their military."

Hmmmm... ...I wonder what'll make her cease from reiterating the question. Hmmm... I wonder. Wow -- this is gonna' be an all-nighter tryin' to figure this one out. Somebody put on a pot of coffee.
So according to Bill Maher if you 're a racist, you're going to be a republican? Can I point out something that should be plain to anyone who reads this board: You are. Constantly making racist remarks about white people. So you 're a racist, but I don't think you're republican. Are you?.

Are you saying that Communists and Republicans have much more in common, then?

Yes exactly. Thank you for agreeing with me -- Reagan jacked up our spending on arms knowing that the soviets would attempt to keep up and would collapse economically. Which is what happened.[code:1][/code:1]
Hilarious where did you pick up info that reagan was trying to outspend the Russians??? what a myth have to have some facts ...you know Also President Obama has not tried to emulate reagan but I do think he might like to be compared to Lincoln....much better choice.

Could someone explain about Wisconsin...an uproar from the people happened, wasn't it about wanting some kind of positive change...and now Wisconsin legislators have passed a law which hurts Union workers, how does this all tie in together and what exactly happened there?

Here is the Rand report shows US spent less than Russian 1980-1990s, Russian fell by internal means...reagan just happened to be there. page 15 http://www.rand.org/pubs/notes/2005/N2757.pdf

I didn't say that nobody would understand them. (plenty of people do understand them). I said that you are a moron.

Yeah... that was the beginning of Bush spending the surplus that President Clinton had managed to save. Remember that, when our houses were worth something and when life was good...

omg, I'm getting nostalgic now...remember before 9/11 when our government actually responded to threats? And before we invaded the wrong country under false pretenses and killed all the innocents and spent what was left of our surplus and went into dept? It's really depressing
