    Shit on Reagan's policies all you want, fact remains that he was one of, if not the best leaders we had in the entire century. When you're the President you damn well better lead, and he was phenomenal.
    That's exactly what I said on my first post about Reagan. He is the leader we needed at that time. Then I shit on some of his FS policies and the people who romanticize Reagan chimed in all butthurt.

    Explain where I was wrong? Jimmy Carter presidency was marred with high inflation and shitty policy to increase interest rates. Reagan continued that for years.

    The problem was in the 70s, inflation was spurred by high fuel prices and not because of high demand. Making high interest rates shitty monetary policy. As a result we had a recession near the end of Carter and another one a year into Reagan.

    Wow

    I was waiting for your reply to point out that the massive Federal state we have now is most likely an UNINTENDED consequence of FDR's efforts to save the republic from actual socialists and communists

    I've defended FDR myself despite an onslaught of Mike Damone down votes

    What you missed, and maybe have a cup o joe, is that I was making fun of my own relatives on the 60's who called FDR a red.

    I didn't vote for Reagan even though I had two chances to do so and even though @Dennis_DeYoung down voted me for pointing out some positives.

    I'm in my club. Fuck the rest of you
    I remember @RaceBannon 's defending FDR phase before the classical libs cool kids got a hold of him.

    FDR seems to be free falling in the HH Presidential rankings.

    You've gone way over in defending him

    I acknowledged we did need to do something to stop the red menace

    What I said today was he was an anti semite and his policies on economics were failures

    And now the scourge of socialism is BACK and alleged conservatives are still sympathetic

    Once you give the left an inch the problem never gets solved, it just needs more government power. FDR was part of this problem

    You think too black and white. I live in the grey with the classic intellectuals
