lol... As if he'd come here and defend himself if he were still alive?
Perhaps not, but most modern presidents (aside from Kennedy, obviously) later published detailed memoirs that outlined their decision making process, gave insight into their thoughts on the issues, etc. In Reagan's case he never had the opportunity to write a book, so people make shyt up as they go along, as evidenced by the OP.
Ronald Reagan wasn't the saint many believe he is.........
"It may take many more years before a mainstream politician or a journalist who cares about future employment dares speak truthfully about Reagan and the grievous harm that his presidency inflicted on the American Republic and the people of the Earth."
Now it comes out that Ronald Reagan may have had Alzheimer's.......
"Suspicion that Reagan might have Alzheimer's surfaced during the 1984 election when he lost his train of thought in his first debate with Democrat Walter Mondale."
why don't we just go back a little farther and blame also the founding father too. that article is an opinion base on no facts at all, any one can write that kind of b.s. and I though liberals were the smart ones I guess that . is also b.s.

This is why, it is a sales pitch, trying to pander to the more gullible segment of the population. From the bottom of the OP link:

For more on these topics, see Robert Parry’s Lost History and Secrecy & Privilege, which are now available with Neck Deep, in a three-book set for the discount price of only $29.
His latest book, Neck Deep: The Disastrous Presidency of George W. Bush, was written with two of his sons, Sam and Nat [snip] His two previous books, Secrecy & Privilege: The Rise of the Bush Dynasty from Watergate to Iraq and Lost History: Contras, Cocaine, the Press & 'Project Truth' are also available there.
I suppose if you like conspiracy theories these books would be a fine complement to the tin foil hat.

Mandating that hospitals and ER's must care for every person, regardless of their ability to pay for that care, then not setting up a system to pay for that?
Yeah, real smart.
Ronald Reagan and the congress beneath him are responsible for the 300% increase in medical costs and insurance rates today.
Thanks gipper.

This best explains what we thought about Carternomics...
What I'm saying is that President Reagan was a worse President, whose decade was salvaged by the collapse of the Soviet Union which was really the result of American foreign policy set forth since Eisenhower.
Reagan didn't win the cold war, he carried the ball across the goal line, from the one yard line.
Ronald Reagan caused our insurance rates to increase, medical rates to go up, fueled the military industrial complex that didn't need any more fuel, increased the national debt, and caused wealth to be taken from middle class and increased the wealth of the super rich.
Things that it said were wrong, though. Whch makes it hard to believe the rest is right.
