Hmmm? What's that? See 1986-1988?

The 10th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade is a good time for us to pause and reflect. Our nationwide policy of abortion-on-demand through all nine months of pregnancy was neither voted for by our people nor enacted by our legislators — not a single state had such unrestricted abortion before the Supreme Court decreed it to be national policy in 1973. But the consequences of this judicial decision are now obvious: since 1973, more than 15 million unborn children have had their lives snuffed out by legalized abortions. That is over ten times the number of Americans lost in all our nation's wars.

So, who wants to come out and say something stupid like "Reagan was a democrat, Reagan was a liberal, Reagan would be thrown out of the Republican party today" blah, blah, blah....

He's a typical Statist Reagan-worshipper.

They hate it when true small-government libertarians call Reagan out on his socialism.

Losing an argument? Your pathetic attempt to rewrite history isn't going to work. Why? Because there's literally 10's of 1,000's of documents you'll have to completely ignore to make your argument.

Maybe in your fantasy land you're winning or something... You should get up with Charlie Sheen or something.

This coming from the guy who put up Jefferson as a true leader. Who expanded the Federal Government the most during his presidency? Why, Jefferson did.

So, what was that you were saying about a true small-government libertarian?

You should bring up those "documents". Or at least brings up some facts to disprove that consumer credit didn't drive up the economy.

Why should I disprove your false assumption that credit is a bad thing. Credit is only bad in the hands of idiots. Are you an idiot?

You don't think people are going to be saving 100% of the money for the cost of their house do you? Do you think everyone is going to be saving 100% for the cost of their car?

You honestly sound like a Ron Paul freak that has tons of ideas where we should go but no idea what we'll do when we get there.

I never said he was a "true leader." Libertarians don't believe in having a "leader." If you knew anything about libertarianism, you'd understand that.

I realize Jefferson wasn't a great President (only 2 qualify for that--Cleveland and Tyler); I just throw him in with the others because his ideals are part of the basis for modern-day libertarianism.

But my point stands that Reagan was a Keynesian statist who was in no way, shape, or form a fiscal conservative.

If your not going to disprove me then stop responding to my post.

You honestly sound like an Obama freak that pretends to be a conservative but is truly a State-worshipper.
