since you're complaining about being ignored, I thought that I would ask you what your opinion of the Man is, not the movie, but Reagan as a president. I personally think he is very comparable to Bush #2 in that he did what he beleived was best for the country, no matter what polls or critics said. I know a lot of people will disagree that either of them did what was best, but I see Bush as being a leader. I disagree with a lot of his policies and he has done a lot to offend his conservative base, but he does what he thinks is right.
I think like Reagan and as you pointed out, he takes care of the big decisions and often times the people around him do things that he doesn't agree with and is unaware of. With regards to the war on terror, I think the comparisons to the cold war are applicable. Bush certainly is leading us into dangerous ground and into dangerous times. Reagan's arms race was also a big gamble, but I think that the both of them beleived in the principles of America and believe that people geuinly want to live in a free society not unlike ours.
What say you Rick?
