Ronald Reagan June 21, 1979

[FRSFreeStatePlus]

Ron Reagan could afford to wait in announcing he was running for President, unlike Sen. Fred Thompson. Because of how popular and well known he was in the Republican Party.

[jksonny]

Best President in my lifetime and one of the best in history.

[salbella50]

THATS SOUNDS LIKE SOCIALISM TO ME......GETTING PAID FOR DOING NOTHING..

[elfgirl3]

Reagan was the best president since Washington and Lincoln 

[baddickagain]

SUCKS! lol

[rabrrrrrr]

Such a lying, phony sack of shit. We're still paying and suffering from his mismanagement of the country and the way that he established blatant racism and meanness as okay for public dialogue, and helped usher in the takeover of this country by ignorance-loving "Christians" who wouldn't recognize a word of Jesus if they tripped over it on the way to bombing a medical center.

[Eidelmania]

Reagen looked like a dried old prune even back then

[TheUsman2000]

Just yet another example of the wisdom and honesty of Ronald Reagan.

[88mphsss]

god i can't decide who reagan resembles or who it is that seems Reagan-esque. it's like i can't determine if it's Andy Griffith or maybe Burt Lancaster, or someone else entirely.

there's something about him that reminds me of my neighbor but i'd say my neighbor reminds me more of Walter Matthau than Reagan...irony is he's a Democrat! but has his hair pretty much the same

[FrsBigeasy]

Thats Shrewd Campaigning.

[deltapunk21]

PS he didn't make a tremednous amount doing stuff.

[deltapunk21]

So your telling me he openly talked about being a private citizen and contuing with what he was doing untila set time.

Wow.

[wormyyea]

chris mathews is a commie piece of crap

[phoenixbornagain]

Finally proof that blujesus is a Muslim. He has been posting anti-American posts about how he rejoices that our service men and women are being killed and their heads cut off then he does one of those "post removed by author" when ever we are posting at the same time. Your game is up liar, and the word Satan is old world language for liar. Which is what you are and now all the world can see when they check my videos

Note lumpagogo is one of many screen names of blujesus

[phoenixbornagain]

Alright Mr. O!! good job! only moments after hearing the senate (at last) was going to pass your brilliant stimulus pack...the stock market...DROPS OVER 400 POINTS!! LOL!!! Man that shows even to most thick headed liberal that no mater how badly you "want things" like the freeloaders at the town hall meeting, your big chiefs plan stinks, those who really know about economics react to how good or (in this case) BAD a leaders plan for future guidance really is. (insert the "TAPS" sound track here)

[phoenixbornagain]

LOL Mr. O is fumbling and stumbling around on TV at this very moment. LOL unless its a speech he writes he says uummm like every 10th word LOL!!!!!!

[lumpagogo]

Ronnie "peaked too soon" after making that Bozo movie. Or was it Bonzo? Same thing. Freddie Thompson has to be one of the most stunning bores in U.S. hx, makes Reagan seem almost tolerable.

Freddie Krueger/Thompson.

[phoenixbornagain]

I remember watching and enjoying the Reagan cater debate and watching Reagan clean the floor with him. LOL All those liberal ideas combined with carters weak and ineffective liberal use of force in military maters made cater a foolish looking poster boy for an entire party LOL! it was a blast watching that live

[phoenixbornagain]

interesting anit-bluejesus posts on his own page, wonder who looks more like the KKK based on others posts

What Party fought to keep blacks in slavery and was the Party of the Ku Klux Klan? Democratic Party. These and other facts can be found in history books and online.

[phoenixbornagain]

I honestly thought that the scandals that follow liberals around like fly's would at least not start till after the changing of the presidents, but then a beautiful diamond of an example of how corrupts liberals are falls in your lap like Rod Blagojevich. And with federal phone tap excerpts suggesting that Blagojevich believed some prospects would pay to play, formerly eager supplicants are distancing themselves as fast as they can.

[phoenixbornagain]

Did you know Obama was quite religious in Islam Contemporaries, records dispute campaign claim that he was never practicing Muslim By Aaron Klein, JERUSALEM Was Sen. Barack Obama a Muslim?

Did he ever practice Islam? The presidential candidate officially rejects the claims, but the issue of Obamas personal faith has re-emerged amid conflicting accounts of his enrollment as a Muslim during elementary school in Indonesia, the worlds most populous Muslim nation.

[phoenixbornagain]

-During Reagans presidency he decreased the tax rate of the richest quintile from 70% in 1981 to 31% in 1988 (Joint Economic Committee, 1990)

-In 1981, the beginning of Reagans presidency, the top 5% of wage earners paid 35% of federal income taxes, while the bottom 50% paid 8%. By 1988, the end of Reagans presidency, the top 5% paid 46% of the federal taxes, while the bottom 50% paid 6%(Joint Economic Committee, 1990)

Liberals Loose

[phoenixbornagain]

-During the Carter administration (1977-80), of the new jobs created, 41,77% were under $7,012, 68.2% were in the $7,012-$28,048/yr bracket, and 9.9% of the pre-existing jobs in the $28,048 and up bracket were actually lost (Joint Economic Committee, based on data from Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor)

Jimmy Carter was like a sci-fi monster in how badly he could (not)manage things.

[phoenixbornagain]

Facts on Reagan the great:

-20 million new jobs were created during the Reagan presidency(U.S. Statistical Abstract)

-Of these 20 million new jobs:

-The average hourly wage was $10/hr.

-46.1% were over $28,048/yr, and another 46.2% were from $7,012-$28,048/yr, while only 6% were under $7,012/yr.

Liberals hate history books because they show them to be the liars they are.

[exenrontexas]

Reagan made the bank and mortgage collapse possible and enabled corporate criminals like ENRON. Reagan ALSO shamed America with Iran/Contra and nearly collapsed the markets in '87, caused the S&L calamity and wasted a TRILLION dollars on a useless weapons system that NEVER worked. THAT is Reagan's legacy and the heritage of the NEOCONS.

[Michthemitch]

REAGAN WAS a disaster !!!

[Atomsmasher777]

Reagan's changing of the tax code in 1986: The top tax rate was lowered from 50% to 28% while the bottom rate was raised from 11% to 15%.

This is why I call middle class Republicans "SUCKERS FOR THE RICH" and have for over 20 years.

[lumpagogo]

Freddy and Ronnie are both draft-dodging 3rd-rate actors but one was a slick-talking transplanted Californian (the Tampico Tampon)

while the other is a bald, ugly and ignorant good-ole-boy. With hair, Freddy might have done some damage. Maybe.

Ronnie, you were Mr. Damage--8 years of Hell, 16 for CA.

[kiminokami]

Yeah, but one of them is Ronald Reagan, and the other is a schmuck.

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

^_^ good one

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

One would need to have been born deep in the womb of evil not to be motivated to national patriotism by this great mans words

[Buddy212002]

@phoenixhammeroftruth "Mistakes were made." We're all in Reagan's debt. Thanks for killing those nuns in Central America Dutch! Probably the only other major accomplishment was balancing the budget! Thanks for making us a debtor nation too! And let's not forget those homosexual call boys you had coming to the White House at night! I'm sure he knew nothing about all the cocaine that flooded America and your secret deals with Iran were just awesome! Only the good die young.

[devourerofbabies]

@Buddy212002 Only the good die young? But Reagan didn't die young. That would mean... HEY!!! JUST WHAT ARE YOU GETTING AT?

[chrycohauler]

@Buddy212002 more liberal filth without anything to substantiate.you are an idiot of the highest order

[Buddy212002]

@chrycohauler Lick spittle.

[danoftherepublic]

the reason that so many lefty claims are not answered is because as reagan said "the problem with our liberal friends isn't that they are ignorant, its just that they know so much that isnt so" and the media loves to agree that this is true. Despite high levels of homelessness under clinton. After reagab/bush left...media reporting of homeless fell off a shelf

[esb84]

That's totally false. Reagan let out 40,000 mentally ill crazies from mental asylums as governor. These same nutjobs now inhabit the streets of San Francisco, living in their own filth. The homeless rate initially went up under Clinton due to the welfare cuts, but then the economy soared and it went way down. Research the facts, don't quote an actor whose job it was to lie to the American people. Reagan was good only as a figurehead, terrible as a president.

[exenrontexas]

It was Reagan who dumped fifty thousand disabled Vietnam vets on the streets to become the mentally ill homeless to die in America's alleys. That is how Reagan respected their service to America.

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

In 1988 - the last year he was in office -- there were only 32,311 cases of AIDS diagnosed in the US, and a drug had already been approved that held the promise of treatment. By way of comparison, there were over 62,000 cases of diabetes diagnosed in the United States that same year, yet no outcry about this was heard from the Left then or now.

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

They want to paint a picture of a President who ''ignored'' AIDS, started wars for fun, and just happened to be in the White House when the Soviet Union collapsed of its own accord. It's a false portrait.

The whine that ''President Reagan ignored AIDS'' is simply ridiculous. AIDS was not identified until 1981, and Reagan's government spent $5.7 billion on AIDS research, beginning in 1983.

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

Most of us remember President Reagan as the man responsible for revitalizing the American spirit, bringing the economy out of its tailspin, and defeating the Soviet Union--immense and daunting tasks at the time. The completion of any one of them would be cause enough to honor and respect the man; Ronald Reagan accomplished all three and more. The haters, as usual, focus exclusively on the negative, no matter how minor.

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

they will never understand that they cant hold control for very long even when they win.

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

I look forward in November to the out rage and agony and out cries of "it must be fixed!" or "Its unfair!" when Obama loses, which he will for the following reason. The dems stand for nothing, and their approach of offer up the worlds largest "poopoo platter" of trying to give every possible gimmick of "WOMAN / BLACK MAN" will only serve to crush their party even more when they are dumbfounded as to why it did not work. Because it's about substance and not gimmicks that

[HarcourtMarketing]

I don't care who isPresident. White, Black, yes even Female. My goodness, my Mommy as ruler of Us all? Watch out! HaHa. I need, as may a few thousands more USA Citizens need a Leader to put His foot down and stop the crud going on. I wish the USA to continue as the one beacon of Freedom worldwide, doing so to spread Freedom to All Peoples. If We as a Nation, are reduced to puppets,Hey, then why would the other humans in Asia or Africa, ect even consider Us as a role model? let them do otherwise.

[abbottbj]

Ronald Reagan acted his way through office, he left this country in terrible shape, with harsh partisianship, extreme income and social inequality and division, he helped the rich and big business, he was a greedy old man who fooled the country with his acting skills, ill give that to him he could act.

[AnimeAzumi]

GREAT!!!

Thank you for posting this video of the greatest President we've had in the last hundred years; maybe since George Washington himself!

[IronHorse79FFP]

There are great American presidents, and number 1 is Ronald Wilson Reagan! I admire his leadership, vision, morale and humor.

[powerhousekiller]

This Leader made the USA the envy of the world. Few times in history have there been people with such great moral vision. R.I.P. Mr. President.

[falconwings1982]

Ronald Reagan himself was a beneficiary of resentment. Care to explain why he made his first post 1980 convention stop in Philadelphia, Mississippi? Does criticizing his opposition to the cause of freedom in South Africa constitute hate speech? If so, I'd be honored to join your "hate speech" list. Who was he, to brutalize Berkeley protesters right to protest? Nominating the likes of Robert Bork? Bush 2 is following the EXACT same policies and now he is the biggest liability for the GOP!

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

In his first inaugural address on January 20, 1981, which Reagan himself wrote, he addressed the country's economic malaise arguing: "Government is not the solution to our problems; government is the problem."

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

As president, Reagan kept a series of leather bound diaries, in which he talked about daily occurrences of his presidency, commented on current issues around the world (expressing his point of view on most of them), and frequently mentioned his wife, Nancy. The diaries were published in May 2007, into the bestselling book, The Reagan Diaries.

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

During his Presidency, Ronald Reagan pursued policies that reflected his optimism in individual freedom, expanded the American economy, and contributed to the end of the Cold War. The "Reagan Revolution," proponents claimed, would reinvigorate American morale, and reduce the people's reliance upon government.

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

Proof of milestones in the Reagan presidency that bettered the US and the world check out ww ronaldreagan com & clinton4 nara dot gov & time dot com Medal of freedom . com / given for reason of "Symbol of all that is Best in America" how very appropriate

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

Mr. Reagan turned everything around. Working with Mr. Reagan's clear and compelling overview, his team designed a complex strategy of defeating the Soviets. As the renowned Chinese strategist Sun Tsu taught, he won the Cold War (which can be compared to World War III) without firing a shot — a great strategic feat. A man of vision compassion and courage, he is missed by hundreds of millions

[newenglandvideo]

Ronald Reagan was great. I miss his positive attitude he had about this country.

[ronaldec7]

your a loser JohnMicheals20

and thats OK

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

Hes a winner because he sees what you do not. the truth. Pleasure to have a fellow poster for Reagans great leadership on the net.

[ronpaul2016]

And liberal idiots hate Reagan because of that.

[falconwings1982]

This is precisely one of Reagan's biggest faults. The huge divisions between liberal and conservative as evidenced by your reference to people with whom you disagree with as "idiots". It may have been good back then because people where afraid of the Soviet Union, but it sure is not working for the GOP in 2008. The days of neocon rabid politics are coming to an end. Love him or hate him, Reagan is the past. That the GOP will not recognize that in 2008 is why they will get pounded in November.

[ronpaul2016]

You make no sense.  If he attacked liberals and it caused "great divisions", why exactly did he crush the opposition during the election?

If anything, it points to the division caused by LIBERALS as the growing problem not the ones caused by Ronald Reagan who was the last President to truly bring the people together.

Obama dumbasses think he can, but you watch and see how well he does in Nov to see that mistake. Obama Vs. McCain will NOT be Reagan Vs. Carter 80.

[ronpaul2016]

AND a huge percentage of the black vote, of course, voted democrat.

Only liberal douchebags complain about blacks being ignored by republicans during the election cycle and I'm sure the same will happen again this year... 90%+ of blacks are going for Obama simply because he's democrat AND/OR black. Gotta love welfare programs.

Reagan CONSTANTLY bashed welfare. Jimmy Carter was terrible and disliked by all except liberals and blacks...found familiar? Obama = Jimmy Carter Part II.

[falconwings1982]

Reagan constantly bashed welfare, but why didn't he bash corporate welfare, the real "welfare bums"? Reagan took it to the other extreme (probably worse).

You said it best yourself. This is not Reagan vs. Carter 80. Unfortunately, if you're fantasizing a McCain victory, you are in for a very rude awakening. Obama still leads McCain, EVEN WITH AN UNFINISHED DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY in. Wait till the Democrats unite...

[ronpaul2016]

HAHA. Dummycrats unite? A lot of bad blood will exist when Hillary leaves. She will not be VP, and the masses of America will not accept a marxist left wing liberal who loves our enemies and has been taught to hate whitey by his racist pastor for the last 20+ years.

Pathetic.

I'll bookmark this video to look back in November to laugh in your face. Not really because McCain won, just because you're a douchebag.

[falconwings1982]

Your response is exactly what I meant by great divisions. This idea of liberal vs. conservatives. Right wing people vs. progressives. The fact that you can put down someone by merely saying "liberal" and nothing else. As if liberals are wrong and conservatives are always right. It is costing the GOP in 2008. You can no longer simply put someone down as liberal as Reagan and other ensuing Republicans did. You actually have to offer solutions. If the GOP can't see that, they are in deep trouble.

[hickeye]

stop dragging Ron Paul's good name through the gutters of your thought process for all to see

[ronpaul2016]

Ron Paul appeals to racists, anti-government lunatics, and conspiracy theorists.

Ron Paul is a fucktard, and you are a mindless shithead douchebag if you follow him.

But hey, just go ahead and keep listening to Alex Jones like a good dumbass.

[hickeye]

sorry dude...but you ARE the racist lunatic here. wait...what role were you TRYING to play?

[HarcourtMarketing]

How dare any human put down another human for what they believe. I think that my little daughter is not to be subjected to the the neighbor's sexual behaviors of lesbian-ism, pregnant second daughter no daddy around, first daughter with two kids no daddy around lifestyle. I don't hate these people. Just don't allow them to associate them selves with my 10 y.o. baby daughter. Does this make ME a fucktard? Or just attempting to have a smiley faced grandchild with mom and dad at Thanks Giving?

[ronpaul2016]

If you support Ron Paul, then yes. You are a fucktard.

[HarcourtMarketing]

If Ron Paul, was able to be President AND reverse the *ullsh*t of decades of USA laws, interventions, and alliances of wrong doings of these United States. It'd be a miracle. No matter the name, party. I only think and "believe" that a person, could stand up for Us, as USA Citizens, without the fear of losing Worldly gains and such. For what I saw, Ron Paul, does that. I, used to. I wrote several times to the DEA for turning in "known" meth makers. I got audited by the IRS, 4 years from then on.

[mfugi]

One person's hate is another person's love. That's why I love to hate you.

[phoenixhammeroftruth]

LOL I love you too mmmmmm whaw LOL ^_^

[bigmac2005]

god punished reagan with alzhiemers for all the evil shit he did.

[0Blackwater]

And you will soon be punished for being such an idiot "bigmac"... God willing.

[FalloutDeath]

ohh yea and by the way media maters is funded by george soros as well as the clinton camp and other liberal groups its a left wing bullshit smear group that only attacks news outlets that are not liberal. Americans are learning Liberal trickery and the truth about these people are getting known libs cant rely on lies forever

[FalloutDeath]

The comment below is and absurd lie dont listen to idiots ingnorant of history
