Yeah I was just reading CNN.com like 2 minutes ago and I clicked on the link that said he was in very poor health, then it took me to a page that said he had died.
RIP. |

I'm a proud democrat, but I do give credit where it is do. He did re-establish the confidence this country lost after the turbulent 70s; Vietnam loss, oil embargo, runaway inflation, and the Iran hostage situation. And he also was responsible for speeding the collapse of the USSR, freeing countless of people.

I was born in 86, but what he did was long lasting... and I can comment on what he had done in office, him and Bush Sr. brought this country into a large economic downfall, he nearly brought us to the edge of nuclear war more than once, and he wasted billions on SDI and other defense systems that went no where.

What? I don't recall ever even coming close to a nuclear conflict.
You're right he did blow enormous amounts of money on defense, but it did have one historic result: the hastening of the collapse of the Soviet Union. |
