Palin Says U.S. Not in Step With Reagan Values, but Is She in His Mold?

Remember something: In times of struggle and uncertainty, it is easy for a political figure to say, "Remember when" etc. Nothing about the Reagan administration has to do with today.

Miss Palin gets by for one reason: Same as Ann COulter and the new one on the block: Michelle Bachmann in Minnesota.

The GOP traditionally are "old white hairs" with generally conservative ideals. These three tall, very attractive women feel like since they articulate well and have exceptional educations, can influence Americans and spill little factoids to impress the average American on TV.

They get by because they are attractive women, period!

They have no solutions for problems like most. Here is the thing: Anyone can complain about how "the old days" were better and blah blah.

Here is my war cry: Either have a potential solution to our problems as a nation, namely Chinese trade leverage, Russia borrowing money on Monday and denouncing us geo-politically on Tuesday and a handful of middle-eastern nations bleeding the U.S. economically in a war they do not need to win, but rather just have to NOT LOSE.

Palin needs to either correct a problem or go clean my kitchen floor. Because bringing up facts about the 80's...unimpresses me.

I get a kick out of Glenn Beck, but Michelle Bachmann from Minnesota has announced she is running for president.

What a dumb broad she is. Two words for her: Cleaning service. She should open a one and call it a day. All she talks about are tax bills and scares people to death...or aims to anyway. Discussing taxes and "fiscal discipline", Bachmann makes the simple complicated:


Palin is no better. She is one of a handful of conservative hard-line Republican women who have something which makes them stand out amongst the typical blue haired Republicans: She is physically attractive.

She, Coulter and now Bachmann think they can command attention and influence others because they articulate little factoids well and are attractive.

CLEANING SERVICES for all of them.
Here is the rest of my post before any readers assume I am a sexist or slanging false accusations.

why does Palin think the USA lost the space race & why does she think it was sputnik that led to the downfall of the USSR.

sarah palin and ronald reagan in the same breath....no way he would embrace her or her followers......she is a product of 15 seconds of fame but has no touch of reality that she is a light weight!!!!

Again Sara Palin is way out of her league on Regan or Politics in General. I wish someone could tell me what this woman has accomplished that give her the right to choose one TV Station to spew her twisted knowledge on as well as tweet and every other station including the internet picks it up as some sort of truth. I have no problem with this woman making money nor do I have a problem with her campaigning and making money for the Republican Party, But I have to draw a line when her words that divide and hurt this country are a lot of lies and no back-up, If she intends to run for President then Run and stop toying with it to simply hurt others and keep the checks rolling in. Come out in the open and show you can stand toe to toe not only with the competition but the news Media as well. As for the Democrats they could care less if she runs as she won't even get past the Primaries but for gods sake lets get on with it as she will need a head start and with the way they are doing her party may need one as well. And by the way she is not the authority on Ronald Regan and she certainly will never see the day that she is anywhere like him. Its sad to say but I am totally sick of hearing and seeing this woman and I hope we can remove Bachman as well her next election. Surely we have better representivies than these two to be in the office of any goverment position.

It's to bad Sarah didn't have to work and raise a family during the Reagan years. Had she had to take two or three cuts in pay and go home every night praying she would still have job in the morning, she might have a different view of Reagan..Reagan had one goal and that was to get rid of the American Middle Class.He never met an Anti-Worker Policie that didn't love.

Imagine.... prior to Mrs. Palin stepping onto the bridge where the shaken Captain was manning the helm; the USS McCain had suffered so much damage while running aground in earlier waters under the inept tutelage of Captain McMcain and his crew of loyalist, that the battered hulk of battered ideology and poor seamanship was beyond repair and headed for dry-dock in a safe harbor identified as; Senators Dry Dock and Port of Safety.

Now imagine this, in order to save face the loyal crew with a little so called slight of hand and a silent nod of approval from the Captain attempted to marginalize the able young female who, came to their rescue and managed to bring a little clarity to their plight, aboard a ship making its way through troubled and turbulent waters, toward the safety of shallow waters, while at the same time, steering her listed course from a port listing to a starboard port, while implementing the notion that scuttling the USS McCain in open seas was not an option she was considering.

Little did she know at the time, that the old Captain and his band of loyalist were not about to let this young vibrant Valkyrie of the seas, gain any favor regarding her heroic efforts to save them from them selves, or the ravishes of the cold sea. So the moral of this short story, shipmates is; the attempted efforts to marginalize or discount the sailing or hunting abilities of Mrs. Palin might just, prove to be an unsuitable course that will in the end, be unsettling for the shameless heretics.

The American people were totally taken in and "snowed" by the self-serving Ronald Reagan, while he made pretty speeches and assured them that he was "doing what was best for the country". He supported dictators because he felt they were "better allies" to America. That included Saddam Hussein, to whom he supplied the arms and chemicals to murder his people. He supported the government which murdered one hundred thousand Mayans. He made deals with Iran for arms and other concessions so that they would not release American hostages until AFTER the election between himself and Jimmy Carter. Then Iran turned on Reagan and used those arms to kill 241 American Marines.

I believe that the Spartacus Educational Biography of Reagan, was more accurate than all these tribute stories which idolize Reagan as if he was a God. I believe he was one of the most two faced, coniving and anti-American Presidents we have ever had. I have always believed that, and when I read the Spartacus Biography, I knew I had always been right.

Sarah Palin is the Norm Crosby of politics but not as smart. It is amazing to me that conservatives try to revise history and make Reagan a great President. Following are some facts for those who get their info from FOX News:

-Reagan put into law the largest tax increase in history up to that point and he
raised taxes seven of his eight years in office.
- He tripled the deficit to three trillion dollars - three times the amount over the previous 80 years
- After the Reagan tax cuts to the rich, unemployment rose to 10.8%
-He left a large deficit when he left office
-Federal spending increased substantially during his terms.
-He illegally funnelled money, secretly, to Iran
-He funded Islamist mujahidin fighters in Afghanistan. Osama and the Taliban emerged from those groups. His proxy war after the Soviets retreated played a direct role in Bin Laden's ascenency.

These are the are the facts. Those who are drinking the Kool-aid served-up by FOX news and that ilk ought to make an effort to read more and not be sucked-in to revisionists history
