PLEASE REMEMBER THE REAL RONALD REAGAN

All intelligent thoughts have already been thought; what is necessary is only to try to think them again. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe  

If the Republicans are trying to emulate past President Ronald Reagan, they need to read a few history books.

I find it amusing that the Republicans all think they are like  Ronald Reagan but his son and daughter claim their lack of understanding of their father and are nothing like him.  Typical of the Teapartiers, they ignore President Reagan's offspring (who probably kinew their father best).  After all, Teapartiers are not interested in truth.  They have their own specific goals, one of them being to follow Grover Norquist, another to assure that Obama is a one-term president regardless of the cost to the nation's poorest.

Reagan might not have been our best or brightest President, but he did try to work for the good of the country and not primarily to please voters to stay in office.


I am left wondering what percentage of the current legislators of  both Houses of Congress can claim the same motives.
