OMFG, ROFLMAO Damn Friz.
I remember my father saying that he would have loved to have a man like Reagan running our country, just plainly a politician that did, what he said he would do. May not of liked it, but you knew what was going to happen.
I remember when he went for Gaddafi, but missed that POS, but when Reagan told Gaddafi that he might not be so lucky the second time, (or something like that) well he earned all of my respect. It's really too bad he didn't get that mofo.

Yeah....nothing like being told if you don't do your job, you'll get fired. Imagine that!

He was one president that was not going to bow down to Unions and the Unions never recovered, Well done Ronnie.

Today, I'm a registered Republican. I have a magnum .357 and a shotgun.

Many people don't know it, but Reagan started out as a Democrat and changed to a Republican in the 50's.

And frankly, I would rather have had Nancy calling the shots then than having our current pres calling the shots now.

The (liberal) media asked him once in the early 80's if he shared any of the blame for the economic woes of '81-'82....he replied "Yes, because for many years I was a democrat"

Jon lucky for you and all the other followers that the unions that count never faltered because if they did we would be in a lot worst shape we are in right now. Just my own opinon and not afraid to say it without any backing here thats for sure.

Now Joe, not going to get sucked into a Union rant, but I am one who believes unless you're one of those who retired wealthy at the expense of others including and most importantly the consumers, Unions have no purpose. We live in a free market system and in such there is no place for a Union as they tend to drive up costs which drives up consumer prices and drives jobs out of the country. Just the facts...........

I will rant no more...................... probably.

labor is part of the free market, unions aren't the only signature on the contract.

Public Unions I have no use for

True, but for instance in the case of GM, when your work force threatens to stop production at an already hurting company because they want a bigger share or better benefits, what choice do you have? When GM workers make almost $30 an hour more than Honda or Toyota employees due to years of extortion, how do you expect GM to compete?

I will rant no more............ probably.

The only problem I have with Regan is that he let a good family friend die. After this man GAVE the Regan adminstration the Medellin Cartel on a platter. He let him die and used the profits from the connections my family's friend gave him to fuel the Iran-Contra affair. My family's close friend was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Seal.

Speaking of high alert, Russia and Reagan; If you guys ever have the opportunity to speak to a B-52 pilot or crew member do it. My financial advisor is a retired Air Force Major. He was a B-52 radar tech. This guy showed me where he sat for a record of 26 hours once. He sat underneath the pilot cockpit facing backwards. His stories are great from emergency nuclear drills to B-52s maneuvering thru canyons. That plane is going to bury me.

At least once or twice a week Hannity plays excerpts from various Reagan speeches. It's cool to listen and know what he said then is still relevant today. That is true of most of our countries best leaders. As far as unions go, this is an economy based on capitalism thank god, any economist will tell you though that labor is capitol no different than a machine. Unions originally came into being to say no there is a difference. The problem is greed and power and it has hurt the unions and diminished their credibility.
