    These are quotes reportedly attributable to Ronald Reagan:
    • Here's my strategy on the Cold War: "We win, they lose."
    • "The most terrifying words in the English Language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help."
    • "The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant: It's just that they know so much that isn't so."
    • "Of the four wars in my lifetime none came about because the U.S. was too strong."
    • "I have wondered at times about what the Ten Commandment's would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress."
    • "The taxpayer: That's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination."
    • "Government is like a baby: An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other."
    • "If we ever forget that we're one Nation under God, then we will be a Nation gone under."
    • "The nearest thing to eternal life we will ever see on this earth is a government program."
    • "I've laid down the law, though, to everyone from now on about anything that happens: no matter what time it is, wake me, even if it's in the middle of a Cabinet meeting."
    • "It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first."
    • "Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it and if it stops moving, subsidize it."
    • "Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed there are many rewards, if you disgrace yourself you can always write a book."
    • "No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women."
    • Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference. The Marines don't have that problem."

    Reagan was the disdain of the lib political opposition party of the 70's and history has proved he was the right man for the job. Inspite of the present whiners, GWB will prove to be in the same league, a brave heroic man who stood up for his beliefs and the good of America and the free world.
    Our lib friends would have us believe the dems before and in between were great leaders. Carter was responsible for greedy savings and loan financial disaster, giving away the Panama Canal, high interest and inflation, plus an embarassing 344 day hostage crisis that Ron R solved in days. Slick Willie brought us Dot Com disaster, false economy, let bin Laden remain free, numerous scandals, free reign for Hildbeast to try and institute socialist policy, and acceptance of the BJ as a nonsexualy responsible act. (I'll let him slide on the BJ philosophy)
