A Dissenting View

[arisbe]

I have no idea whether or not Reagan would have approved of the monster that many of his policies helped to create. His intentions here are not important; what is important, however, is that the U.S. Government has become an even bigger threat to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That is the real Reagan legacy, and it is one that neither the critics of the left or the admirers on the right will ever understand. -- William L. Anderson

Read this. Now. I mean it. If only for the take on Mayor Rudy.

I wonder, though, as I do about Nixon, whether Reagan might not have been a good President, maybe a great President, certainly a less destructive President, had he been elected eight years earlier than he was.

I guess I accept the man but
only relatively the premise. Never
did think eliminating government
was in itself much of a goal.
am therefore unalarmed by
federal government to any
presently forseeable point.
Or certainly to the present.
but enough from me, just since
you asked for a response...
