Thank God for our U. S. Troops, both the living, and the brave soldiers who gave their lives to protect our freedom. The world would have been a very different place without them. Just imagine what the world would look like without their courage and sacrifice. Watching President Ronald Reagan's Memorial Day Speech, from 1984, exudes feelings of national pride and gratitude to those courageous Americans who gave their very lives for our country. They are honored with a great and special gratitude this Memorial Day weekend.

Less Government = More Freedom
Ronald Reagan's speech evokes pride....of course, at the same time he was giving this stirring speech, he was sneaking around, funding the murderous Contras in violation of the Boland Amendment, quite possibly with the money from Ollie North's cocaine smuggling. The man was almost impeached for this...and should've been.
ReplyDeleteoh, Barf! Reagan, the most corrupt President ever (except maybe G.W. Bush), waving the flag and talking about how people gave their lives. For what? So that he and the evil cabal behind him could ship jobs overseas, steal from government programs, make sure the rich don't have to pay any taxes, and strip away the government protections that might have prevented the S&L ripoffs, Enron, Bernie Madoff, environmental desecration and dead workers...not to mention the meltdown of the economy.
ReplyDeleteThe prisons were full of Reagan appointees...many more should've gone. I spit on his grave.
