What would the right wing media rather talk about? A dead President they can romanticize with no criticism or all of Bush's failing policies?
It's funny how they're talking about Reagan like he was a good President, trying to make it sound like he was responsible for the collapse of the soviet union. What a fucking joke, all I remember about Reagan is:
-Iraq/Contra, trading arms to Iranian terrorists for hostages.
-Arming and training Bin Laden, then calling him a "freedom fighter" and comparing him to the United State's founding fathers.
-Arming Saddam Hussein with chemical and biological weapons.
-Killing 100,000 people in El Salvador in an illegal war while lying about it.
-People in his administration being charged with all kinds of crimes including conspiracy, and then being pardoned by Bush 1 after Clinton kicked his ass in 92.
-Single handedly creating the homeless problem in the US and then claiming that there was no homeless problem. He actually said things like "they're homeless by choice" and "they take the change from their foodstamps to by Vodka". Well they said that 2nd one until they found out that most change people can get from food stamps is 99 cents.
-If he hadn't turned a blind eye on aids it wouldn't be the epidemic it is today.
Actually I could go on all day but this is just making me furious. Remember when the US actually had a media? Now they all just read white house and pentagon press briefings and call it news.
