Just wondering. I know this is old news but that also means that there really is clearly a right and wrong answer. Reagan was right. He was right that the Cold War could be won and about how to win it. He was right that the tax cuts would spur economic growth and not exacerbate inflation. He was right that ending gasoline price controls would end the gasoline shortages (well, anyone who got above a C in Macro 101 would have known that, but I guess Carter must have missed that class).
Have any of the Libs, who were wrong about EVERYTHING in the 1980s, admitted they were wrong about ANYTHING?

I am definitely in the minority here, but I believe they were dead wrong in the 60's and 70's as well.

I admit I was wrong about Reagan and his policies in the 1980s.
But don't call me a Lib. I was a leftist in those days.

Have you ever heard a Lib admit to any wrong doing? No the left wing press won't let that happen

More hogwash. Saying it's true doesn't prove it. Reagan was wrong on everything but tax cuts - and those only work in the short term. care to back up your words with more than baloney?

No way they're communist apologists. They loved the basic principles of communism. To them communism was "fair."
