Part of the history revisionists (like Harry) have is they like to relate to an event that happened 30 years or so ago under a completely different set of circumstances and global issues to something that is going on today. Simplistic, but that's how Wishy-Washy, Never-Never Land liberals think. |

Simplistic, but that's how Wishy-Washy, Never-Never Land liberals think. I'm not revising anything. Reagan and his gang broke a serious law, sold weapons to the Iranians, and used the proceeds to bolster murderous right-wing extremists in Nicaragua. Reagan, George H.W. Bush, et al, lied to Congress and the American people about this, and, of course, that traitor Oliver North was implicated up to his eyeballs. That's not "revisionism," that's what happened. |
