Since the 60s the only one I can think of is RR.

Who was the one in the 60s? Nixon? It certainly wasn't the other two.

I am not even that sure I would put Reagan on the list. Maybe GHWB ...
until he screwed up and did not get the hell out of there after he won
the war we went to fight. That bumped him off my list, along with
everyone since..

RR is the only one on the list.


Reagan spent too much money on dead end DoD projects. I suppose you
could say it was a down payment on bankrupting the Soviets but I think
they were on borrowed time, even without Star Wars.
I am also not sure we are better off without them. We traded Gorbachev
for Putin and inherited all of the factional fighting in the Bulkans.
I also wonder if we did the wrong thing pumping up OBL and his Taliban
gang in Afghanistan.
We should have just let the Soviets grind themselves down there.

Sometimes a dictator holding down terrorists is a good thing,
particularly if we can just watch from 8,000 miles away and stay out
of it.



Ronald Reagan...hehehe. The goof who sold deadly arms to our enemy, the
Iranians, violating the law, and then used the money to help the Contras
toss out their government, and suffered from Alzheimers in his 2nd term.
Yeah, that's the ticket. L(
