Tell the world the truth about Reagan.
Ronald Reagan is no savior. He didn't "win the Cold War" or "Whip Inflation." In fact, his extremist policies and contempt for American Institutions and regular Americans nearly wrecked America and caused untold suffering. The pro-Reagan propaganda is pathological deification of a mean and reckless reactionary who harmed people all around the planet. Here's the real Reagan record:
Reagan is to blame for Iran-Contra "Arms for Hostages" crimes and for supporting Dictators and Death Squads that raped and murdered Americans and their own citizens. He hired and empowered 140+ Crooks and Cads who were Convicted, Indicted or Resigned under clouds of suspicion, including several Cabinet-Level officials!
Reagan's Anti-environment policies let polluters harm and kill children and adults and his EPA Scandals showed he entrusted criminals to protect us from harm. Homelessness sky-rocketed when Reagan's policies threw men, women and children out on the street. The Department of Housing Scandals showed Reagan's friends and officials stole $millions from taxpayers which should have helped house the poorest of the poor.
We lost $Trillions in the S&L Scandals, when Reagan slashed regulations on thrifts he also removed oversight protections, letting criminals run amok costing taxpayers $trillions. Reagan squandered our money on $980 Toilet Seats $1200 Mr. Coffee Machines and claimed that this graft "Won the Cold War," even as his draconian cuts waged War on middle class, working and poor families. Reagan's waste, graft, and mismanagement caused massive deficits we still haven't repaid.
Reagan hurt our kids by slashing child immunization and child nutrition, undermining basic and higher education - essentially sabotaging the next generation of Americans. Reagan was personally a Racist as shown by his bigoted Lies about Welfare Queens and racist policies which rolled back decades of equal opportunity and equal protection.
Reagan armed terrorists and terrorist states. This makes Reagan the father of al Qaeda and a sponsor of international terrorism. Reagan also blocked and undermined international efforts to control the spread of WMDs - Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Weapons. Reagan's gross misjudgments and immorality threaten us today. Reagan risked World War III with reckless provocations and foolhardy policies. We're fortunate when the fluke coup toppled Gorbachev it didn't lead to nuclear war.
From all of this we know the orgy of Reagan-worship far surpasses any reasonable grieving. Tell the world you know Reagan is overrated - at best - with these items. Proceeds support anti-Bush/Cheney activism.
