Title: Makes Reagan seem too wimpy
Review: Peggy Noonam probably means well, but she makes Reagan out to be rather soft. Reagan was a good man, and he wasn't the kind of person who let laws get in his way. That's why we elected him. Carter was about as goodie-two-shoes as you can get. Carter was nothing *but* character. That was the problem.Reagan had a dark side and that is *why* he was great. Reagan could be calculating: he was a pretty pro-choice as Governor of California, but he Mr. Pro-life when he ran for President. Why? Any republican who wants to be Gov of California had better be liberal on social issues (like Arnold) but no pro-choice Republican will ever win the primaries.Give Reagan his due. He led our country against the commies and he didn't let "character" get in the way of winning. He didn't let "character" get in the way of funding the Contras against the communist foothold in Nicaragua. For God, for country, but not some mommas boy who always told the truth. That was the real Reagan.
