Ouch! Too far... too partisan. I never thought I'd live to see a day when I would call the Reagan era "halcyon" but at least it was a mixed bag and some were "conservatives" in the older meaning of the word. Unlike this crowd. James Watt was a mere hint at the warping of science in the service of religious fanaticism that is now taking place. The S&L scandal was midget compared to the trillion dollars being stolen from our kids as we speak. True, Reagan gambled with all our lives, pushing the Soviets to the brink of war. Had we not lucked out in a dozen ways, we might all have fried. But his gamble worked. He accelerated Marshall's program by a decade and the wall came down. If the right wing wants to give him all the credit... forgetign who designed the plan in the first place... let em. They want to put him on the $10 bill and paint his face on the moon. Idolatry. But I see more important things to object to. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
