OFFICIALLY SICK OF THE REAGASM.

This is going on a bit too long. everybody has gone to see THIS site (look at the content, then look at what site it is). Again, i'm not one those that got out my noise maker and party favors when Reagan died, but i'm also a little tired of hearing how Reagan singlehandedly solved all world problems. Atrios puts together some of the list i've had floating around my head, so when you read this, you can see into my head as i'm watching the news. the thoughts tend to go like this:

ACTUALLY, NO...
...The House and Senate did not both come under Republican rule during Reagan's time. (you hear that Tim Russertt?)
...The Berlin Wall did not come down when Reagan was in office.
...Reagan is not the president who left office with the highest approval rating in modern times.
...Reagan was not "the most popular president ever."
...Reagan did not preside over the longest economic expansion in history.
...Reagan did not shrink the size of government.
...Reagan did preside over what was at the time the "biggest tax cut in history" but it was almost instantly followed up by the "biggest tax increase in history." (in BOTH terms of his Presidency)
...Reagan was not "beloved by all." He was loved by some, liked by some, and hated by some with good reason.

Honorable mention:

Remember when he said he wouldn't negotiate with terrorists and then authorized the sale of weapons to terrorists in exchange for hostages...i guess he just gave them what they wanted. SEE! no negotiations!
