Basically yes. Personally I have not many issues with the conservative/republican ideas as they're meant to be. But when given the choice between modern Republicans and modern Democrats, usually it's a fairly easy choice for me. I know there are other sides as well but...well our system doesn't make that work most of the time.

 

Oops wasn't gonna post but since this isn't an argument post I'm safe...maybe....*ducks for cover*

You expressing your opinion is not damaging to the overall topic, regardless of who disagrees. Don't ever feel you have to be on the offensive, I quite enjoy your peaceful resolutions myself, even if I disagree with them.

Dear Lord. You know Conservatives are in a rut when being a Reagan Era Conservative is considered an improvement...

 

I miss when being a Conservative didn't suck, like Dwight D. Eisenhower or Calvin Coolidge, Those were the days.

 

JK

Coolidge gets an unfairly poor rep, I'll give you that.

 

I mean did you know that Raegan presided over the precursor to Obamacare with the Emergency Room law?

 

All politicians care about today is lining their own pockets. I may not agree with Obama and the liberals on a fair amount of legislation, but anything is better than the clowns claiming to be conservative atm

 

Like Trump isn't even a conservative >_>

 

Raegan was godly, tear down that wall son. Trickle Down Econ is what you're poking fun at I'm guessing? If you look at it closely Trickle Down Econ is quite similar to Communism in that big business will allow profit to enter the middle class, is the government being the sole monopoly not similar? It would ideally work if there was not corruption in said big business, which leads us right back to our current friends the "republicans"

Ronald Regan was a man who profited from numerous wars in the Middle East over his reinvigorated Cold War. He hired Osama Bin Laden, pulled out after the Afghani's won the front, and betrayed Bin Laden at the last minute, indirectly causing 9/11.

 

Reagan was a man whose only economic claim to fame was the gimmicky name he gave it. He took 60% of our Social Security treasury towards paying off the National Debt, causing Social Security in the mid 2000's to plummet. He privatized numerous corporations, then turned a blind eye when their faulty equipment, and poorly paid employees came to light. He made a living funding a stupid second Cold War and forcing people to watch and marvel at how "good" he was, all the while piggybacking off of the economic boom caused by Jimmy Carter's administration, then taking credit for it.

 

Reagan was the weasel who turned in his own acting coworkers to the House of Un-American Activities Board, causing the destruction of many lives.

 

But Ronald Reagan was my President, and I respect him as I should respect all of those who are elected into the Office of the United States of America. No matter what his decisions were, he did them with America in mind, and I acknowledge and respect that.

Well hiring Osama was brilliant, what he didn't have foresight to do was either 1) have the weapons deactivate or 2) have the weapons have tracers so we could hunt down and eliminate Osama and the ones we trained

 

Trickledown did have it's problems, but the problem with the cooperation is not a new one. I'm saying Trickledown much like communism would work if you had Stalin level corruption crushing, something that Reagan did lack, I'll admit.

 

But then again the tax reduction and the tightening of interest rates by the Federal Reserve led to a record period of peacetime economic growth. He was looking to his time, and that's what he went for. I don't think we can fault him fairly for something that happened a decade after his presidency. Then again I'm very bis on this matter

 

I suppose my admiration is more deserved by Gorbachev rather than Reagan.

I'm a Raegen Era conservative, but trust me, the "republicans" and "conservatives" of the current era are making the old man roll in his damn grave.

 

That's because the republicans are being heartless or trying to appease the 1% or are like Huckabee and are just outright crazy.

 

Huckabee reminds me a tad of you in a positive sense anyway. I respect the guy even if don't really agree with him. His willingness to voice his unpopular opinion in the face of adversity won't be enough to grant him presidency but its fair enough for me to respect him as a person even if I don't respect his values. But I respect yours Winty.

Coolidge was witty but he didn't exactly help end the depression >_>. I prefer the Republicans from the civil war era.

I'm more independent but if one was adamant that I give them a straight awnser I'd say moderately conservative. I don't really agree with the democrats foolish spending and federal issued healthcare. I think we should give the states more power to handle some issues.

Coolidge couldn't really do anything about the ensuing Depression. Nobody foresaw it happening and it's not like Coolidge could have regulated the loans and credit. Nobody would have believed him and he would receive a lot of flak.

 

Also, we were mostly talking about Conservatism, not the Republican Party. This is because the Republican party was the Liberal party until the election of Warren G. Harding.
