Are you two honestly that dumb? You two can't possibly be bitching and moaning that the man who was president for 8 years, won two landslide victories, credited for ending the Cold War (whether he did or not, he gets the credit), and reshaped the face of American politics is getting extensive media coverage days after his death.

call it what you like but i don't share the view that much of the media puts out about reagan, i was posting about these 'i love reagan' clips that keep replaying.. i turned on the regular broadcast tv for like 15 minutes several days in a row and couldnt find much more than reagan eulogies that painted a one sided story, ignoring the results of his 'well intentioned' policies that i don't actually credit to him as much as the people behind his administration.
i can't sum it up for you.. other's here listed some of the facts and accomplishments left out in reagans 'legacy' one thing that comes to mind that hasn't been mentioned is the obsenity of 'trickle down economics' that i think should be on his grave stone as a new way to enrich the slave owners. honestly, if the press went on to other more important news sooner we wouldnt have this discourse :/
here's one of the better ulogies that made it to regular press for what i consider my flavor of op/ed info:
