United States News Title: Obama channeling Reagan? Hardl--- Gipper to O-Force: There you go again One of the least credible tales to come out of President Obama’s recent ideological makeover is the story that he is modeling his presidency on Ronald Reagan’s. Time Magazine asserted this week that “there is no mistaking Obama‘s increasing reliance on [Mr. Reagan’s] career as a helpful template for his own.” Just to keep this preposterous public relations ploy in perspective, we have compiled a handy list to remind people how little these two men have in common: Reagan: Fostered national pride in the military. Reagan: We begin bombing in five minutes. Reagan: Made big government a bad word. Reagan: Just say no. Reagan: Stood up to the Soviets. Reagan: “Tear down this wall.” Reagan: “Concentrated power has always been the enemy of liberty.” Reagan: Put labor unions in their place. Reagan: National health care is socialism. Reagan: “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.” Reagan: Morning in America. Reagan: “Man is not free unless government is limited.” Reagan: “Government programs, once launched, never disappear.” Reagan: “The best minds are not in government.” Reagan: “I did not take the oath I have just taken with the intention of presiding over the dissolution of the world’s strongest economy.” Reagan: Our adversaries “counted on America to be passive. They counted wrong.” Reagan: “Trust, but verify.” Reagan: “We have a rendezvous with destiny.” Reagan: Abortion is murder. Reagan: Thou shalt not speak ill of any Republican. Reagan: Appointed the wise Justice Scalia Reagan: A citizen-politician Reagan: Proposed a missile defense Reagan: “Go ahead, make my day.” Reagan: The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: Reagan: “Let’s not go overboard in setting and enforcing tough emission standards from man-made sources.” Reagan: Middle class values Reagan: “Information is the oxygen of the modern age.” Reagan: Supported the death penalty Reagan: “I know that for America there will always be a bright dawn ahead.” Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 1.

Can you edit the title? It should say "Hardly." Somehow the Y got lost...
