Forget Bush — Not Reagan By: Michael Reagan
Forget Bush — Not Reagan

By: Michael Reagan
If some media reports are correct — a dangerous assumption nowadays when media skepticism has given way to unquestioned Obama worship — former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush says the GOP needs to abandon nostalgia for the Reagan era.
I’m inclined to doubt the accuracy of that report since Jeb Bush probably was the best governor Florida ever had and one who clung ferociously to the Republican principles my father, Ronald Reagan, exemplified.
Even if he did say something silly like that, my argument with him and Mitt Romney and the other participants in the so-called listening tour is not about my dad, but about the absurdity of a listening tour designed to tutor Republican bigwigs on what the public really wants from government.
My short answer is that I want the government to get the hell out of our way and let us act like the free people our founding fathers wanted us to be, not like subjects of an all-knowing, all-powerful federal government.
The listening tour is nothing but Republican gimmickry. The reality is that, had they been listening during the past four years of the Bush presidency, they would have seen the disaster of 2006 coming and they would have seen the catastrophe of 2008 coming.
Instead, they turned a deaf ear to the Republican conservatives not only on Capitol Hill but also to those out across America.
They lost in 2006 and 2008 because they stopped listening to the “nostalgiaâ€Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Wake up America!
From Article
isn’t nostalgia for the Reagan era we need to forget, but the big government, wild-spending of Jeb Bush’s brother George’s administration
How the H can anyone compare Bush's spending to the spending of Obama and his Communists in Washington? Did the author of the comment stated above forget about the Stimulus bill with 800 Special Interest Ear marks in it? of the Bank Bail Out's? Or Tarp? Or bailing Out the Auto Industry? And big government, Obama has taken over our health care system and is converting it to a Socialist system. Obama has legislated the hate crimes bill that will in fact undermine freedom of speech, and he is working on taking away talk radio and any other communications modality that doesn't follow the party line. Obama is even tying to take away the American people right to grow their own food. Bush was bad. But Obama is 100 times worse; he is dismantling our constitutional rights.
When the Dem's go out and canvass on behalf of Amnesty that's supposed to be a good thing? And the Rep's go out and ask the American people what they need and the Rep's are accused of being gimmicky. Nonsense. We all know that the Dem’s are doing all they can to keep the Rep’s from balancing things in Washington.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Well now both Reagan's sons are against George Bush Jr.[/b]
I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
