RIP Reagan (Jun 06 2004 03:58 GMT) - I remember Reagan primarily as a (literally) absent minded puppet on Spitting Image but it seems he still drives some people in the US crazy. Here was a man who defeated Communism--a force with killed millions in Stalin's Gulag's and impoverished tens of millions more on the Eastern side of the Iron Curtain, and navigated through the very real threat of nuclear armageddon, with nary a shot fired. Clearer minds would honor, or at least acknowledge, such an achievement, but not the frothers at Slate. This is how they understand the fall of the Iron Curtain and the avoidance of the end of all Life on the planet Earth:Reagan can probably claim some credit for ending the Cold War, but his principal weapon, characteristically, was spending—the Soviets bankrupted themselves trying to keep up with the Pentagon's weapons-buying binge through the 1980s. |
