Why George (H) W Bush2 Still Matters, and Ronald Reagan, too

The last three Republican Chief Executives held sway over our once great Constitutional Republic for a full two decades. Let's briefly examine their accomplishments for a change of typical focus of this bombastic outlet for ant-progressive government rhetoric.

President Reagan is credited, somewhat accurately, with winning the Cold War against the Soviet Union.  So what, you say?  As Russia today is ascendant, and under Putin, even more aggressive in its pursuit of dominance over Europe, the Middle East and parts of Asia, the downfall of the USSR now seems to have been a nothing more than a bump in the road of totalitarian history.

Elsewhere, Mr. Reagan did little to confront either Iran or the Islamist Jihadists threatening all of western civilization with ever more virulent terror attacks.  Indeed, in dealing with Iran, Reagan's chief minion, the Ambassador of Silly Cakes, traded advanced weapons for American hostages, of which, Iran had no difficulty in replacing 2 for 1 whenever Ollie North closed a release deal.

On the domestic side of the ledger, President Reagan gave the Nation ammesty to 12,000,000 illegals coupled with then record setting deficit spending.  Well, at least he got it "right" on the Supreme Court nomination of Moma's Boy Justice Sutter - ranking with the conservative choices by Ike of Warren and Brennan.  Repubs sure can vet their high court appointments, you say?

Turning now to the Bush dynasty, let's expedite our consideration of their accomplishments by simply incorporating Reagan's litany of leadership failures by reference - watch my lips or more accurately fingers here - no sound fiscal policies while the National Debt grew exponentially and no strategy on the War on Terror, until the grand building plazas of NYC and DC were littered with more than 3,000 dead Americans.

As to the first duty of every President - preserving the Nation's sovereignty by securing the borders - of little or no concern of either Bush 1 or Bush 2, inasmuch as cheap labor is a worthy goal of every big business Repub.

In short, then, while Barrack Obama can take partial credit for the birth of the Nation's Tea Party Movement, those Bush guys are also significantly blame worthy bastard parents as well.  Rino's are  the bane of real conservative alternatives to the ever more intrusive Nanny State governance.  Indeed, where is Senator Robert Taft (R-Ohio) when we need him most?
