You're too funny, I want to be like you
Say, since when have old people reached younger ones with their feeble efforts to be sarcastic?

Notice how Bush waited until the US's oil supply might be in danger, to intervene. Like father like son I guess  .

BTW, I read Ronald Reagan's autobiography... do you really want to know his thoughts about this mess... he had tons and tons of disagreements with Israel during his adminstration. |
Bush should show some respect to the entire region by learning what the conflict is about in the first place. Israel's existence is threatened and it will continue to be as long as the Palestinians harbor, feed, and support terrorism. The United States would be doing the same thing if it were in Israel's shoes.
The only... ONLY reason Bush is telling Israel to pull out is because the Arab countries are threatening to cut off the oil. If they do, then Bush will have to start a war to get the oil back. And he doesn't want to start a war.
Of course Reagan had tons of disagreements in the past. Reagan was an ultra-conservative, pro-corporate, white collar politician. And Israel isn't any of those things.
BTW, Reagan was in the advanced stages of Alzheimers in the lat 70's. It just goes to show that mental capacity isn't a requirement for the presidency. You can get elected twice just based on how good you look on TV and if you tell America what it wants to hear.
The Reagan legacy was one of corporate prosperity at the expensive of the working class.

Bull, Israel should show some respect, and Palestine isn't helping with the current situation. Both are pigs who just can't live with each other.

Wrong. America itself has enough oil to supply itself, and it gets more of its oil from the Gulf of Mexico, Mexico itself, Venezuela and now Russia. This isn't the 70s, so stop looking at the past.

His alzheimers didn't come until the 90s numnuts.

Bullshit. I know it was not. The Reagan legacy was a tide that lifted all income brackets. You can't just accept that because you are so damn biased. Working class? Pfft... wake the hell up... the US isn't an Czarist Russia. Reagan benefited the middle class, and his precedesser, Carter, shrunk the middle class's income. I don't appreciate people like you making stupid judgements.

America imports 52 percent of its oil... 42 percent from the Middle East. I think a 42 percent cut in oil would cause problems.
Second, you know two things about Reagan's effect on American economics, jack and ****, and jack left town.
Reagan busted unions which preserve workers rights and fair wages. Sure he created more jobs, but he did away with higher paying jobs and created more lower paying jobs.
Stupid judgements? I am minoring in political science and economics at DePaul University in Illinois. I just finished a 20 page dissertation on the US Economy from 1975-2000. You look like you are about 16 or 17 years old. I doubt you know anything except from what you see on TV.
My suggestion... get and education, then flame people on online message boards AFTER you know what it is you are talking about.
Alzheimers in the 90's? Apparantly you never saw any of Reagan's TV addresses to the nation. Half the time he couldn't remember to read the cue cards and he trailed off on some scewed tangent topic. The guy was an invalid. He was a puppet for the Republican party so they could exert their "rich get richer" agenda.
Between 1981 and 1989, the annual cost of living in the US went from about $26,000 to $35,000, while the average mean income decreased from $32,000 to $30,000. Reagan helped the top 1% of the population get richer. BECAUSE THAT'S WHO REPUBLICANS REPRESENT!

I'm short-sighted? Gee... Arab countries don't have real economies.
They have a few hundred oil billionaires making money hand over foot selling oil to the West.
Do you know what life is like in the Arab world? Obviously not.
