Good lord...
Okay, we all know the left LOVES to re-write history, but DAMN. This is loopier than anything I've seen any post-modernist deconstructionist history major crank out, and it's appearing in "the nation's #1 newspaper."
It's like they're not even trying to be believable any more. Reagan as a "peaceful uniter?" WTF?
Actually, I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. The left has gone so flaming, flying, flipping, pants-shitting insane trying to find a way, ANY way, to break up the "neocon conspiracy" that they've been trying to cozy up to right-wing nutcases like Pat Buchanan and David Duke, thinking they'll split the neocons and make a Democratic victory possible. Now they're trying to posthumously inaugurate Ronald Reagan into the ranks of the left, thinking that, since Reagan practically defined the neocon mindset, convincing the neocons he was a feckless peacenik will make them turn on themselves.
Of course, the hard part is the convincing. I really don't think there are any neocons who are that stupid.
