Wolfie, short of the Soviet collapse, which is a great accomplishment, what else? Handling WWII is rather significant or bringing the nation back from the Great Depression. Greatest in the 20th century is laying it on a bit thick. Whatever you desire to remember him for if fine, but do not carry his policy forward another day. He is known for needing a national bailout to keep America from also collapsing as did the Soviets. You keep him as a hero, I'll remember him as an actor that played a good part.

  I'd say the Soviet collapse is in question also-as the CIA predicted in the late 70's that the soviet Union would collapse in about 10 years. It did-Maybe Regan pushed it a little.

      LOL
      Rewriting history again. He outspent them on defense. Remember the liberals spoofing it calling it Star Wars? That technology worked and the Soviets knew it would. They collapsed because they spent themselves out of money trying to compete.

        >>They collapsed because they spent themselves out of money trying to compete.
        They they ran out of money because they got trapped in a quagmire called Afghanistan & couldn't get out. Sound familiar?

        That was one problem. The other bigger one was trying to keep up with "Star Wars" as the Liberals called it. They said it would never work but it is part of our defensive armament now. It has been demonstrated several times.
