helped Afghan guerrillas defeat the Soviet army during the 1980s.

Wow. Talk about spin. Since 9/11 all the liberals could spin was that President Reagan funded Osama Bin Laden. Now this comes out and the Democrat wasn't funding Osam Bin Laden he was defeating the Soviet Union.
Which was the exact opposite of what most of the Democrats at the time wanted. They wanted Reagan to stop funding our military so that the Soviet Union would be able to stop funding their military so as to keep the Soviet Union in power.

Awesome; may I add that a large portion of the gay community accepts as sacred to idea that Ronald Reagan is responsible for the AIDS crisis due to his inaction and a refusal to fund studies because he hated gay people? You can't even debate them, it is an accepted fact.

If there is a "gay canon", it's in there!
