Forget the silly labels. Reagan was a Conservative. He understood that big Government was not the solution, it was the problem. That is the same concept, which led to the American Revolution, when in the period after the French & Indian War, Britain for the first time began to exercise real Governmental control over colonial life.

Some of those, whose antics you seem to be trying to justify under newspeak, do not have a clue of any of that. They are quite happy with big Government. But that is not the American tradition, and hence not Conservative. Can the word games and look at questions of the allocation & use of power. That is what the political debate comes down to.
