“The film is so unabashedly venerating… that it ultimately does its subject a disservice,” Bellafante complained, adding later in her review that “nowhere” in the documentary “is the downside of the massive deregulation that Reagan eventually implemented given much attention.”

To the author...

That's because there is no downside, you commie b*tch.

My first thought too, without the extra verbiage. I can not help but reflect on the book "Witness", by Whittaker Chambers(sp), which outlines the early ambitions of communists in America. One was to infiltrate the media and influence it. What we see with this...er...critic is a hand-me-down commie wannabe. She does not have the guts nor the dreams of her predecessors. She is a half-pint Marxist with the unremarkable talent of being a first class whiner.

There is if you are incapable of competing. In a related note, I look forward to the NYT critique of Gore's little film. I'm sure it is just FULL of the sort of contrary points of views from theory critics she demands.

Not to mention the fact that some of the biggest deregulations, such as the S&L's, were done by Carter, not Reagan. That one arguably did cause some trouble, but nothing this economic illiterate would understand.
