Now they recognise Reagan's greatness but that thread cannot be 'Bumped' because it was prior to 9/4/01 and is locked.

I think Sullivan's eloquent tribute to Ronald Reagan deserves to be revived, for those who haven't read it.

Great piece!
Though, I could have done without the appallingly self-referential mention of Michael Portillo. Yes Andrew, we know you're British. We know you're a homosexual. We know that you have a hard-on for William Hague, now get over yourself!
Anyway, it was a compelling piece, which should be read by anyone who's interested in a blow-by-blow comparison of one of America's finest, with one of our nation's worst.

I'm of a mind that the diminished memory and understanding of what that man, Mr. Clinton, was doing to our country was a blessing for President Reagan.

Reagan got a lot right. Especially the big things. But the WOD wasn't one of them. Neither was immigration.
People that demand Bush get it all right "or else" should reflect on that.

Yes it does take time to open eyes as to who was great, and we now know that President Regan was one of the greatest, and guess what? President Bush will be another one.

In the wake of his passing, some of the best obituaries I've ever read.
Ronald Reagan is not done inspiring Americans, that's for sure.
