Bush Country by John Podhoretz.

It's isn't as insane a concept as I first thought. I checked it out and I can tell by the events being referred to that this book was written right after the Misson Accomplished banner was hung out. At that time, if you were a supply-sider neocon, you had reason to crow. Bush was on a string of short-term wins, and the entire foreign and domestic policies of the U.S. had yet to turn to crap.

If you are a supply-sider neocon you still think he's the best president ever, except for maybe Raygun.

Thanks, I'll keep an eye out for it next time I'm in the library.

That's blasphemy!

No one is as good as teh Raygun.

I voted against Reagan every time he ran for anything.

I watched Sicko last week. It was quite... "informatively fun" (is there such a term?) although not sure how accurate

Wow. How old are you?

59....I reached voting age just as Reagan was running for Governor for the first time.

...Wait a minute! That's wrong. The first time Reagan ran, he ran against Pat Brown, right? I voted for him when he rain against Unruh. So...what?...did I miss the first election? Crud, my memory of ancient history is covered with dust.

Edit: Right, I was wrong. I wasn't old enough to vote when he beat Pat Brown. I voted against him when he successful ran for re-election against Jesse "Money is the Mother's Milk of Politics" Unhuh.
