Third Party Follies

Only a Sith deals in absolutes.

You gonna actually add anything to this conversation or just harass people that have a different point of view than you? You know exactly what you do in every thread..

I'm going to continue to be right about Roosevelt being the face of the Progressive movement. And you are going to continue to post nothing while hoping other people post something you can piggyback off of, just like every other thread.

So, are you going to do Chanti the reciprocal courtesy of answering her question since she answered yours, or what?

only one that matters is FDR and if we could bring him back from the dead along with Reagan they could just rule us all forever..

Reagan implemented sweeping new political and economic initiatives. His supply-side economic policies, dubbed "Reaganomics", advocated tax rate reduction to spur economic growth, control of the money supply to curb inflation, economic deregulation, and reduction in government spending. In his first term he survived an assassination attempt, escalated the War on Drugs, and fought public-sector labor. Over his two terms, his economic policies saw a reduction of inflation from 12.5% to 4.4%, and an average annual growth of real GDP of 3.44% Foreign affairs dominated his second term, including ending of the Cold War, the bombing of Libya, and the Iran–Contra affair. Publicly describing the Soviet Union as an "evil empire", he transitioned Cold War policy from détente to rollback, by escalating an arms race with the USSR while engaging in talks with Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev, which culminated in the INF Treaty, shrinking both countries' nuclear arsenals.[1] During his famous speech at the Brandenburg Gate, President Reagan challenged Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev to "tear down this wall!" Months after the end of his term, the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Union collapsed soon thereafter.

So is that a concession that you don't know anything about Teddy Roosevelt so you are just trying to move the goalposts and talk about FDR instead? Don't answer that, it was rhetorical.

Now you tell me when a Republican did anything good for the country.

Nixon created the EPA, I'm surprised nobody bothered to mention that (or did I miss it?)

Nope. You were the first, but we know how the modern Republican party objects to the modern EPA.

but he accuses me of not posting anything significant.

Perhaps if we get ride of a few hundred/thousand regulations it would be worth getting behind again.

Back to shouting? It doesn't help, unless you are going for humor.

I thought about discussing environmental law with you and then I remembered I could be playing Final Fantasy.

So much for any kind of adult conversation tonight.
