Website about Reagan corruption!

Revisionism of the ravages of the Reagan regime rules the roost in the right-wing media.

To hear them tell it, you'd think Ronald Reagan ended the Cold War - even though he actually prolonged it. You'd think ol' Rappin' Ronnie ushered in an unprecedented era of economic prosperity - even though the American economy has become worse in almost every year since he took power.

The media's worship of Reagan has led to a serious effort to name a public landmark after Reagan in every county in America.

But now I've found a website that exposes the corruption that defined the Reagan administration - corruption that old dudes like me remember all too well. The Gipper led the most corrupt administration in the country's history - with the exception of anyone named Bush, of course. And this website discusses it in hairy detail:

Indeed, shortly after Reagan left office, one book noted that in the sheer number of officials involved in corruption probes, "the record of his administration was the worst ever."

Just setting the record straight, people.

We need to debunk the revisionists who heap praise upon Reagan. That way, conservatives might be discouraged from similarly putting a revisionist happy face on the Bush years.
