Reagan had a hand in mounting voter fraud and lack of confidence in elections....

Remember when Reagan undermined the confidence we all had in our elections?

Reagan worshiper Scott Walker must have forgotten the Gipper's many faults and missteps that prompted so much voter fraud.

Republicans continue to name everything for God like Ronald Reagan.

Stephen Colbert shows us how desperate Republicans are to follow leaders and deify them with ridiculous naming tributes, like Darrell Issa's proposal to name the U.S. coastal waters the "Ronald Wilson Reagan Exclusive Economic Zone."

Reagan on Gun Control....

“This is a matter of vital importance to the public safety ... While we recognize that assault-weapon legislation will not stop all assault-weapon crime, statistics prove that we can dry up the supply of these guns, making them less accessible to criminals.”

“I do not believe in taking away the right of the citizen for sporting, for hunting and so forth, or for home defense. But I do believe that an AK-47, a machine gun, is not a sporting weapon or needed for defense of a home.”

“Certain forms of ammunition have no legitimate sporting, recreational, or self-defense use and thus should be prohibited.”

“With the right to bear arms comes a great responsibility to use caution and common sense on handgun purchases.”

“Every year, an average of 9,200 Americans are murdered by handguns, according to Department of Justice statistics. This does not include suicides or the tens of thousands of robberies, rapes and assaults committed with handguns. This level of violence must be stopped.”

“I think maybe there could be some restrictions that there had to be a certain amount of training taken.”

“Well, I think there has to be some [gun] control.”

Reagan a lot like Obama on Taxing the Rich.

Think Progress did a nice job of editing Reagan and Obama together to make their point; tax cuts for the wealthy are fair. This video is easy enough for even a tea party knuckle head to understand.
