It Was 11 Years Ago Today
By Mitch Berg
The Northern Alliance went though kind of a weird, macabre, inadvertent phase in the mid ’00s; people would pass away just after we got off the air on Saturday. Terry Schaivo; Pope John Paul II; and of course, Ronald Reagan, who passed away 11 years ago this afternoon.
Why was Reagan a success, in a way that seems to elude leaders since his time?

Reagan said: “ Government isn’t the solution, government is the problem” and then proceeded to spent money like a Keynesian, and run up the deficit.
Mr. Reagan also broke federal law by selling arms to Iran.
If Ben Elliot is gonna invoke Reagan, invoke all of him, and not just the parts you like.
