Let's get this straight: Obama is NOTHING like Ronald Reagan and should leave off that lie.

There is nothing more insulting than to listen to Obama claim the name of Ronald Reagan as he runs this country away from the traditions and societal values that Reagan both typified and pushed forward.  The fact that Barack Hussein Obama does not believe that "government is the problem" is proof enough that the two men should never be considered to be partners at any level.

When B Obama makes that comparison,  he insults to the highest order,  those of us who knew Ronald Reagan and proves himself a fool in making that comparison. I was a Democrat until Reagan.  I voted for the moron,  Jimmy Carter and still have a soft spot for JFK. I was in my mid 30's when Reagan became president and Hussein Obama is nothing,  nothing like Ron Reagan.

After 18 months, Reagan took unemployment
from a higher rate to a lower rate as each
is compared to Obama.  

Reagan would have never employed a known communist (van Jones) or a Maoist sympathizer (Anita Dunn).  He would have never raised taxes without working to reduce spending (his Democrat congress did that for him).  Reagan challenged the Russians and won.  Obama has never come close to such a strategy, coward that he is.  Reagan would have never sided with Honduran Communists or sought to appease the likes of Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro.  Reagan would have never sat on his butt,  watching Russia complete a $5 billion dollar military transaction with Venezuela and a gift of more than a 100 land to air missiles.  Reagan would have never, ever,  turned his back on Israel or appease a rogue Muslim regime.   Reagan would have never worked outside congressional review or challenged the Supreme Court in public displays of disrespect and contempt.    He would have never forced government order upon religious institutions or send guns into Mexico for no good reason.  He would have never treated the opposing political party with contempt,  as is the daily habit of H Obama.

Reagan would have never compromised missile defense as Obama has done.  He would have never acted unilaterally to establish and enforce his personal agenda,  as Obama has done and promises to continue to do so.

Reagan would have never sat on a stage with the Russian president,  patted the enemy on the arm,  and promised that after the election, he would be more agreeable to Russian leadership.

Reagan came into power after the worst recession since the Great Recession,  and turned things around in his first term.  Obama is still waiting to organize his first lemonade stand.

Guaranteed, 30 years from now,  Obama will not be revered by anyone in the opposing party as Reagan is,  today.

Reagan once said this: "Democracy is worth dying for, because it’s the most deeply honorable form of government ever devised by man."   Heck,  Obama does not even believe this.

Reagan argued for the continuation of a continuing effort to establish and reestablish freedom.  Obama is not capable of coming up with such profundity as is represented in this Reagan observation:  "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."

Instead,  Obama's wife offers this observation as to the Obama Agenda for this country . . . .  and it is nothing like Reagan's:

"Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."  --  Michelle Obama, May of 2008.

Point of post:  Democrats cannot offer up Obama on his own terms,  so they pretend he is someone else.  Geeeeesh.
