| He waited because Obama is about to lock this shit up. If the lead was bigger he would have endorsed Obama a long time ago. If he had any sack he would have endorsed him or hillary after he ducked out of the race. Everyone wants to be on the side of the winner. | ||||

| Yeah, I do. It wasn't sanctioned with his authorization and Oliver North was the head-official in the whole arms-for-hostages scandal. Trust me the President doesn't have the all seeing eye, he has to listen to executive branch of information. This was all done under the nose of him. He was inept, which made him a bad president. Though his side will always argue about "fiscal conservatism" and how he spoke-out against the Soviet Empire. Great things, still doesn't dismiss how this major fuck-off ruined his legacy as a President of the United States. GOP act as if this scandal never happened. | ||||

| I think it's a little naive to believe he didn't know about it. It's more likely North simply took the fall to protect the President than it is that the President didn't know what was going on and wasn't involved in trying to get around the laws passed by Congress But I agree, the GOP ignore this and praise Reagan like he was the second coming | ||||

Maybe Reagan. He was taking mad-shits on the Democrats during his 8 years and rightfully so... Until that whole Iran/CIA Contra scandal, the idiot.
