Reagan is more about a myth at this point in time than an actual man with real history. Can you imagine how angry these people would be at Obama if he had given the same amnesty Reagan did? I’ll grudgingly and I hate hate doing this to a lunatic like Glenn Beck but at least Glenn Beck doesn’t act like Reagan was this saint. Newt and the others meanwhile act like Reagan was this perfect conservative. If Reagan was what they imagine him to be, he would have never talked with Gorbachev since so much as engaging in talks with a Communist would be seen as bad to them.
