Where does the time go? I didn’t realize Ronald Reagan has been dead for a year. Has it really been a year?
I wrote this post the day he died. Read what other bloggers are saying:
Brutally Honest: “The (sensible) world misses Ronald Reagan and what the man embodied.”
Right in Texas: “Unarguably, one of this country’s best presidents…”
Iowa Voice: “Reagan will not only be remembered as the man who brought down the Soviet Union and liberated millions (all without firing a shot), but also because he appealed to our best qualities: hard work, self reliance, and compassion for our fellow man.”
Trey Jackson asks for favorite quotes, and Mister Politics has a video tribute.
Media:
Washington Times: “[I]n the meantime, Michael Reagan fondly remembers his dad. He credits his father with helping him renew his Christian faith.”
Douglas Brinkley: “What Reagan was trying to engineer–using the World War II generation and the American flag as his platform–was the creation of a combustible patriotism, one that would spread like wildfire…”
Unrelated Note: Very informative 1974 opinion piece about Watergate and journalism.
