I am no fan of Ronald Reagan, but I couldn't let this stuff go by.

This happened under Nixon, not Reagan.  Remember?

I am glad that Reagan finally saw the light, and withdrew support from Marcos.
It's true that Reagan supported Marcos before the Philipine elections.  Every
U.S. President has done the same thing since Marcos took over.

Amusing at best.  Ever heard of Israel, where they hold free elections?
When was the last election in Libya?  What good is Qadaffi trying to spread
with his terrorist attacks?  What is Qadaffi's Jewish background (that's a
new one on me!).
