Remember that time that Reagan challenged Gorbachev to a 1 on 1 fight to the death for the future of the world on top of the Berlin Wall?
Reagan spent billions of dollars on good, old fashioned free market personal trainers and became the finest killing machine the west has ever known. Meanwhile, the inept, centrally planned training program of Soviet Russia left Gorby completely unprepared. In fact, Gorbachev carries the scars of that battle on his head to this day.
Anyways, we all know what happened next. Reagan granted Gorbachev mercy in exchange for his agreement to dismantle the Soviet Union, liberalize the market, and hold democratic elections. He then immediately launch a "Contra" against Iran to address the rising threat of islamic fanaticism. Unfortunately this mission was mischaracterized by the liberal media. And then his successor didn't have the stones to deal with Saddam when he had the chance. And then the Clintons came along and ruined everything.
One little known fact about Reagon though was his work in the private sector. After he stepped down from the presidency, Reagan anticipated the world's greatest coming crisis: the lack of innovation in controllers for new video game systems. He immediately set about developing a motion sensitive, two part controller in a joint venture with Nintendo. While he unfortunately couldn't live to see his dream fulfilled, we all owe him our respect and gratitude for this, and all his other accomplishments.
