Watch Jon Stewart WRECK the Delusional Right-Wing Version of Reagan’s Legacy! (Video)
by Sky Palma
Ukraine
has been at the forefront of world news. As usual, partisan factions
back in the U.S. are fighting for what the narrative should be regarding
yet another foreign crisis.
Who better than Jon Stewart to break down the silliness of these narratives?
Of
course, Republicans are headlining their narrative with the name of
Ronald Reagan, and Stewart did a brilliant job of slamming Fox News for
their blaming the Ukraine crisis on Obama’s “failed leadership” --
claiming that if Reagan was at the helm, things would be different
because he’d “take action.”
Of
course, Reagan “took action” when he was in office. Now, that action
may have brought us the Mujahideen in Aghanistan (which he armed and
funded), which later gave us Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden, or Saddam
Hussein’s chemical weapons (yup, supplied by Reagan), or the death
squads that roamed Central America, killing innocent civilians and a few
Catholic nuns and priests for good measure...
Shall we go on?
Let’s not. Enjoy the clip:
