Personally, I'd like to thank Andrew Breitbart, Mike Flynn and the folks at Big Government, as well as the contributors here who have given folks at least a starting point to rally around. I would also like to wish them, and everyone whom I've met here a safe, and Blessed Holiday Season.
Viva la Revolution'!
I don't reckon we will hear a speech comparable to the one Reagan gave in his video clip here. We sure have sunk far from those days, eh?
Ronald Reagan created over 20M jobs…growing the country’s real GDP by almost 30% in the process. Those kind of results makes one wonder why Obama’s trillion-dollar spending plan would impress ANY-body, with his pledged 3.5M new and “saved” jobs (whatever those are)… a paltry figure 16.5M jobs shy of The Gipper’s towering accomplishment.
When others feared the USSR, and wanted to strike damaging deals like Jimmy Carter did, Reagan said "the Russians aren't 10-ft tall", and confronted them at great political risk. Unlike any previous president, he called them an "Evil Empire", then initiated an politically unpopular arms race that drove the USSR into the ground. Reagan won the expensive and dangerous 40 yr. Cold War without firing a shot… while criticized and demeaned ceaselessly by liberals in the media, academia, and the Democratic party.
Ronald Reagan was a man of valour, honor, and principle… and this misguided, habitually dishonest punk Obama couldn't hold The Gipper's jockstrap.

The most telling difference between Reagan, and the clown in the White House, is the fact that Reagan called the White House, 'The People's House' and meant it…Obama thinks of it as HIS house and We The People, have no place in it!! God Bless you Andrew and to all of your staff, for all the work you do, to make sure that WE know what is going on in 'OUR HOUSE'!!
Back when "Hope" meant something. Merry Christmas Ab and crew.
Merry Christmas all.
And what Cowboy said.
That speech makes me sad.
Our leaders are boys compared to him.
What struck me, with the advantage of knowing what happened while he was in office, is his purpose.
Who knew then when he made that speech what would happen?
I think he did.
If you are willing to think about it, that was an awesome achievement.
If you are not you have put us where we are today.
Now this is a President a Leader. Not this pencil neck you have in now. Anyway Merry Christmas to all.
WOW, What a contrast to what we have now. We need a new "Reagan" for today.
it took a carter for us to see the need for a reagan so maybe there is some hope after all. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY GOD BLESS!!!!
Reagan empowered America. Obama empowers himself.
Thank you for BG. Have a Merry Christmas.
With establishment Washington against him through the primaries, Reagan went on, and swept the field relieving America of the embarrassment that was Jimmah Carter, despite the MSM, who described Reagan as a senile, warmongering, rube. What was the key to this great man’s success? “Conservatism!” This despite his main adversary in the primaries, G.H.W. Bush calling his prescription (tax cuts, smaller govt.)for growing the economy as voodoo economics – - let us remember the same Bush said, “read my lips, no new taxes,” in 1988 convention speech, let America’s slide begin. So here we are thirty years later, and we have Jimmah Carter II, Bumbling Barry the Bolshevik, and the rest of his America hating minions in congress – - what will America do?
Merry Christmas!
God gave us Ronald Reagan in a grave black time in America. Americans prayed for a wise God fearing leader. Our prayers were answered. God can change Countries but not unless we ask him. Pray as a nation that God will intervene and bring us a wise, strong, Godly person to bring us back. God Bless the U.S.A. and Merry Christmas and a God Blessed New Year to ALL.
When Ronald Reagan was president we also had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash. With Obama we have no hope and no cash.
Merry Christmas to all!
Ronald Reagan was a real man. Obama is a gasbag and a wimp. Without the media propping him up, he'd still be just a community organizer yapping at the heals of crooked politicians and begging for a boost up.
Reagan's character made him walk tall long before any of us had ever heard his name.
Watch the new Obama parody….. a must see

You're right Cowboy, you won't hear that kind of speech ever again in the next three years. Have faith because truth and goodness will win in the end. Always does. You also have a safe Blessed and safe Holiday.
A Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukah to all. We will all get through this. Wounded, plundered and scarred but we will prevail. The "evilists" have been trying for decades to bring down this country but have failed even though this is the closest they have come to their goal. Stay vigilant, be prepared and help other patriots who were dealt the "obama" jobless card if you can.
With any luck, it will rain continually in Hawaii for the next few weeks while the dictator basks in his deathbill glory.
It brings tears to my eyes how far our nations leadership has fallen since that man sat in the White House. Today we are "no longer a Christian nation" but are the "fifth largest Muslim nation on Earth", according to our divisive, Marxist Salesman in Chief, and a Christmas ball of Mao in the White House is okay.
When will we have another great president? I pray for the sake of our way of life it is soon.
Happy Birthday JESUS
May you save and protect this great nation you helped to build
In JESUS name
AMEN
Ronald Reagan was a special man. I hope we get someone
like him, but I can't see anyone in the present bunch of
politicians that come close to him. President Reagan made
people proud to be Americans, this jerk in the WH now, tries
to make America look bad no matter where he goes. I'm
almost tempted to act like Rip Van Winkle and go to sleep
for the next 3 years.
Merry Christmas to all!!! And Thank You Andrew and staff for
this great site!!
Thank you for posting this video. I miss President Ronald Reagan. He truly loved this great country. I just hope and pray We the People can find another Ronald Reagan. Merry CHRISTmas.
Thank you for this sad but inspiring speech by President Reagan. He had many so many exemplary qualities, which are sadly missing in the majority of today’s politicians, such as loyalty, graciousness, integrity, intelligence, humility, and perseverance and courage in the face of adversity. Plus, he respected others because he respected himself.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone.
" . . they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness,
reap the same." (Job 4:8 KJV)
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a
man soweth, that shall he also reap." (Galatians 6:7 KJV)
But we do have change!
So what are the divine implications of passing the senate health care bill on Christmas eve?
On this Christmas Day . . .we pray for miracles. . .
Of world peace and respect for the value and beauty of ALL human beings.
AND. . . for the beginning of a successful, peaceful American revolution to overthrow oBOWma, Soros, and his Communist followers — through the ballot box.
MASSACHUSETTS VOTERS. . .you have the stage to start the peaceful overthrow in your January Senatorial elections.
Oh yeah, that's what a president is supposed to act and sound like. I couldn't tell right away because he wasn't blaming his predesessor or complaining about what his administration "inherited".
it's time the children were sent home and the adults were back in charge.
Thanks Biggov. This is a Commander-in-Chief.
Much work ahead in the coming months.
Merry Chrismas
This is what it was like to have a real man and a real Christian in the White House.
President Reagan, He was a Man and A Great One, He deserved to be called MR PRESIDENT ! Wasn't nice when our President liked and cared about We the People. When there was Adults in the WH. When they didn't put Mass Murders and Perverts on the Christmas Tree. When threats & intimidation was not allowed.

MORE TO GO WITH OBOZO
On a day which is all about hope and redemption, I wish all a Merry Christmas.
Hearing Readans speech points out the stark difference between a president who believes in us and one whoo is waiting, licking his chops for the first opportunitunity to shut us down and hand us over to the NWO.
I bet old Berry and all his left wing nutjobs's heads would explode if they were forced to listen to this clip.
" I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors
of the people under the pretense of taking care of them." Thomas Jefferson
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people
on any further movement by the socialist democratic party and their followers. Teach your children about America.
Show them your deepest love and respect for what we must return to……………..LIBERTY!!! FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am looking ahead to the excitement and thankfulness we will experience when the current resident
of our disgraced White House will be tossed out on his Obama. The only downside is we will have
to support his disgrace while he games the system, ala, Clintons, and provide the funds for his continued
anti American behavior. He will make Carter look like the proverbial choir boy in his continued sucking up to
leftish leaders around the world. His presence in world unrest will be felt for a considerable time.
As I was watching this speech, I was thinking he could be giving that same speech today, just supplant Poland for Iran or Venezuela, and it would be just as appropriate and meaningful. I, too, want to thank the true patriots who put this site, newsmax, the drudge report and others out there so people like myself can get real news and insight. Without them, the battle would be that much more difficult. Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah.
His record of achievement and success is still lied about by sniveling liberals to this day. That he succeeded in spite of the Democrat Congress of his day filled with Tip O'Neill and the filthy Teddy Kennedy's of his day makes his results even more astounding.
We need Reagan now more than ever.
And the pickpockets in Washington are about to take that "change" right out of your pocket…………….
Merry Christmas, Andrew. Welcome to my family.
Merry Christmas!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. Fresh air is so soothing when coming from the mouth of the most Honorable Renaldus Magnus. He espoused the greatness of America and its people. It's no wonder the LEFTIST SOCIALISTS hated
and despised him. He deeply loved us all. The LEFTSIST SOCIALISTS are the opposite. They hate us, America and this countrys rich and generous traditions. I trust the MILITARY is listening and paying attention!
A few years ago a friend and his wife had gone to the Czech Republic to visit her family. He said they had all gone out to dinner in a small restaurant in the town and on the wall was a large portrait of Reagan. Ronaldus Maximus helped liberate hundreds of millions from behind the Iron Curtain and he is beloved around the world. Hussein Obama on the other hand supports the tyrants: Chavez, Zelaya, palestinians. His meek remarks towards Iran’s brutality on its citizens were received as tacit approval.
Merry Christmas everyone, except for obama, pelosi and reid. I hope they have acid reflux all day.
Great anecdote! The world needs a strong American President, instead we have Witless Barry …wow!
I LOVED Ronald Reagan! I was 12 when he left office and cried. I miss his wisdom. He said what he meant and meant what he said. This man was a real president. He warned us of these communist. Too bad so many people ignored his warnings. Merry Christmas Comrads, now let's take our country back!
Andrew and the staff. Thank you and Merry Christmas. As for Ronald Reagan, a 21 gun salute!
There was a time when I called on God to save my country (Canada) and the answer was "no". You have to be ready for that answer.
We were taken off God's speed dial in 2005. I pray that America will not suffer the same fate. I am praying for you now that .ca is lost.
With reviewing the past Presidents, in my lifetime, I could always find something wrong with those that I liked, ok…But with President Reagan, I can't think of one single thing that he did, that I didn't like….Amen to that!
There is no light on the hill for Mr Obaama…..none whatsoever. He's going to Hell's Compartment 1st, and then to the Lake of Fire 2nd….We are no longer praying for his conversion….We're praying Psalms Ch 91 against him and we the right to.
Raygun was a theif and a fraudster. He made a deal with Iran to sell them missiles if they would promise not to release their American hostages till after the election. I call that treason. I'm just saying. He also flooded our streets with cocaine while his old lady was preaching just say no. Real 1st rate scumbag.
I guess you folks condone treason as long as it a Republican that commits it.
Could not have put it any better than that!!!!!!
God, I miss this man.
