I don't believe you are in a position to tell anyone what is treason and what isn't.

I mean Reagan later got caught illegally selling weapons to the Iranians and that's widely known.


Wrong. Albert Hakeem sold weapons. I lived next door to him. Your ignorance knows no bounds.

SFP is actually very smart and just enjoys the contrarian role. Powerman is an actual moron that thinks he is smart.

you believe LBJ's bff over Reagan?

The same guy that that threw shade on both Bush's as well?

Did this democrat operative actually accuse Reagan? Or did he accuse his political rival Texas governor John Connally of promoting Reagan's candidacy in the ME?

I still remember the national mourning of Reagan's passing. Nothing like it and I doubt we'll see it's equal ever again.

Back then, even the press frowned upon the usual suspects who protested. Few and far between as they were.

Or ... I lived it. I was stationed at Fort Bragg at the time, my first tour there.

I remember Gen James J Lindsey addressing the entire Division and saying it was bullshite and that the Iranian regime were c**ks*cking liars ... and then he proceeded to tell us that our mission was being changed from jungle ops to desert ops and desert MOUT missions.

And it did. We trained, non stop, jumping into deserts from the Mohave to Egypt. We went from jungle cammies to desert cammies. It was all out desert warfare from that point forward.

So yeah, I know for a fact, that Mullahs are pathological liars.

He is gone. He is a very low IQ moron that wants so badly to be smart. He posts absolute lies and when pressed runs. He won’t post his source. He knows it’s BS. He needs some crayons to eat.

Best thing we can do is call him out. Any thread he posts in ask him to verify his false claim about Reagan. He will be done with that thread. Easy fix to the powerman failed experiment.

Oh no, someone who voted 3x for Reagan is bailing on him over another concerning story.

He claims to be some kind of “project manager”. I’ve worked in the engineering field for 30+ years with a lot of project managers…none of whom EVER had the time during the day to waste on a message board the way he does.

I called him out on that a couple months ago. He responded by stammering a bunch of excuses about how “his client was way behind schedule”, “he’s very efficient at his job”, “when things start popping, he’s gone from here for weeks at a time”.

Well apparently, that client went from woefully behind schedule to caught up overnight because Powerdolt vanished for about 3 weeks after that.

I thank God it happened. 4 more years of Carter would have been catastrophic for this country.

I have no clue what he actually does. I’d love to know. What I do know is that he is dishonest and very very dumb. Once he gets called out he disappears. This thread is a perfect example.


I lived next door to the guy that actually sold the weapons. That’s not a flex. It was actually kind of scary for a while. Powerman didn’t even know the name. He is a complete moron.

Does the 1980 October surprise

Youre such an embarrassment to your parents

1) It wasnt an October surprise, it was in January, well after the election
2) The hostages couldn't be released until the agreement was signed
quote:

The Algiers Accords of January 19, 1981 was a set of obligations and commitments undertaken independently by the United States and Iran to resolve the Iran hostage crisis, brokered by the Algerian government and signed in Algiers on January 19, 1981

3) How in the actual hell are you gonna release the hostages before Jan 20? There was no deal until the 19th

Now run away with like you usually do when you are owned by the actual facts

Whatever it took to get rid of Carter is fine by me. He was as bad as Biden and his ineptitude made Clinton and Obama look better than they really were.

The thread title does not describe the OP's posting. An October surprise is something that potentially swings the election from one candidate to another right before the election.
This is about something that favored Regan after he was elected.
