I would not agree that Regan kowtowed to the religious right...... But then I don't think he had to... TOss a bone their way now & then. He swayed them just like he swayed the rest.........
Carter, bush1 & even Clinton played off them..........
bush2 took it to the next level.......... "The chosen one", coming out of texas, the home of the crackpot christian zionist to save us........ Cutting taxes & bombing ppl for Christ......
I think most ppl here re far more conservative then they would like to lead on, or perhaps even admit to themselves........
Ppl really need to watch what they say...... After a while they might even start to believe it...............
