<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dymaxion22, post: 11609, member: 964&quot;]Whatever your political leanings, I think that it is right to give credit to Reagan for his service and to mourn his passing.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, I&#039;ve got to admit I&#039;m pretty tired of this prolonged conservative effort at revisionist history.&nbsp; This continuing effort to deify a modern-era President (Reagan on Mt. Rushmore?&nbsp; Surely you jest!) seems incredibly disingenuous and politically motivated.&nbsp; The reverence afforded to those that occupy the hallowed places on our currency and major national monuments should not be cheapened in an effort to fabricate a historical legacy that the Republican party can use in election campaigns in coming years.&nbsp; Only history can judge whether a leader deserves such reverence, and we do not yet have sufficient historical perspective to properly evaluate Reagan.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was born and raised in DC, and the airport is still &quot;Washington National&quot; to me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dymaxion[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
