Obama Compares Self to Reagan

A little red meat for our readers. While meeting with Prime Minister David Cameron, President Barack Obama compared the recent uprisings int eh Middle East to the Cold War and his own role to that of former President Ronald Reagan.

They liken their personal efforts to two leaders who came before them: Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher.

"We will stand with those who want to bring light into dark, support those who seek freedom in place of repression, aid those laying the building blocks of democracy," they wrote.

"We will not stand by as their aspirations get crushed in a hail of bombs, bullets and mortar fire. We are reluctant to use force, but when our interests and values come together, we know that we have a responsibility to act."

What?
