I remember some pundit saying that the Republicans deify their dead while
the democrats eat theirs.

My own take on things. First off I was not in this country when he was
president, so my take is entirely from an outsider's point of view. I simply
do not thing he was that good of a president. He nearly started a nuclear
war, violated the law and the constitution more than once and got away with
it (think of the October Surprise and Iran-Contra), was responsible for the
delay in our response to HIV/AIDS and with his attitude towards pollution
and acid rain was probably responsible for the death of millions of acres of
forest. One of my favourite lakes in Ontario is now dead because of Acid
Rain. That can be directly attributed to his policies.
