I first got interested when the Reagan administration started with their "just say no" shit. We all knew Ronnie wasn't well and his wife was calling the shots. No pun intended, Hinckley was a dirtbag that doesn't deserve to be walking around today, but yeah I think we were in our early twenties when we all could see it was going south.
I still get a queasy feeling when the fools now call themselves Reagan Republicans..
