Ronald Reagan, our 40th president, died today. He defeated the Evil Empire, unleashed more than seven years of sustained economic growth, and restored our nation's pride after Vietnam, Watergate, stagflation, the Iranian hostage crisis, and the expansion of Communism in the 1970s. Reagan was truly a great president.

Not everyone agrees, and I spoke to some of these dissenters at a rally in Washington, DC earlier today. Their response to Reagan's ill-health (which resulted in his death later in the day) was vile. I will have an article on the celebratory mood of some on the Left to the downturn in Reagan's condition soon.

Rest in peace, President Reagan. We are all in your debt.

Mr. Flynn...you are correct. Today, we lost a great American. A man who loved this country more than almost anyone alive today. President Reagan, you will be missed....The Conservative movement has lost our only leader.
