I was born in 1980 so everything I know about Reagan pretty much came from reading books. I don't remember too much first hand.

However, w. bush is different for me. I enlisted in the Army in 1997 and graduated college in 2002 and then went on to serve as an Infantry Officer in the Army until 2007. I lived george w. bush's policies when I was in Iraq and I saw exactly what he did to that country and those people. I will never forgive bush or the republicans for their role in that war. I hate to not take responsibility for my own life, but much of what is wrong with my life is/was bush's fault. Had it not been for his war in Iraq I probably wouldn't be the broken person that I am today. bush and what he did is very close and personal to me.
