Ronald Reagan actually said...

"We have to have it, because between the aging B-52 and the bomber we are developing, the newer bomber, there is too long a time gap in there."

"We know that is not permanent."

"As President, it's my solemn duty to ensure America's national security while vigorously pursuing every path to peace."

"It permits Americans to be the most compassionate of people, at home and to those in need abroad."
