Ronald Reagan actually said...

"The United States is ready; I hope the Soviets are as well."

"This legislation would be a budget-buster signaling a willingness to raise taxes and take the lid off spending."

"If the big spenders want a fight on the budget, they'd better strap on their helmets and shoulder pads."

"So, take it from an old sportscaster: Don't leave your seats; the game ain't over!"
