Ronald Reagan actually said...

"Through Western firmness and resolve, we concluded the historic INF treaty that provides for the global elimination of an entire class of U.S. and Soviet intermediate-range nuclear missiles."

"John's service in the succeeding decades has demonstrated the highest dedication and commitment to the well-being of the Nation and his beloved State of Tennessee."

"Peace does depend on Western strength and resolve."

"We can do no less than uphold it and try to see it turn, as the Soviets say, into 'life itself.'"
