Yesterday, Byron York, in the Washington Examiner, correctly recognized the memory of Ronald Reagan on the 100th anniversary of the President's birth. Without question, President Reagan stood for policies like lower taxes, less regulation, and a strong national defense. Having served President Reagan's Energy Secretary, Jim Edwards, as deputy general counsel from 1981 to 1982, I saw firsthand his success in reducing regulations; I witnessed the success of a strong national defense by being an International Republican Institute election observer in Bulgaria, witnessing captive nations achieve freedom and democracy, with victory in the Cold War causing the defeat of communism across Europe and Asia. Ed Meese was quoted for his contrasting the liberating policies of Reagan as opposed to the Big Government agenda of the current President. The resources for conservatives are highlighted in California at the Reagan Library at Simi Valley and the Reagan Ranch Center of the Young America's Foundation at Santa Barbara. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
