Over on Slate Tim Noah says he is troubled:
But it is troubling that the public, or at least a highly influential segment of it, has apparently ruled any criticism of President Reagan out of bounds. When did the Gipper become St. Ronald?It was not so much that the CBS program criticized President Reagan, it was that they were lying about him that bothered Reagan supporters. It irritates liberals so much that Reagan is held in high regard for what he accomplished while in office they have to try to drag him and his wife down to the level, say, Bill and Hillary Clinton, who were so tacky that they left office being accused of stealing White House furnishings.
