Purple,
I would have thought you would admire trading arms for hostages, instead of bombing them into oblivion or invading the Country to get them out.

Oh is that how that worked. Too bad it was illegal. Selling arms to Iran to pay the Contras to do our dirty work in Nicaraqua. But please paint a rosey picture of it for me.

Both the sale of weapons to Iran and the funding of the Contras violated stated administration policy and legislation passed by the Congress, known as the "Boland Amendment."

The Reagan Administration calculated that by selling arms to Iran, that nation would influence the Hezbollah kidnappers in Lebanon to release their hostages. Iran was in the midst of the Iran-Iraq War and could find few nations willing to supply it with weapons. However, the arms shipments began before the first hostage was taken, and ended a long time after the last hostage was released.

And what does the Gipper do? Claims he didn't know what was going on of course. Now where have I heard that before?

Purple,
It was illegal. That part I cant paint a rosey picture for you.
But it worked! And our boys came home.
And you and I know how much you can get away with right under a President's nose, unless you keep a little blue dress or something.
President Reagan did die of complications from Alzheimer's, I dont think he knew what he was signing by the time he left office.
