二十多年來,共和黨和保守派把雷根捧為「救世主」,連民主黨的歐巴馬亦對雷根稱頌有加。然而,雷根(二○○四年以九十三歲高齡辭世)如活到今天,他將不認識今天的共和黨和保守派,亦會對華府的政治文化大搖其頭。 g: I& ~& S# v3 h1 n3 c
* G; o0 O' v" m2 p; C: p# F# D現在的共和黨和保守派跟雷根時代已大不相同、大異其趣。比較一下雷根和羅姆尼以及八○年代(雷根總統任期為一九八一至一九八九)和目前的共和黨,雷根很可能會被今天的共和黨「開除黨籍」,捧雷根的共和黨人只渲染他保守持重的一面,而刻意忽視他開明大度、與時俱進的另一面。今天的共和黨和極右的茶黨所最痛恨的社會安全制度(即養老金制度)及老人醫療保險(Medicare),雷根不僅妥予保護,甚至把聯邦經費源源送到州市地方政府,使他們不致捉襟見肘;他向地方轉錢的速度比歐巴馬還大方、還要快。共和黨副總統候選人保羅.萊恩力主廢掉老人醫療保險,代之以有限制的醫療券,引發所有老人的極度不滿。過去的小布希和今天的茶黨,也想把小羅斯福總統即開始實行的社會制度交給私人公司處理,被人痛罵。 8 n6 F# n, @. s+ l% g( V4 f公仔箱論壇 % J6 W% u& t4 _$ VTVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。羅姆尼和萊恩以及大批共和黨人皆反移民,都主張嚴厲管制移民。雷根在一九八六年推動的新移民法,特赦了將近三百萬非法移民,使他們獲合法居留權。對今天的共和黨和茶黨而言,那是大逆不道的做法!共和黨最喜歡幫有錢人減稅,尤其是大富豪(如擁有二億美元身家的羅姆尼),雷根亦幫富人減過稅,但他在任時曾加稅十一次!共和黨對加稅恨之入骨,但雷根為了彌補開支(包括軍費和社會福利),甘冒共和黨之大不韙,竟十一度加稅。這種作法,在今天惡鬥到不成樣子的華府政治生態看來,簡直是匪夷所思! : }2 a! [+ E9 @! Z: gtvb now,tvbnow,bttvb 6 B( N! Z. m$ d) P/ i5.39.217.76雷根最為人所稱道的政績之一是他幾近完美地處理美蘇關係,使美蘇真正進入「低盪」(緩和)時期。但一向堅決反共的雷根,也是在受到一九八六年伊朗─尼加拉瓜軍售大醜聞的教訓後,才痛苦地了解到不能被那一批新保守派牽著鼻子走,也才有雷根和克里姆林宮頭子戈巴契夫的握手言歡,並為日後蘇聯共黨帝國的崩潰鋪路。主張在海外耀武揚威、宣揚美國獨特主義(exceqtionalism)的新保守派,被雷根清算後,又遭老布希凍結,但在無知而頑固的布希和錢尼時代又借屍還魂,蓄意發動侵略伊拉克戰爭,使美國國力和名聲大大受損。如今,羅姆尼和萊恩又想重拾布希和錢尼留下來的灰燼,其後果只會使美國再掉進更慘烈的深淵。% I' R, S' P& b g. i& a, @

雷根時代結束後,共和黨和保守派開始極右化,他們不太滿意老布希的國內外政策,尤其是老布希打破不加稅的承諾以及天安門事件後急於向中共示好。柯林頓上台後,極右化的共和黨兩度迫使聯邦政府關門,停止運作,但柯林頓反撲成功。議長金瑞契即主導眾院對柯林頓緋聞案進行彈劾,以資報復。 $ I. G! q, x- a- g公仔箱論壇5.39.217.76; h6 {+ q7 Y1 u( g/ g+ N
歐巴馬上台後,極右化速度加快,在茶黨的推波助瀾下,華府政壇已淪為對抗性的角力場。只要是歐巴馬建議的,共和黨就反對;因此,七千多億美元的經濟紓困計畫,沒有一個共和黨人投贊成票;歐巴馬的劃時代全民健保方案,共和黨人全體反對。前勞工部長趙小蘭的反動丈夫、參院共和黨領袖米奇.馬康納爾最愛掛在嘴邊的一句話是:「讓歐巴馬變成一任總統!」 ) Y9 I, R# o/ l! \tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb公仔箱論壇 ^- k l9 j( x' a; p
歐巴馬在第三次辯論中批評羅姆尼是在推動「八○年代的外交政策、五○年代的社會政策、二○年代的經濟政策」。美國選民在六日就要決定繼續向前走還是堅持極右化,退回到過去的年代! 6 e6 o- D3 Q. A9 y, `2 r : |! o" ` C$ o# \+ gTVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。
