For those still under the delusion that GW's term is similar to Reagan's time spent as president, I strongly urge you to read this terrific piece in The Boston Globe that points out several reasons why they're starkly different. As I wrote previously, Bush makes Reagan look like a lukewarm moderate. In addition, Reagan was a religious man but did not impose his religious beliefs on the country (well, at least not as explicitly as Bush). The list goes on and on.
