Shortly after his inauguration, Ronald Reagan announced the embassy hostages had been freed implying he was responsible. Reagan never gave Carter credit for the negotiation leading to the Algiers Accords the day before Reagan's inauguration . That was small of him. Reagan won the election in a landslide and could have been magnanimous thanking Carter for his successful negotiation efforts. But he did not. Today millions of Americans believe "Reagan freed the hostages."
Exactly right, Ron. And what in the world business did he have his people negotiating with Iran BEFORE he was even elected? And yet, NOBODY questioned it on Inauguration Day. I mean, I did but where was our national media? Sad, isn't it?
