Yeah he most definately is, he actually was on some VH1 special i watched about aids and he criticized the reagan administration about letting a large group of people die. He got all choked up and grimiced about how his gay friends and partners died from aids. I agree, even though Reagan did alot of great thinks like ending communism and fighting domestic abuse he certainly messed up with the whole aids thing and now the whole world is paying for it not only the gays.

Reagan or someone else always messes up with the AIDS problem or anything to do with homosexualsright? Where's the personal responsibility for one's own behavior and choices? Do we absolve the gays who "bathed" at the bath houses and literally had hundreds of different partners? Do we turn our eyes to the irresponsibility of not using condoms? Even gay leaders were condemned by gays for telling the gay community to be more monogamous and use protection (reported by the CDC). But, somehow and for some reason, the blame goes to Reagan or some other person because he or she didn't hold the hands of the irresponsible and help them across the street of life. Even if Reagan had been outspoken regarding AIDS, he would have been accused of meddling in the personal lives of those who choose an alternative lifestyleit's a no win situation when an individual or community refuse to accept responsibility for their actions and choices.

Reagan did not propose gay monogamy he only proposed abstinance because of his own moral views driven by religion. Education that teaches that abstinace is the way to go is foolish and counter productive.
