Which war was this? Unless are you counting the situation where Reagan cut and ran from Lebanon after terrorists killed 243 Marines? I have a cousin who was in the Marines there, and he still hates Reagan for how he handled that.

Hmm, one interesting thing about Reagan's foreign policy around 1984, is that's around when the United States became the only country found guilty of terrorism, thanks to Reagan's actions in Nicaragua. That war isn't exactly the kind of thing to bring up if you want to pretend that pro-war Republicans are somehow anti-terrorism.
