Reagan, as President of the SAG was testifying before House Committees about Communism in 1947, 33 years before he was elected President.
He was a staunch anti-Communist warrior way before he ran for President in 1980.
They were attacking Romney for saying that he watched his Dad march with Martin Luther King. Factcheck: neither him nor his Dad were at the march.

Romney’s CLINTONIAN response to evidence that neither him nor his Dad marched with MLK:
Romney said his father had told him he had marched with King and that he had been using the word “saw” in a “figurative sense.”

“If you look at the literature, if you look at the dictionary, the term ‘saw’ includes being aware of in the sense I’ve described,” Romney told reporters in Iowa. “It’s a figure of speech and very familiar, and it’s very common. And I saw my dad march with Martin Luther King. I did not see it with my own eyes, but I saw him in the sense of being aware of his participation in that great effort.”

[...] [Credit goes to eyeon08.com in a post titled Romney: Check with Lawyers and Notes ] [Romney:] You could look at what I said at that time. I was encouraged at that time that there was a creation of a coalition government and believed that was a positive step and I continue to believe that that was a positive step. Let me make it very clear. Not everything that happened over the period of time following Saddam Hussein’s collapse was bad. [...]

Were you already drunk for New Year’s when you posted this? Again, why do you feel a need to attack Reagan and Bush (who was President on 9/11) who came to office with little foreign policy “experience”? When you’re not attacking the Romney family for supporting civil rights in the MLK era you’re ripping Republican Presidents. For shame. P.S. Why don’t you show some class and post a correction on your nutsy-McCain hit job-WW story before the NH Primary? If you work in Republican politics, your boss is an idiot.
