I remember two things. I remember the howling for a mere executive order to undo DADT, along with a little extra howling when the administration stopped the courts from blocking DADT immediately (which would have interfered with the orderly shutdown that is underway); and I remember Ronald Reagan undoing everything that Jimmy Carter had done in energy improvement, because Jimmy Carter told us we sucked and Ted Kennedy told us Jimmy Carter sucked and so on.
Indeed, to this day we are told how much Jimmy Carter sucked, when what he did wrong was not get re-elected. How much better would this country be today if Jimmy Carter had been re-elected!
