1. Say what you want...

Rushmore can't handle another face structurally.

Unless Reagan wants to add one more thing to the things he's destroyed just by showing his face.

[misanthrope]

2. I'd like to see...

...Rushmore returned to a natural state. The only reason that it's there, anyway, is as a giant urine pool on Native sacred territory.

Free the Paha Sapa!

[GreenArrow]

8. I could not agree more...

it's a blight.

[BurtWorm]

3. You mean Reagan's dead body?

That might be entertaining... :think:

[Bonhomme Richard]

4. I'd rather see his face on.....................

the Ass side of Mt Rushmore.

7. Reagan is nowhere near Mount Rushmore caliber.

[freetobegay]

11. Thats why I voted no!

:)

20. Have you forgotten that, even for the ones there now, WE VIOLATED

American Indian's sacred territory???
What is done is done, but let's not make it more obscene.

6. They need an option for

ARE YOU EFFING KIDDING ME? THE MAN WAS AN EMBARASSMENT AND A MONSTER!

[evil_orange_cat]

9. I'd seriously entertain the idea of blowing up Rushmore myself if [...]

<...> that happened. That would definitely prove true the notion that this is a cult of personality that has taken over the American public.

I could not live with myself morally if I allowed Reagans image to pollute the beautiful monument on Rushmore.

[Laf.La.Dem.]

10. Done

Done - "NO" up to 58%

[Gin]

12. only if I could be there too...President Gin!!!!!!! I like it!

gin

[gratuitous]

13. That would be horrid!

Bury the poor man's body, for the love of Christ! I didn't much like him or his politics, but I see no purpose in hanging his body from a national monument like that.

Might make the birds sick.

22. lol

:thumbsup:

14. I answered and sent a message as follows (basically HELL NO!):

I am so exhausted by the continuous, unending misrepresentation of Reagan's record... How sad that the media have been over-eager participants in the adoration of a false idol.
For today's question: not only no but HELL NO. That site was sacred to American Indians and we already defaced it by putting the images of white presidents there. But REAGAN???? It would be an insult not only to the American Indians but to all humanity.

16. Just remember who owns the media - it's not us lefties!

[merh]

15. A phrase to remember!

My mother always told me "Names are fools like their faces, always seen in public places." I never really appreciated that saying until Reagan became president. Of course, now it is as clear as a bell.

[BringEmOn]

17. I would like to see Reagan mount Rush more.

[LittleApple81]

18. EEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWW...just like another cist on his butt.n/t

[playahata1]

19. Voted "No."

Still holding at 42% Yes and 58% No.

Other than that, nothing but a whorefest over there.

[arwalden]

21. How? On A Shelf? Dangled By A Rope? Just Bury Him And Get It Over With!

[cmf]

23. Sure!

Just so I can see it crumble off because the rock is so unstable. That would be poetic justice!

[KansDem]

24. Sure...

But only if I can see Cary Grant run all over his face ala "North by Northwest."

(Incidentally, if I remember correctly, Cary Grant opened the 1980 Republican Convention)

[Ms. Clio]

25. Not just no, but HELL NO!!!

Although I think Mt. Rushmore is kind of bizarre, anyway, and I wonder what future archaeologists will make of it.

[LittleApple81]

26. Kind of bizarre? We raped a sacred site for the American Indians.

I would call that an abuse, more than just bizarre. If we "desecrated" "Christian Monuments", what would all the RW say?

[Ms. Clio]

28. I did not know that--yes, that is even more obscene n/t

[AntiCoup2K4]

27. Would you like to see Mt Rushmore bombed into oblivion?

Because it will happen if Reagan or either Bush ever disgraces that mountain. :nuke:

[Pathwalker]

29. This will NOT happen - the mountain couldn't handle it.

This has already been discussed, and the mountain itself cannot handle any more explosions - it would crumble to dust. IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!!

[11 Bravo]

30. Only if the Presidents' entire bodies are depicted.

Then Reagan could be a pimple on Thomas Jefferson's ass.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

31. Only if they put Bill Clinton up there when his time comes

Because right is right. No Clinton, no Gipper. Sign the contract now or fuck off Freepers.

[Misunderestimator]

32. Nah... but can we put Bush on Rushmore?

[Yupster]

33. No, better get him in the ground pretty soon

You only have so long regardless of how good the morticians are.
