Ron Reagan on Larry King tonight

[AlCzervik]

or as my daughter would call him..."Ugly king Jive".

[MikeG]

1. What? Larry King's gonna be relevant tonight? Nah.

[Bunny]

2. I'm not sure I can get through the night without my dose of

Scott, Laci, Nancy Grace, et al.

>sarcasm<

[AlCzervik]

3. Nancy Grace looks just like this girl

that was on SNL, she did Jan Brady, can't remember her name. Also, Nancy Grace's nostrils always look like fires about to come out of them.

[Bunny]

4. It's her accent that drives me goofy.

No offense meant to our Southern friends, but that accent! Oh lordy!

She does resemble the woman from SNL, and I can't remember her name either.

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

5. Is Ron on after the segment about the Scott Peterson trial?

[MikeG]

6. Do they start with Ron Reagan. No. F'ing Laci Peterson. Grrrr.

[AlCzervik]

7. I'm sorry, i don't know

I saw the promo last night and today, hopefully the peterson case won't suck down too much time. I live in northern california and we are all so sick of this trial, of course it's awful but this constant nationial media atention is fing crazy. This is a local story...period.

[Bunny]

8. Do you think Ron is a little exasperated

at having to sit through the Scott/Laci thing first? Maybe he'll bring it up!

[Armstead]

9. Can someone give a heads up when the Peterson crap is over?

I'd be ever so grateful -- it'll be a heroic sacrifice to sit through the trial post mortemns, which I'm not up to making.

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

10. Ditto. Grooving to some Beatles tunes until I can tear myself away for

the interview. Thanks.

[wellstone dem]

11. He is on and he is great

Don't think it was all about my Dad. We'd been through so much with the prisoner abuse, it made us want to take a shower. And now we are reminded of a president who made us feel good.

[eleny]

12. The words he just chose...

He may have well just hauled off and kicked the shrub in the nuts.

Ron is terrific tonight.

[eleny]

13. "We lied our way into a war"

He won't support Bush and will vote for the viable candidate who can beat W.

[wellstone dem]

14. When you hear someone justifying

a war by their religious beliefs you have to worry alot. That's what Osama Bin Ladin does.......we were lied to.


I will not support this President. I will vote for any other viable candidate who can defeat George w. Bush.

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

16. WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kaiso]

15. JUST SLAMMED BUSH. SAID HE WOULD VOTE FOR KERRY!

Said he will vote for viable candidate, not Nader as he is not viable!

Said his father would have gone after OBL, not Saddam!


WOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

17. I THOUGHT I'D NEVER SAY I LOVE RON REAGAN, BUT I LOVE

RON PRESCOTT REAGAN!!!!!!

[redstateblues]

35. Ron P. Reagan speaks the truth!!

He has the old man's communication skills, but he's on our side- the side of the truth. Inspiring to hear him speak without hedging about our lying Chimp.

[merh]

18. Way to go Ronald Prescott Reagan.

You have got to love the way this guy handled himself. He politely and sincerely answers the questions and graciously SLAMS GW and his band of thugs. :thumbsup:

[TacticalPeek]

19. Cool. Reagan's kid is ABB.

I hope at least one head just exploded at the WH. Or maybe they are FORBIDDEN to watch Ron just like they are forbidden to watch F911?

:evilgrin:

[wellstone dem]

20. stem cell research

hits another one out of the Park.

Ron, can you move to Minnesota and run against Coleman?

[eleny]

21. Did he just refer to the GOP platform as "dunderheaded"?

[susanna]

32. Yes.

Yes, he did. Saw that! :-)

[merh]

24. I Love Ronald Prescot Reagan!

King: Have you ever considered running for office,

Reagan: No, no

King: ... you have the name going for you.

Reagan: Yeah (laugh) the name seems to have worked for some.

[varun]

26. loved his point about in-vitro fertilization

that many fertilized eggs are discarded during in vitro fertilization. So those who oppose stem cell research should also oppose in-vitro fertilization.

[eaprez]

34. They won't oppose THAT for the same reason...

...they don't oppose IUD's (which don't prevent conception only prevent the fertilized egg from implanting in the womb)...the public would view that as outrageous and unreasonable. Therefore, they are hypocrits.

[Fenris]

22. "You've got the name going."

"Yeah, that works for some people."

SLAM!!!!!!!!!

[wellstone dem]

23. oh no

He says he won't run for office.

[TacticalPeek]

25. Duh. He says he's an atheist.

As a counterindicator of him running for office.

Too bad. He's got the gift of gab, and seems to have a good heart. Decent Republicans are so rare these days, if indeed he would even claim the association.

Ha! He tried to go to F911, but all the tickets were sold out. Michael Moore, get your promo team on the horn!

[merh]

27. Another Slam!

(talking about his dad) He would have never gone around the Geneva Convention and dunked people in water to get answers. Uck the thought of that makes me want to shower (or something to that effect!)

HEEEEEHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe

[eleny]

29. along with the body language of ron

rubbing his arms and making that face of disgust. this is one very powerful and pointed interview. he clearly wanted to talk about how bush is so bad for this country. this is the tell-all interview i believe we've been waiting for.

[spanone]

28. Ron is getting some GREAT SHOTS IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is wonderful. Larry hasn't refuted anything Ron has said about the bush* regime.

[RetroLounge]

30. Wow, he is doing great.

Makes me (sorta) sorry for disliking his father so much.

But he is just slamming bush* tonight.

GO RPR!

RL

[AlinPA]

31. This is BIG. He absolutely blasted Bush* and the administration.

This will be in the "news" tommorrow. The right wing will say that since he is an atheist, everyone should ignore what he said. Problem for them: LOTS of people saw this. LOTS of people see it his way. WOW.

[wellstone dem]

33. I'm watching this again.

Well worth it.

[Pachamama]

36. The Republican Party is "a much meaner" party.....

:kick:

You go Ron Reagan! Love you!!!! I was right....I said in other threads during the Reagan Mourning week that within 2 weeks Ron Jr. would come out punching....

Yes!!!!!!

[0007]

37. Bet the freepers are dropping a load on this story!

[dArKeR]

38. Reagan's Son Blasts Bush

Ron Reagan, the younger son of the late President Reagan, criticized the Bush administration's foreign policy, saying he believed the president misled Americans to gain support for the Iraq war.

"We lied our way into the war," he said on CNN's "Larry King Live" on Wednesday, referring to allegations that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction and direct connections to al Qaeda. "It's a terrible mistake, a terrible foreign policy error."

Reagan, 46, a vocal opponent of his father's conservative politics, said he would vote for anyone who could beat the current president.

Reagan also said he was angered over the administration's opposition to human embryonic stem cell research.
