My response to brother's RW e-mail

[zbdent]

I'm not absolutely certain that my brother is a RWer, or just pulling my chain for fun.

He used to send me stuff all the time, until I really let him have a rant of my own. Seems he subscribes to some of these joke servers that tend to be rather rightist (and, I suspect, a large source of a lot of the virii that he gets on his computer).

For quite some time, he hasn't sent me any political stuff, but today he sent me (sans picture, but I bet I could figure out who) the following:

Subject: Fw: From President Reagans Funeral

Best line of the day has to be The View's co-host Joy Behar's remark upon seeing this picture. . ...


"This must be the first time they've slept together in years"
-------------------------
So, I decided to respond. (and, just for fun, I sent it to all on the list)

Yeah, funny how someone can take a moment of prayer and make it political.

You know, a few years ago, Bill Clinton was sharing a warm memory about a friend at the friend's funeral. He smiled, and laughed at the happy memory. The "liberal media" immediately went into attack mode and portrayed it as a heartless moment.

So Bush41 gets up at the podium for Reagan's funeral and tells "a funny story" and the entire place has a chuckle. No attack from the "liberal media", despite the weeks-long Reagan-a-palooza.

Whaddaya think?

2. It's the one with Bill and Hillary bowing their heads in prayer

(the picture never came through to me, but I can bet that was the one).

Of course, the dildohead types painted it as "Look who's so bored at Reagan's funeral that they're falling asleep!".

Same as they did in Bush's SOTU address where the press showed Hillary "rolling her eyes" at everything that Bush said, even though it might have been one time, when she might have been looking up for whatever reason. Funny how they never replay the Clinton SOTU where every Repuke sat on their hands when Clinton said something that they didn't claim they came up with first.
