1. that second photo up there...
...with that logo behind his head. Because his big head blocks out part of the word "belief," if you remove the "F," it reads, "united by our core lies." Ain't that the truth.

2. Bunch of pathetic shills comparing themselves to a Alzenheimer patient that
MSM made into some hero - how pathetic is that? (Still, I have the minor enjoyment that by doing so, they try to distance themseves from *). * - who when sucked up to, was also named "Reagan's son"

6. Wow, they drag Ronnie's corpse around every chance they get.
Why doesn't he have a photo of Wee George up there? Does he hate Murka? :shrug:

15. Whaa?
Reagan was no Elvis.

Reagan was a compliant prop. A useful, avuncular idiot for the extreme right.

19. They do have some things in common.
For one thing, age. For another, ungodly wrinkles. For another, laziness - it's much more fun delegating authority so you as the Giant CEO Sloth can go spend all day at the country club or the ranch. Remember, up til junior stole his way in, reagan was the most vacationed president ever. Seems to me when someone actually wants to be president, and puts all that campaign time and money into becoming president, and seems to be dying to get into the Oval Office, that individual shouldn't be in such a damned hurry to get out of Washington and go on vacation. You're president. STAY PUT AND ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES AND GET THE FUCK TO WORK, lazy putz! You weren't hired to take long vacations.
