Historical Quote of the Day (AP)
"A moment I've been dreading. George (Bush Sr.) brought his ne'er-do-well son around this morning and asked me to find the kid a job. Not the political one who lives in Florida. The one who hangs around here all the time looking shiftless. This so-called kid is already almost 40 and has never had a real job. Maybe I'll call Kinsley over at The New Republic and see if they'll hire him as a contributing editor or something. That looks like easy work."
-- Ronald Reagan in his recently published diaries, written May 17, 1986

I hope it gets widespread attention. Does anyone know how the freep-turds are taking it?

George finally found his calling, however. World desecrater par excellence.

9. False: These Edited Diaries are too busy being coma-inducing most of the time.. |

Every other day its talking about the Ranch or Nancy. The full diaries will hopefully be released someday and we can read the whole thing. I want to read what the leader of the free world thought day to day. I hate the man's policies and feel his legacy is unjust, but I loved reading his little quips. He bashed the movie "Officer and a Gentleman" for its nudity (it was a fantastic flick!). for a history buff like me, the diaries are interesting.

I really wonder if the Frat Boy made enough of an impression on Reagan to comment. Reagan, for all his faults as a leader, wasn't particularly mean spirited on a personal level. Saying something unkind like this was not in his nature. If we really do find such a remark in the real Reagan diaries about the Frat Boy or any one else, that person must have been remarkably mediocre, incompetent or just unimpressive.
