Purveyor of greed, Reagan: his body should have been left in the street for the dogs.
Edited on Wed Jul-08-09 11:24 AM by Democrats_win
As the Reich Wing throws out terms like "pedophile," they think nothing of honoring a far worse person: Reagan. Remember when he fired the air traffic controllers? He left the fathers of thousands of children without jobs. We know his reasoning: you must eliminate good jobs if you want to give rich people tax breaks.

His philosophy of corporate greed above human need is a legacy that will continue to harm generations of Americans. The sickness of his philosophy and his implementation of that philosophy puts his life with other men like Lenin and Pol Pot. The extreme double standard given to the Reagan-style immorality while punishing every other non-economic sin is a way of life in our nation.

Reagan, the peddler of infinite greed WAS honored. Still, these honors are more for the survivors than for the person who has died. So people who immorally made billions off of Reagan, were given a pass as they honored that greedy MF'er, while poor people, who want to honor Jackson, are given the finger.


It's just another sign that, at every level, justice in America is a joke. It's the injustice, STUPID!

1. The media Reagasm when he died was sickening.
So is the revisionism going on canonize Ronnie, patron saint of the heartless, the greedy, the rich, the stupid.

Reagan is the reason I became a staunch liberal at age 14. His election instantly clarified my own politics for me.
