I never used to hate Ronald Reagan.
   Advertisements [?]

     Growing up, he seemed to me like a kindly and likable old
man, almost grandfatherly. I never realized what he truly was.
What he truly represented.
     I'm not sure how much of it was really HIM, and how much
was his corrupt neocon cronies...but his administration is
responsible for giving us George W. Bush and his raping of
America.
     As we see the full brunt of the disgusting economic
policies of Bush, taken straight from Reagan's sleazy
playbook, I have just this to say:
     As much as I can find it within myself to hate someone,
I feel that for Ronald Reagan. His outlook, his views, his
way of running this country...it's a disease that still
infects us all. The fact that so many on the right still
gleefully carry his water like he's some kind of ****ing
saint makes me ill. What do they admire so much? His cowboy
diplomacy? His cock waving? His disgusting disregard for the
environment and for the poor?
     This country was doomed the moment Ronald 'rat****er'
Reagan took the oath of office. The poison will only be
expunged when Dems take back the White House and Congress and
show some ****ing progressive spine for once. The Reagan
Revolution is finally in its death throes. George W. Bush was
only a pathetic shadow of the vile evil that Reagon embodied.
The evangelicals are no longer the force they once were for
the right. Now is our time, our opportunity, to destroy the
loathsome legacy of Ronald Reagan and but to rest the notion
that America admires that kind of greed-based outlook. Time
to drive a stake into the heart of St. Rollie once and for
all.
     In closing: **** Reagan and anyone who dares try to
justify his awful presidency.


Feel the love from the true fascists.

14. Without Unca Ronnie, there would be no Dubya.
   Can you imagine where we'd be if Carter had won in 1980? It's like we've had a mini-Dark Ages.

We would probably be a Soviet satellite and you DUmbasses would be really imprisoned for your ranting about the good life you are entitled to.

On with the show.

29. Me too! Hated him in 1976
   when he tried to steal the Republican nomination from Ford. My Mom and Grandma hated him too. Noni called him "old turkey neck." We all knew he was dangerous.

52. me too...always destested him
   and i never understood why anyone voted for him.
You never will either...it is called love of our country and the freedom of opportunity it provides.
You want a guarantee of prosperity which no one or system can do so you have condemned yourself to misery.
Hope you find it satisfying. :-)

and still do, for all the reasons you listed. Welcome to the club. 

edited because I hate him so much I apparently can't even spell his name. lol

Lurking DUmmies......President Reagan is solidly listed in every way as one of the top 10 Presidents this nation has ever had.
What are you going to do when the same happens with President Bush in a few years.

I laugh at your hopeless hatred and lunacy. :lmao:

The DUchebags on that thread just lost the very thin grip they had on reality.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

If not for Pres. Reagan, this could be us...

In the case of Russia, evidence the high abortion rate; roughly 70 percent higher than in the U.S.

Abortion has become the birth control of choice; a choice made because of circumstances. Birth control is available in Russia, but it is expensive, whereas abortions are free. The overall health of Russia is poor. With as much as 20 percent of young women suffering from anemia, many choose abortion because they fear that they and/or their baby will not survive a full term pregnancy.

Economics are a reality when it comes to pregnancy. The Russian economy has improved during 2000, but it has a ways to go before prospective parents will feel they can afford children. Many who don't believe in abortion for religious reasons or think they can figure out a way to care for a child will deliver, only to place their baby up for adoption. Most of these infants and children are adopted by non-Russian families, primarily in the United States. A population crisis is in the making with the number of Russian citizens dropping by 8 million from 1991 to 1999.

Observers and adoptive parents have accused Russian orphanages of neglect and abuse. The reality is, these orphanages are underfunded, understaffed and over populated with children. Roughly 230,000 children are residents of the state orphanage system with over 650,000 in some form of state care. Itar-Tass has reported that some 90 percent of children in orphanages are not true orphans as they do have living parents. Due to poor conditions, inadequate nutrition and insufficient emotional care, many of these children are underdeveloped mentally and physically.

Imagine how much the DUmmies could find to whine about if we were all Russians now.   :banghead:

It will soon be 20 years since he left office and yet their pitiful,miserable lives have stopped.

They think themselves to be the smartest,most talented... :blah: :blah: of all mankind when in reality they are enslaved by a hatred of events that can never be changed.

Jeese! Just today I was a little perturbed at the guy that didn't use his turn signal. I got over it in about 13.2277455636261627384845 seconds though.
But you, your angst, anger, and the hate that consumes you...why...it kind of makes me smile.

I get infinite wood over KNOWING the DUmmy's lives are infinitely lousy and all I have to do is sit back and enjoy.
Gosh I love my life.

The DUmmies refuse to believe that they are a tiny minority. They love Jimmy Carter and his ilk. They hate Ronald Reagan.

Let's climb into the VRWC Time Machine and take a look at a photo that gives a true representation of the DUmmies' position in American politics. This shows the result of election between Reagan and Carter's left-hand man Mondale.



The DemonRatics apparently couldn't even get enough votes from dead folks to make the election close. I think it was Dennis Miller who said something along the lines of: You know Mondale has to feel bad as he only got 13 more electoral votes than I got, and I didn't even run.

If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

And ya know what?  Mondale was ahead of Ronnie by 18 points in one poll taken right after the Democratic Convention.
