http://politicalhumor.about.com/cs/quotethis/a/reaganquotes.htm

"My fellow Americans. I'm pleased to announce that I've signed legislation outlawing the Soviet Union. We begin bombing in five minutes." –joking during a mike check before his Saturday radio broadcast

"We are trying to get unemployment to go up, and I think we're going to succeed."
