[mdmc]

17. I can reply to all of them my friend

'Here's my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose.'

- Ronald Reagan
We won the cold war by funding the terrorists that we now fight. We would have been safer keeping the war cold.

'The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'

- Ronald Reagan
Not spoken by a Katrina victim.

'The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so.'

- Ronald Reagan
All I know is from a movie script.

'Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong.'

- Ronald Reagan
All wars came from the strong inflicting their will on the weak.

'I have wondered at times about what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress.'

- Ronald Reagan
Uh...

'The taxpayer: That's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination.'

- Ronald Reagan
God bless the taxpayers

'Government is like a baby: An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.'

- Ronald Reagan
I disagree.

'The nearest thing to eternal life we will ever see on this earth is a government program.'

- Ronald Reagan
Govt. is only as strong as its tax base.

'It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first.'
- Ronald Reagan
true.

'Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.'

- Ronald Reagan
What?

'Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed, there are many rewards; if you disgrace yourself, you can always write a book.'

- Ronald Reagan
true.

'No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is as formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women.'

19. These are excellent. I appreciate you taking the time.

I'll include them.:toast:

[glowing]

31. here you go

'Here's my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose.'

- Ronald Reagan

Fake "wars" are set up so that govt's can fleece their own people into paying huge amounts of tax money into the treasury for "secreted" acts.... all in the name of freedom and protection. In the end it creates more enemies, wastes more money, and isn't a battle/ war.


'The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'

- Ronald Reagan

The most terrifying words in the world are Bush and Cheney...

'The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so.'

- Ronald Reagan

The problem with liberals are that they are right; and it scares the bejeezums out of neo-cons who want to continue enslaving the human race for their own personal gains. So, they marginalize liberals... and people guided by the M$M and the need of money to embrace greed and corruption, rather than embrace humanity. Liberals are aware that neo-cons have created the rat-trap; they're just looking for a way out of the cage.


'Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong.'

- Ronald Reagan

Now, this is just stupid police-state garbage... And if you are alive for 4 wars, then you are clearly too old.


'I have wondered at times about what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress.'

- Ronald Reagan


'The taxpayer: That's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination.'

- Ronald Reagan

That's what they want us to think... When we start understanding history and our Constitution, we may just realize that its the govt that is supposed to work for us.

'Government is like a baby: An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.'

- Ronald Reagan

AND he was in charge of giving most of it to his neo-con friends.


'The nearest thing to eternal life we will ever see on this earth is a government program.'

- Ronald Reagan

So, what's wrong with govt... Isn't it supposed to be for the people, by the people.

'It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first.'

- Ronald Reagan

He would know.

'Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.'

- Ronald Reagan

Yes, we can see now how our tax money is going to bail out the richey riches of the world; while we foot the bill. That is how he manuevered the system to screw the rest of us.


'Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed, there are many rewards; if you disgrace yourself, you can always write a book.'

- Ronald Reagan

I can't disagree with this statement.. People who are supposed to work for the good of all People generally forget that when they become empowered in the office.

'No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is as formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women.'

- Ronald Reagan

You'd think more Repugs would agree and stop thinking Patriotism and Democracy is won at the end of a gun.


'If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.'

- Ronald Reagan

Correct, we are One Nation.. and they use God to divide it well, along with racism and sexism, and classism.

[lonestarnot]

32. Intransit must have booked so I will thank you for him/her.

[L. Coyote]

2. Remember Ben Linder?

That should cover it! One murder is all you should need. But, just in case:

Remember La Penca?
Remember Iran-Contra-Cocaine?


Or, how about:

Remember the Space Shuttle Explosion?

[tanyev]

3. Is she aware that Reagan didn't make a move without Nancy consulting an astrologer?

In his memoir, For the Record, former White House Chief of Staff Donald T. Regan wastes no time before dropping his biggest bombshell. "Because actions that would otherwise bewilder the reader cannot be understood in its absence," writes Regan in a foreword, "I have revealed in this book what was probably the most closely guarded domestic secret of the Reagan White House."

The secret: First Lady Nancy Reagan's reliance on a San Francisco astrologer to determine the timing of the President's every public move. This was more than a charming eccentricity shared with the 50 million or so other Americans who, casually or in dead earnest, look to the alignment of the stars for guidance. As White House chief of staff for two years, before he was forced to resign in February 1987, Regan was in a position to see how the First Lady's faith in the astrologer's pronouncements wreaked havoc with her husband's schedule. At times, he writes, the most powerful man on earth was a virtual prisoner in the White House.

7. Ha Thanks, I had forgotten that. Didn't he have an affair w/Nancy?

When he was married to someone else?

[annabanana]

29. He cheated on Jane Wyman with Nancy. . . . n/t

[stellanoir]

4. Enlighten her to the Newsflash:

HE'S DEAD.

[shain from kane]

15. HE'S DEAD --- and 3 days have passed. He didn't come back. He ain't no saint.

[Ghost in the Machine]

6. Just tell her Boy Ronnie was mentally incompetent and lusted after his mother in his heart...

and that's why he called Nancy "mommy" all the time. Then remind her that Nancy consulted a psychic every day before setting Ronnie's schedule and/or itinerary.

Then tell her that her Jesus was hybrid crossbreed between our alien creator species and the humans that they created in a lab. It tells her so in her bible, where it says "the Angels took Mary into a tent and administered unto her", which can also be read as "the Aliens took Mary into a tent and artificially inseminated her"...

Maybe she'll leave you alone after that...

[Road Scholar]

9. LOL She definatly will .Thanks

[shain from kane]

16. He also saw UFOs at least 2 times. Poor Dennis Kucinich saw a UFO once, and was mocked.

[0007]

8. Just say 'Fuck Reagan and bring up Nancy R. & Frank Sinatra in the same breath

Frank Sinatra has a cold.

That should shut the old girl up for a while.

[Road Scholar]

10. These are good Ya'all, thanks a bunch!

I'm gonna break that shit up right now. Thanks again.

[DCKit]

11. Astrologers in the WH?

"Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live" let alone advise a senile president.

Besides, there's something seriously wrong with any (straight) guy who would either divorce or be divorced by Jane Wyman.

12. margaret thatcher on ronnie

"poor dear, there's nothing between his ears."

[Road Scholar]

21. LOL Good one!

[Rosemary2205]

13. God loved Reagan so much that he made Ronnie forget the hell he created

I'm not being sarcastic at all. I think it's nice a dupe like Ronnie could spend his final days oblivious to the massive pain he caused to so many people. AND, not all, but a lot of people he hurt were able to look at the pathetic shell left after disease and fell so bad for his human suffering that they were able to let go of the anger.

Maybe not a zinger but it makes the point.

[mdmc]

18. Very true

[Road Scholar]

22. AMEN!!!!! nt

[Shae]

24. It's like the joke ...

I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather, and not yelling and screaming like his passengers.

[mdmc]

14. Ray-gun was our best mentally ill president

:shrug:

[Road Scholar]

23. sorry,dupe

[Road Scholar]

26. LOL

[El Pinko]

20. Reagan conceived his first child with Nancy Davis while he was still married to Jane Wyman...

...IE he was an adulterous scumbag.

Other than that, I'd need more specific examples.

"We begin bombing Russia in 5 minutes"?

or

"There you go again"?



The only quote of Reagan's I ever really liked was "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall".

[MissWaverly]

25. Reagan was not a compassionate Christian

he released the mentally out on to the streets from the institutions where they were
cared for; they had no safety net, nothing. He was the first real neocon who waged
war on the weakest to appear strong. He also deregulated the S&L's which cost the
US taxpayer a huge bundle when that failed.

[Jade Fox]

27. Remind her that...

complex and real problems are rarely solved by one-liners.

[Cheap_Trick]

28. here's a Reagan one-liner your SIL forgot

OOPS. TIME TO CHANGE MY DEPENDS.
-Ronald Reagan

30. "Well ... uh ... there you go again .... uh "
