Presidential memoirs & kissy-love books should be illegal until their papers are PUBLIC.

I am pissed beyond words over the latest lovefest for St. Ronnie of Reagan..

They should not have buildings /airports /public restrooms /whatever named after them either.

Reagan left office on January 20 1989..almost TWENTY years ago, and his papers are still locked up..along with George, the Lesser's dear old daddy's papers.

A president's papers should be public the day after he leaves office. if he/she is bold and brave enough to become president, they should be able to withstand the criticism.

Their papers are more necessary than ever in the world we have to live with now..


And stop naming shit after them.. They asked for a job, they were hired (well, some were), they were paid..Say goodbye to them,print their papers and tell them " just GTF outta the way, and go fishing or something.."

1. One of the first things B43 did in office was to extend

the length of time that presidential papers are held secret...retroactively applying to B41. Wonder why.

2. We need to STOP putting these people on pedestals -- and we need to

Stop THEM from Deifying previous Office-holders. I'm sick to the teeth with all this sanctimonious BULLSHIT whenever they mention Ronnie (I need my diaper changed Mommy) Reagan. And we need to call BULLSHIT every time this crap comes up. :rant:
