What If Reagan Dies On The D-Day Anniversary?
The anniversary of the Allied Invasion will forever be marred and usurped by the Reich as a "Ronald Reagan Memorial" day.

"Heaven forbid!", said the atheist.

1. That would be a PERFECT tribute since he parachuted in there that day
He did, didn't he?

:P

2. Only in his dreams.
Reagan can die whenever. No one important will care. The Ex-pres. will have to attend but its just protocol.

3. Didn't Raygun single-handly end the war?
Didn't he drive the truck that ended the war on Latrines?

Or is Latrines just the remainder due to the dividing line created when he won the war on Drugs? I just can't figure out all of this History stuff.:-)

6. CNN claims he still has "weeks or months"
So they can kick the plug out of the wall a few days before the Repug Convention, then treat us all to a week-long Reagan-themed circle-jerk in New York. Ugh.

7. I remember back in October 2000
When the media were reporting that the end was nigh. I remember the time frame because my sister was visiting me, and she looked at me and asked how long I thought he had ("two weeks?") He could hang on for years and years.

To add my two cents, I have sympathy and pity for him and his family, but he was a clueless suit who let a lot of crap happen. I will not bash him when he finally shuffles off this mortal coil, but I will not mourn him, either.

My husband said, "At least he wasn't evil like this guy in there now is." I don't think he was evil, either. It's much worse to be stupid AND evil than just stupid.
