It's their way of telling the voters that they won't be anything like that complete failure, George W Bush, only they're too chickenshit to say THAT, so they're distancing themselves from Bush by slobbering over that overrated bum, Reagan.

BTW, Ronald Reagan wouldn't have been shit without Gorbachev paving the way for him to take the credit.

1. Obama thinks he was wonderful.
What's up with that?

2. Yeah, that's pretty much correct.
"slobbering over that overrated bum, Reagan".... that's a great line.

3. That's why it is so important for us to evoke the greatness of Ronald Reagan
at every possible opportunity.

Let's not make this an election focussed on the failures of the current administration. Instead, let's hark back to "Morning in America," the feel-good era of Ronald Wilson Reagan. Rhetoric does count. Reagan brought us together and we all stood proud! Those were the days!

:puke:

4. What made Reagan the Great Communicator
was his ability to convince the great American sheep that their interests and the interests of huge corporations are one and the same. That's been put to the test and reality just happens to look different.
