“…know that we are a force for good in this world, and that is nothing to apologize for…
Whatever. Stupid hoochie.
Gravitas. Civility.

Gonna give this a listen. I might pretend that she’s talking about Vince Lombardi though.
Those are very good quotes. And they are true. And the left (and sadly a few in the GOP too) will call her simple and stupid for believing it.
If Nancy really cares about her late husband’s legacy she might speak out about Junior’s lack of class, including being a little bit more warmer to the step child Michael Reagan.
Jr’s. drivel is as water off a duck’s back, so not even worthy our attention. Wait, where have I heard that before?
Buy broccoli.
The Boys of Pointe du Hoc.
God bless all who fight, and keep all who have fallen.
Is our resident yellow cartoon troll actually Ron Reagan Jr.?
Just remember, SNL had to get Tina Fey in order to make a mock of Sarah Palin. Junior went on the show and did it all by himself.
That Hayward piece was a good read, as is his Age of Reagan.
Reagan is so great him and Prince and cabbage patch kids and z cavariccis! … for freedom!
Except not Egypt cause it’s too complicatered. But the idea is awesome.
The reason that the left fears Palin so much is because she is so Reagan-esque. Which is why they made sure Ron Jr. trotted out to bash her speech right away; for which he not only looked small, but also clueless as to what his father actually stood for.
Which is no surprise, since as I noted here ( http://tiny.cc/yn9c3 ) the left really has no idea what is truly Reagan-esque. They think it is just an affectation; an act they can put on. And Obama’s buying into this, and practicing his speechifying extra-hard while the MBM siezes every opportunity to tell us just how Reagan-esque he’s being; many of the same people, by the way, who reacted with hate, venom, and spittle flecking rage to everything he said or did while in office…
The left and the MBM (pardon the redundancy), are trying to use Reagan the same way they use certain “Maverick” republicans; to bash others as being too far out of the mainstream or too extreme. And they think it will work, especially with young folks who were neither alive, nor cognizent, and low information voters, so they feel they have carte blache to portray him as they wish, in this case “Obama-esque”, in order to fit the needs of their narrative™
And it’s up to folks like us who actually remember him to take them to task every time they try to do so…
In an unprecedented and controversial move, the White House has launched a new program at the Department of Labor which will refer workers who have complaints about their bosses to a toll free number at the American Bar Association, where they can get a lawyer to work on their case on a contingency fee basis.
…
The White House in a statement says this is “a new effort between the federal government and private bar to assist complainants” who may need help with “worker rights.” In a statement, the ABA calls this new alliance “unprecedented.”

Fasctastic!
except Reagan never had to glom onto Reagan to make himself look Reaganesque he just did it
Next up: Watch as Ron Reagan, Jr., rifles the pocket of his Dad’s corpse, looking for loose change.
I made it halfway through my governorship
somehow I made it through … half
didn’t know how lost I was
til all those people laughed
I’d been beat… by the elite
I was sad – I had no clue
and it made me feel
yeah it made me feel
like hey maybe I oughter be president you know that would be neat
For more creamy goodness see #13 above.
Business ought to take Obama’s proclaimed obligation and slap him across the face with it.
If you mean “out-spend” you should just say so you coward. Jeez no wonder you and Meghan’s daddy have gone from bitter rivals to painting each others’ toenails
out-educate, out-innovate, and out-build
Central Planning from central casting. Jeff Probst would be soooo proud. We are so fucked.
On the bright side, Richard Dawson is available for a nominal fee.

On cue, Happy Andy Sullivanfeet makes the obligatory appearance.
Sullyfeet! That’s got promise. That was a barnburner. I think it might have been Sullyfeet’s barn.
I’m putting this in the Reaganesque thread cause I can.

And cause Lil Miss Snackcakes hates her some Reagan.
IIRC – wasn’t Ron Reagan, Jr. the one who did that ‘Risky Business’ spoof on SNL? And please – why should I take his assessment on anything seriously?
And I do remember seeing Pres. Reagan’s funeral. I was in a pub in East Lansing, and it was on the televisions. And I cried.
And that bar was very quiet then.
I just want to know who decided the adjective is “Reaganesque”, rather than “Reaganish”, “Reaganoid”, “Reaganic”, “Reagan-y”, or any other similar construct. The sudden appearance of a bunch of pieces describing Obama as “Reaganesque” almost suggests some sort of, uh coordinated <cough>(Journolist)<cough> effort.
Have a listen to this video. Worrisome, just a bit?
– The snowbilly is being unhelpful again.
happyfeet is or would like to be Ron Reagan Jr. Based on the fact that they’ve never been seen together, I favor the former.
that’s crazy talk really Mr. Thorn hey did you see they finally got Farscape season 4 on netflix? It’s a true fact.
Ron Jr wasd always a leftist, who allowed the gay community to smear his dad. Why the fuck would I listen to what he has to say?
“out-educate, out-innovate, and out-build”
Then get the hell out of our way Barak and let us get on with the business at hand.
“Reaganesque” dates back to, I think, the 1988 campaign for the Republican nomination. I think Dole was trying to claim he’d be a more Reagan-like president than Poppy Bush. ICBW.
SGT Ted,
I find it especially ironic that Ron Jr claims Sarah Palin “is a soap opera, basically. She’s doing mostly what she does to make money and keep her name in the news,” when he has quite literally been a “soap opera”, making a career out of bashing his father and trying to tear down his legacy.
It’s amazing that the cumslut hoochie can speak w/o telepromters. Surely that’s just another sign of how stupid she is.
maybe if she had a teleprompter she might could be more substantive and less trite and duh
it’s sort of a nostalgic hallmark card conservatism what she panders to mostly…she just has to hit the notes it’s not like it matters in what order she hits them
“maybe if she had a teleprompter she might could be more substantive and less trite and duh”
Why don’t you get one and show us. If anyone needs to be more substantive and less trite and duh, it’s you happyfeet.
And please, spare me the rubber/glue nonsense.
teleprompters are probably spensive, no?
hey you know who else doesn’t use teleprompters? Snooki! And snooki’s as good a republican as you can get she’s very staunch and kind of personable sometimes when she’s not tired or drunk.
“teleprompters are probably spensive, no?”
Eh, just write on your hand. If it’s good enough for a vice presidential candidate, it’s probably good enough for a anonymous blog commenter.
FUHF.
Yeah. Imagine: nostalgic conservatism in a Reagan centennial celebration speech, given at the Reagan ranch. How crazy is that!

Milli Vanilli Presidenti.
Ever notice how Democrats are always invoking FDR and JFK and nobody blinks? Not even other Democrats might want a bigger piece of those mantles in which to wrap themselves and their own ambitions. There’s only one name in our politics to conjure with.
I love it that the media is attempting to dress little Barry in the great man’s suit. It serves to remind everyone outside of the Obama cult just how truly small he is. I particularly enjoy that Barry is the epitome of the media’s dismissal of Reagan –a narrow minded smooth talker who makes us (“us” in this case meaning “them”) comfortable with our own prejudices.
I get nostalgic too whenever I try to figure out how to unfuck my country.

Ha ha …that reminds me. The lady who does media analysis for Fox (usually on Sundays?) anyway, she remarked yesterday how they’ve tried to pin a ton of presidents on obama. First Lincoln. FDR. Kennedy. Now Reagan. It’s hilarious.
Found at “The Other McCain”
Not looking good.
we have to prop up our violent puppetwhore I guess
go USA!
Ah, now we see what has Obama sending in the Marines.
Have to protect your activist brothers.
it’s very very difficult to make sense of what bumblefuck is doing really … him and the whore secretary of state don’t seem to have any particular goal in mind
This senior Marine told our source that the Pentagon will deploy “multiple platoons” to Egypt over the next few days and that the official reason will be ‘to assist in the evacuation of US citizens.
That is exactly what those platoons should be doing and I sincerely hope the alert was given before Friday. There are tens of thousands of US citizens in Egypt and it will take more than “multiple platoons” to evacuate them if Egypt goes pear shaped. I can’t imagine the contigency planning to evacuate that many people in a hurry.
ahh. That makes sense. We know our whore secretary of state met with the muslim brotherhood – she probably told them to hang tight that we’d take care of them later.
For freedom!
I beg to differ. Their end goal has never changed and they use any means at hand. It is the means which change constantly and appear incoherent. That they and others of their ilk believe that they can always benefit from chaos means they will embrace that which will bring it on.
When is somebody gonna point out that it’s the Carter suit that fits?
I agree that we should be doing everything we can to get Americans out safely. I also think that the necessity for doing so was helped along by the actions, inactions, and words coming out of this administration.
Yea, haa haa Ernst. That’s what so funny about what the media is doing with the comparisons.
