Poor Freepies. A $10 Reagan Is All They Got.

[Beloved Citizen]

It really is kind of pitiful. I mean, who else do they have that they can claim needs to be put on our currency? Gerald Ford? Talk about inflationary pressures, put him on a 10 dollar bill and the thing'd be worth a nickel in a month. Nixon? Now there's an idea, put a thief on money and he can pick himself out of your pocket. George H. W. Bush? A head that fat wouldn't fit on any bill. And besides, even pennies are more popular than he ever was. And Shrub? Good God, he'll be lucky if he stays out of jail.

No, all they really have is Ronald Reagan. The president that turned the world's wealthiest money lending nation into the world's foremost debtor.

Maybe they should put his happy-go-lucky Irish mug on the national promissory note instead. Certainly would make more sense.

1. I'd let them put Reagans picture on the front of a $10 bill...

...only if the put this picture on the back of it...

3. And print it in red ink.

2. If they ever mint a red cent, Reagan's face should be on it.

So apropos for those who don't have a single one.
