On Sean Hannity's pukefest.

10. Ronald Reagan is an "A" husband (according to Nancy!)

9. Ronnie Jr.
The one who said this... http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2003/04/14/ron_reagan/index_np.html

Could we draft this guy? From an ABBA point of view, there is like absolutely NOTHING the Bush campaign can do to stop a Clark/Reagan train.

Too funny...

26. As much as I'd like to see Ronnie Jr shit all over the neocons

6. Not a mention of them making shit up for that film.
Any depiction of Ray-gun that doesn't have him healing the sick or flying around the earth to turn back time and save Lois Lane or fighting 100 agent Smiths is an utter fallacy.

single handedly killing Yuri Andropov and Leonid Brezhnev only to do battle with, and defeat the shambling, undead corpse of Vladimir Lenin Himself. Oh, and the commando raid, he personally commanded, that ended the Iran Hostage Crisis. I think they called that movie The Ratrix.

Edited on Thu Oct-23-03 02:37 PM by SoCalDem
With all the frothing at the mouth from the RW, I am thinking now, that I may actually have to WATCH this thing.. I had NO intention of ever seeing it, until these knuckledraggers started getting their pampers in a twist over it.. It might actually be worth seeing..:)

Chris Matthews has been bloviating about it for THREE DAYS now.. He and Peggy Noonan have been "consoling each other" about how GOOD ole Ronnie was and how UNFAIR this movie is..:)

11. Their Biggest Gripe is That James Brolin is Playing Reagan
And since he's married to Barbra Streisand, the movie has to be terrible.......

32. Biggest gripe I've heard
is they show Reagan cursing, and his family and advosors claim they never heard him curse. If this is true, it should be taken out of the movie.

35. Regardless of that,
if he didn't routinely curse, then they shouldn't have him cursing. It's wrong and it's stupid too.

14. I agree, SoCalDem
I had NO plans to watch this, but with all the pissing and moaning the wingers are doing about it, it just may reflect a
little bit of reality.

I only managed to watch less than a minute of the revolting DC 9-11 on Showtime. It was the part where * was on Air Force One and had "that" picture taken. You know, the one the wingers sold to raise money. Couldn't change the channel
fast enough.

16. "Worst ever"?
Pretty sheltered there, Mikey! I submit for your morbid fascination the following:

"Gigli"
"Manos, Hands of Fate"
"Wing Commander"
"Battlefield: Earth"
"Plan 9 from Outer Space"
"The Others"

Just about anything with the "Dynamite" or "Nuke" rating from Mr. Cranky's. If you think some quickie, piece of shit movie about your "dad" is bad, you really, really, need to get out more!
