Comments on: Reagan Funeral GOP FuckFest Nearly Over http://marc.perkel.com/2004/06/11/reagan-funeral-gop-fuckfest-nearly-over/ Marc Perkel is the most dangerous mind on the Internet Wed, 29 Dec 2010 02:44:56 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Alex Libman http://marc.perkel.com/2004/06/11/reagan-funeral-gop-fuckfest-nearly-over/comment-page-1/#comment-2338 Alex Libman Sat, 12 Jun 2004 15:43:51 +0000 http://www.perkel.com/wp/?p=238#comment-2338 And now for my softy side: Even though I disagree with his politics, even very strongly disagree about some issues, I just cannot hate Reagan as a person. I'm not old enough to have fully understood his effect on America while he was President, but if what we hear now on TV is true, then he was a person of great personal conviction which lead him to tremendous success and happiness in both personal, professional, and political life. I can definitely admire his longevity, his relationship with his wife, his sense of humor, interpersonal charisma, etc, etc, etc. Basically, I think it's important to be able to separate personal qualities from political agenda. (Heck, I even believe that Lenin was one of the brightest minds of political science of the 20th century and that Hitler was one of the best orators.) So, yeah, a president who served 8 years in office with such high public approval deserves this much media coverage. But when Fox News started to pull the "Dubya is a successor to Reagan's vision for America" subtext bullshit, for me it devalued Reagan (and the GOP) far more than it elevated Bush. I hope I'm not alone in this. But, yeah, deep down, I can be a succer for all this "shining city on a hill" stuff. Scary to think ... if McCain would have been nominated in 2000, I might have ended up a Republican, driving my Escalade with an "I'm too rich to pay taxes" bumper sticker to Washington and going "yaay Reagan" ... The horror! The horror! ~~Alex~~ And now for my softy side: Even though I disagree with his politics, even very strongly disagree about some issues, I just cannot hate Reagan as a person.

Bring on more as yet unseen racist, sadistic, satanic American torture photos of taxi drivers, children, women, butchers, shop owners and other Iraqi civilians who were incarcerated by neocon facists!

If you want to attack him when he's alive or when president or when he's long dead, then all's fair. On the day of his funeral, then you just look bad. Your timing is off!

I've got an M.A. in Russian and would like to hear if there really is Russian spoken in the video. The dirty work could have been contracted out to the Russians by the CIA. Also, the CIA snuff video could have been uploaded from England! Hey, if it doesn't come from Al Jazeera, don't expect me to believe it.
