“Kerry postpones campaign events in honor of Reagan
Associated Press

TOLEDO, Ohio - Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry lauded Ronald Reagan's legacy of bipartisanship Sunday and canceled five days of campaign events in honor of the former president's death.

"Yesterday, we lost one of our great optimists," Kerry told graduating seniors at Bedford High School. "President Reagan's belief in America was infectious. And because of the way he led, he taught us that there was a difference between strong beliefs and bitter partisanship."

"Free men and women everywhere will forever remember and honor President Reagan's role in ending the Cold War," Kerry said. "He really did believe that communism could be ended in his lifetime, and he helped to make it happen. Perhaps President Reagan's greatest monument isn't any building or any structure that bears his name, but it is the absence of the Berlin Wall."”

“That's a nice thought from Kerry.

I hadn't heard about this dimise of communism.
Aren't there more communists in the world than Muslims?”

it really shows the true colors of all democrats.

after reading that post, you can't deny that all democrats are really pinko commie bastards and terrorists who's only goal is to destroy our glorious country from within.

My Eulogy for Paul Wellstone

This thread is full of slobbering "horse#&%!$" about wellstone. Montag, I like your eulogy and it's worth repeating:
"My eulogy: Good riddance you Commie dog!"

My sentiments exactly. I could care less about what a fine and upright man he was. He chose to align himself with the folks who are tearing this country apart. Good riddance.

History is full of tyrants, dictators, hypocrites, thieves, and all manner of wretches who "genuinely believed in those principles (they) championed." Sorry, but just being a true believer doesn't pass the Fawning Eulogy Test.

He finally made a positive impact on the country, pun intended. Good riddance to the commie.

It's just a shame the plane wasn't larger and filled with more traitorous leftists like this scumbag. Good riddance!

It is quite tactful to post nice things about people who have died.

Why are you posting?

Wellstones' beliefs were of the most disturbing in the Democratic Party. He was a traitor to the US Constitution. He made his living off the poor in this country by exploiting their plight and KEEPING THEM DOWN.

I applaud the powers-that-be that caused his plane to go down. I see it almost as divine intervention. I am only crying because Ted Kennedy was not with him at the time.

BTTT.... if the principles are amoral or lead to an evil outcome if taken to their logical conclusion... what good did he contribute? His death, while tragic, will ultimately save American lives... A Dem majority in the Senate = Appease Arab terror.

I don't expect that you would have said all this if he hadn't died the way he did.

Paul Wellstone was a consistent obstacle to righteousness and righteous legislation in the Senate, especially under President Bush. I can't imagine how you can eulogise someone who was an enemy of everything we stand for (if we're conservative).

Paul Wellstone wasn't a good man plain and simple.

Wellstone died because, like all egotistical self-important politicians, the truth to him was relative. I personally heard him promise not to run a second term and argued with his son at the Sherburne County Fair when he broke that promise. I personally heard him promise not to run a 3rd term. If he had kept his promise, he'd likely be alive today. He died because he lied.

A Wellstone Tribute

The only "straight up and honest democrats" are laying horizontal in a cemetery somewhere with Wellstone. In other words, there aren't any, and haven't been many for a long time.

I can't wait for the wonderful "Paul Wellstone Is Still Dead and Hillary Murdered Him Festival!"
It is going to be so much fun. Lots of booze, lewinskis, dems going wild, you knowm typical dem stuff. Hillie certainly did a great job, taking out the only guy with national attention who was to the left of her. She didn't know about Dean but she's still got time to work on him if he gets too big.

Name a lake after the late Sen. Wellstone? Why not instead name an abortion clinic after this champion of choice? Let the inscription beneath his name read, "He stood up for the little guy."
Hey, I like that idea! That would be so appropriate!

Has it been a year, already? It is time for the annual, "Thank God, Paul Wellstone Is Still Dead Festival." In fact, many of the infants conceived at the orgy, dope, and hate fest last year will certainly be there, if for no other reason than some of the beloved single moms might want to see if they can identify that fathers.
Hillie may not attend and may still be pouting. She had the same guy who did Willie Brown and the whole plane load of folks do Paul to take out anyone to the left of her without even thinking that Howard Dean would fill that space.

The First Anniversay Festival will be great! Lots of booze, dope and hookers, just the kind of stuff that dems love. Torricelli won't make it, but Lewinski will.

“How many balanced budgets did Reagan ever submit to congress?”

“Uhm, none?”

“That congress would have gladly passsed a balanced budget if only he had submitted one, right?

Yeah, right.

Reagan's budgets are what you call "compromise," which can of course be spun as either a good thing or a bad thing depending on your POV.”

“He never submitted one, so it's impossible to say.

The fiscal responsibility quote is somewhat odd in light of recent "budgets", wouldn't you say? That's the problem with having all three branches of government sewn up --- How do you shift the blame?”

“The "control freak conservatives" have all the marbles now yet they seem to have lost control of the budget, of foreign affairs, etc.

Let's just hope they don't lose their marbles.”

“That's the problem with having all three branches of government sewn up --- How do you shift the blame?"

umm. what 3 branches ?

do you mean the executive (comprised of the president and his cabinet #&%!$es),
the president's judge #&%!$es,
and the president's law #&%!$es ?”

“Who doesn't like Reagan?
Some critics silent, others can't hide venom

Posted: June 7, 2004
1:00 a.m. Eastern



While some long-time critics of President Ronald Reagan stifled their inclination to criticize the dead, others launched the kind of venomous attacks that marked his long career in politics.

Libyan leader Moammar Khadafy said yesterday he regretted Reagan died without ever standing trial for 1986 air strikes he ordered that killed the Libyan president's adopted daughter and 36 other people.

Ronald Reagan ordered the April 15, 1986, air raid in response to a discotheque bombing in Berlin allegedly ordered by Khadafy that killed two U.S. soldiers and a Turkish woman and injured 229 people.

"I express my deep regret because Reagan died before facing justice for his ugly crime that he committed in 1986 against the Libyan children," Libya's official Jana news agency quoted Khadafy as saying.

Stateside, the verbal attacks were just as vicious.

Ed Weathers, a writer for the Memphis Flyer, had this to say: "Forgive me, but I am about to speak ill of the dead.

"In the coming months, the Republican propaganda machine will shift into high gear. Their goal: to turn Ronald Reagan into a saint. Just watch. First will come the coffin in the Capitol rotunda. Then there will be a proposal to put Reagan’s face on the dollar coin. Next will come a demand that his statue appear on the Washington Mall. And at the Republican Convention in September – oh, just wait. The highlight of that week will be a long, elegiac video of Saint Ronald, with moving music, snippets of favorite speeches, and the voiceover of, say, Charlton Heston. When the video ends, there will be heard the rapturous cheers of the faithful.

"Then George W. Bush will try to ride Ronald Reagan’s coffin back into the White House.

"For that reason, it is necessary now to speak ill of the dead.

"As president, Ronald Reagan was a mediocrity. He has left no legacy. He did not change the world in any significantly good way. His greatest achievement was to win a war with Grenada. He ran for president blaming Jimmy Carter for high gas prices and for letting Americans be taken hostage in Iran – both situations that no American president could have prevented.”

Trevor Royle of the Sunday Herald in Scotland offered this assessment: "Reagan remained an actor, not a doer.

"Perhaps because he saw himself as a patriot, a Forrest Gump before his time, he allied himself with the McCarthy faction and joined those Hollywood bigots who lined themselves up against anything that smacked of communism and the perils of the Soviet Union at the height of the Cold War in the early 1950s," wrote Royle. "It was unworthy of him and unworthy of the country at the time, but it marked him and had he not entered politics he could have ended up a bad actor who chose bad politics."

David Swanson, media coordinator for the International Labor Communications Association, wrote this for AlterNet.org: "Reagan is also the source of many of the relationships in Iran and Iraq that have troubled the United States since. Kevin Phillips' recent book "American Dynasty" does a good job of summarizing the strong evidence that Bill Casey and George H.W. Bush made a deal with the Iranians not to release the hostages until after the 1980 U.S. presidential election. This would mean that Reagan's election was illegal, that the trading during the Iran-Contra scandal had a precedent, that Reagan and G.H.W. Bush's buildup of Saddam Hussein's military was motivated in part by a desire to counter weaponry and money that the United States had given Iran in exchange for Reagan's election, that our media has completely fallen down on the job, and that we're all a bunch of suckers."

AlterNet.org also republished a short piece by David Corn of the Nation titled "66 Unflattering Things About Ronald Reagan."

Counterpunch.org published a piece by Phil Gasper called "Ronald Reagan, 1911-2004: Goodbye and Good Riddance."

"Ronald Reagan has finally died at age 93," Gasper wrote. "Predictably, politicians from both major parties have issued gushing tributes to this venal and vicious man, who was happy to slash workers' wages, see families thrown onto the street, support sadistic death squads and bomb other countries, if this was in the interests of the American ruling class."

Blogger Steve Gilliard, in a piece reprinted by the European Bellaciao.org, had this to say: "The hagiography started as soon as they announced Reagan's death. How he ended the Cold War, how he was a decisive leader, all this nonsense about Reagan which is just ridiculous.

"The British have a tradition: When someone dies, their newspaper obituary tells the truth. Americans like to say something kind about the dead, no matter how scummy they were," wrote Gilliard. "Even Nixon got a halo in death, where only Hunter Thompson reminded people of who exactly he was and how the honors given him were, well, wrong. This deification of Reagan began as soon as Clinton took office. There has been pressure to name everything but rest stop toilets after the man."

DemocraticUnderground.com seemed to regret not having enough time to come up with a suitable obituary for Reagan.

"If you're looking for stories about Ronald Reagan in this week's edition, he 'ended communication' a little too close to our deadline. Tune in next week for coverage of the fallout of St. Ronald's passing."

Axisoflogic.com published a commentary by Greg Palast, who wrote: "You're not going to like this. You shouldn't speak ill of the dead. But in this case, someone's got to. Ronald Reagan was a conman. Reagan was a coward. Reagan was a killer."

And Joe Davidson, a columnist for BET.com, the website of Black Entertainment Television, wrote: "It's customary to say good things about the dead. Ronald Reagan appointed the first woman to the Supreme Court. He signed legislation for a national holiday honoring Martin Luther King. He thawed relations with the Soviet Union and signed a nuclear weapons treaty. He was warm and amiable and had a good sense of humor. He liked horses.

"Now let's talk about what he did to Black people."

Davidson went on to claim that "after taking office in 1981, Reagan began a sustained attack on the government's civil rights apparatus, opened an assault on affirmative action and social welfare programs, embraced the white racist leaders of then-apartheid South Africa and waged war on a tiny, Black Caribbean nation. So thorough was Reagan's attack on programs of importance to African Americans, that the Citizens Commission on Civil Rights, an organization formed in the wake of Reagan’s attempt to neuter the official U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, said he caused 'an across-the-board breakdown in the machinery constructed by six previous administrations to protect civil rights.'

"During his two terms in office, Reagan captured, solidified and came to personify America's move to the political right," he wrote. "His greatest legacy is as leader of that swing in the American political spectrum. That shift made 'liberal' a dirty word and Democrats cower. What had been conservative became moderate. What was moderate was pushed to the left wing. The shift was so pronounced and profound that Black America giddily embraced Bill Clinton despite his promotion of programs, criminal justice and welfare policies in particular, that would have been called racist and reactionary under Reagan."”

“Yeah, thanks, V. I hadn't had my dose of Compassionate Conservativism today.”

“Dittos, Tilt ! !

“Wow STRATDEWD nice post, I didnt know Reagan was such a wonderful President.”

“gee, Mark O, is there anything more "American" than PBR? Nice tribute.”

“Red necks, white socks and Blue Ribbon Beer!”

“That song was goin' through my head just the other day!

“Seems The Gipper was right about something after all...

"A moment I've been dreading. George (Vice President George H.W. Bush)brought his ne'er-do-well son around this morning and asked me to find the kid a job. Not the political one who lives in Florida (future Gov. Jeb Bush). The one who hangs around here all the time looking shiftless. This so-called kid is already almost 40 and has never had a real job. Maybe I'll call Kinsley over at The New Republic and see if they'll hire him as a contributing editor or something. That looks like easy work." -- Ronald Reagan in his recently published diaries, May 17, 1986

LMAO!”

“~wicked snicker~”

“But it's so believable!   darn.

It does stretch reality a bit where Ronald allegedly assumes that George could read and write..... but Ronald wasn't that swift either.”

That reminds me of the Back To The Future movie where the professor asks M. J. Fox who was president in 1985.

He was hailed for a supreme example of gobbledegook in talking about star player Wayne Rooney: "He is inexperienced but he's experienced in terms of what he's been through."

George W.Bush came second for "All I can tell you is that when the governor calls, I answer his phone."
