I pray you're roasting in hell you ignorant, traitorous bastard. Fuck you very much to the worst President in American history.

Tell me boomerang, do you celebrate Benedict Arnold's birthday too?
Please don't launch into any traitor-in-chief shit, OK? It's been very peaceful around here without all that.

Why some choose to be all butt hurt in regards to a dead man who hasn't held office in over two decades is beyond me. I guess it somehow soothes the leftie soul?

We can't change the past but we are determining the future right now.

Hey, I was thinking about asking for a stickie until midnight tonight. What do you guys think? I'd thought I'd wait until the thread got to the name calling stage and we're just about there.

Wow, you're as misguided in your view of Reagan as El Rushbo and Sarah Pinhead.

No, really aren't. The man is the direct cause of most of the crap we have to deal with today, at least economically, commercially, with world view, and religiously. He did good on the nuke treaties, but that's about it.

We are still pissed because Reagan escaped justice. The ghosts of his victims won't lay quiet.

Hey you forgot about Greneda, without that action the great movie Heartbreak Ridge would have never been made

Tell we what you think a reasonable time line is for forgiving traitors?

Is there a single Republican president from, let's say the last 100 years that you guys don't think belongs behind bars?

This thread is about Reagan. The war criminal who saw rape, torture, and murder as proper tools to advance democracy in El Salvador and Nicaragua. The man who committed treason to fund his Contra thugs. He was a disgrace. It speaks volumes about the character of folks who idolize this butcher.

G H W Bush, Gerald Ford, Eisenhower, Warren Harding off the top of my head.

I wasn't to happy with Reagan making deals with the Iranians to get elected and then supplying them arms afterward as a reward. I also wasn't too happy about him supporting the Contras and I definitely was pissed about Lebanon

Don't lay that friggin' guilt trip shit on me because it rolls off my back like water off a duck's ass.

I post a happy birthday thread to poke fun at fundies like yourself and you take the bait and run with it. So, let's how far and how fast you're willing to go.

Answer the question, which if any Republican presidents don't belong behind bars in your world view?

Abe Lincoln...but it works out because repubs want him behind bars.

Eisenhower was a mixed bag. He was half great, and half crap. Green-lighting Kermit alone puts him on shaky ground.
