Pic Of The Moment: How The Best GOP President Evah Dealt With A Deadly Virus On *His* Watch

[calimary]

34. "If there had been no ronald reagan, would the USA have had to invent him?"

I dunno. Probably. This was a gift straight from Satan's bowels. The CON-wing prayed for something like him. A spokesman/salesman who could effectively sell their putrid, anti-social, anti-Christian gospel of greed and gluttony and selfishness. They didn't have much of that before reagan. Then, reagan arrived on the scene in California after the ground had been left fertile and plowed and ready to accept the seed-planting of the Joys of the Mercenary Class. And he silver-tongued and sweet-talked the message straight into people's lizard brains. All that's left, after the damage he did and the destruction he begat and led and inspired, is a sense of nearly-futile and half-hearted relief that we won't see someone like him again. His kind of impactful figure happens once in a generation, or maybe once in a lifetime. And it'll probably TAKE a lifetime, or a generation or more, to reverse the horrors he set in motion. Particularly when I don't see ANYBODY but a small handful onstage now who can champion the opposite message to roll back the reagan disaster. People like Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders - and that's only two. There AREN'T all that many more.
