Grover Norquist wants Ronnie Raygun on the $10 bill
:puke:



ThinkProgress:



Norquist: Time is right to put ‘Reagan on the $10 bill.’»

In 1997, conservative anti-tax activist Grover Norquist initiated the Reagan Legacy Project, which sought to “name something — a stadium, a stretch of turnpike, anything — after Reagan in every state in the union.” Another proposal favored by the group is to have “Reagan’s image replace that of Alexander Hamilton, the nation’s first treasury secretary, on the $10 bill.” Speaking to the Washington Examiner yesterday, Norquist suggested that the time is right to push that project again. “It sounds like a good time to re-start the conversation about getting Reagan on the $10 bill,” said Norquist. “I don’t know why the Bush administration has dropped the ball on this.”

2. Orrex wants Norquist on a Wile E. Coyote-style rocket
Destination: Who gives a rat's ass?


Somewhere out there, there's probably a bigger asshole than Grover Norquist, but right now I can't think of one.

3. I'm no great fan of Mr. Hamilton, but no effing way.
I'd rather put Tom Paine on the $10.00

4. Grover Norquist wants Ronnie Raygun on the $10 bill
Grover Norquist can eat shit and die.
Grover Norquist deserves to be laid out on the hood of Robert Novack's black Corvette.
Grover Norquist can blow me.

God, I am so sick of these right wing assholes, my heads about to explode.

5. Even his fellow right-wing nutjobs hate Norquist. May he step off a curb in DC in front of Novak.
He is an eminently despicable human being who is hated even by his philosophical soulmates.

His time is up. His day has come and gone.

6. Give it to them, under one condition: no reagan on the dime. Ever.
Just refuse the damn things at the store.

Ask for two fives instead, or a five and five ones, etc.

9. Well, they can mint a $10 billion bill for Reagan....
far more appropriate given his deficit spending...

Bush JR, on the other hand would get all the sewage treatment plants named after him, as with the attempt by San Francisco. Each, of course would have many many millions of $$ in cost overruns... Good $$$$ after shit, after all.

13. I think Grover has enough problems without worrying about our currency.





Being blue and fuzzy would be at the top of the list.

16. Maybe they can get the Liberians to gin up some Hokey
POS for Billy Mays to sell during the Late Late Show on television. That way the intellectually challenged can have their beloved phoney on a bill and the rest of us won't have to look at it.
