Earth to Freeper dumbass idiots.....RONALD REAGAN WAS AN ACTOR TOO!!!!!

[LynneSin]

According to IMDB, Reagan was a part of 78 TV shows and Movies throughout his 25+ years as an actor in Hollywood. Hell both of his wives, Jane Wyman and Nancy Davis, were also actresses in Hollywood.

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001654/

In fact, Reagan was more of a Hollywood Actor. Although Franken did have a career doing a few movies and standup commedy, he was best known for being a multi-Emmy winning writer of the "Saturday Night Live" Staff.

1. You call what Reagan did acting? O vey!

I'd call it hack acting, thus he was a hack actor.

[LynneSin]

4. Never said the guy had any talent

but he was a Hollywood Actor.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

2. Harvard -

ask them where Ronnie Raygun went to college.

Then ask them where Al Franken got his degree.

Yeah, uh-huh................

[HubertHeaver]

6. Ronnie went to Eureka College, Eureka Il

[Bluzmann57]

8. Problem is that bush went to Yale

And there is no doubt that Reagan, even dead, is smarter than bush ever will be. Just because Reagan went to a college which no longer exists doesn't make him any less intelligent than one who went to a "big name" college. His lack of intellect does that.

[HubertHeaver]

15. Eureka College still exists.

I looked it up      http://www.eureka.edu/home.htm    

[Bluzmann57]

20. Ok. Sorry

Sorry for any misinformation.

[HubertHeaver]

23. He was also a Cubs announcer. Did the Cubs games the same

way he did his presidency--made it up as he went along.

[Bluzmann57]

24. That I knew

He also worked at a radio station in this very city. All before I was born. Incidentally, the station is now a right wing talker. Maybe Reagan was psychic? Or is that psycho?

[HubertHeaver]

25. I'll take psycho for 600, alex

I used to live 7 miles south of Dixon. The Reagan worship always was really heavy, really sickening.

Ah, yes. WOC radio and television. I remember them as skewed a little right (compared to the Dixon Telegraph).

And how are things in Couch these days?

[Bluzmann57]

27. My couch needs to be replaced

What is the couch you are referring to?

[Brother Buzz]

32. Cubs spring training camp in California was his springboard into acting

He was able to network with all the right people that played out on Catalina island; people that made his screen test and studio contract a reality.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

22. Fuckface was a legacy -

Al Franken washed dishes as a Work-Study student.

Compare those two life stories....................

[LynneSin]

28. Bush would have never gone to Yale if he didn't have family pull

Seriously!

[Tangerine LaBamba]

29. Or Harvard

If he hadn't been a Bush, he'd never have gone to his prep school or any of those universities.

Don't forget that the one time he tried to venture out of his family bubble, he applied to U of Texas law school - and was turned down................

[LynneSin]

31. To be honest, Bush's ass would have been in Vietnam

or a local community college.

[Cha]

3. I'm betting Franken is smarter than

ronnie ever was.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

5. Yeah but that's not saying a lot now. I know of inanimate objects

that would have given Ronnie a run for his money.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

7. Shhhhhhhh. We're not supposed to remember facts or annoying things like that. nt

[HubertHeaver]

9. Ronnie told us that facts are stupid things.

And he did tend to create his own reality.

[nekkid]

11. And trees are polluters

I remember that one

[NewJeffCT]

13. and ketchup is a vegetable

and had an administration more corrupt than every other administration of the 20th century - combined.

[Blue_Tires]

19. welcome to the site!

[Pool Hall Ace]

33. Wha . . . ?

OMG, I had to Google that one. You weren't kidding! :wow:

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[madrchsod]

10. a d-list actor....

[NewJeffCT]

12. And don't forget - Fred Thompson, Gopher, Sonny Bono

and more than a few others...

[redqueen]

14. The Governator, too.

[NewJeffCT]

16. knew I was forgetting a biggie

thanks!

Clint Eastwood was a Republican, I believe.

[LynneSin]

18. Wel the thing is Freepers treat Ronnie like he was the second coming of Jesus

:grr:

[redqueen]

21. Even worse, Arnie was a bodybuilder before he was an 'actor'.

And yeah, Eastwood is a republican. He says he's a libertarian, but you know how that goes.

He is so blindly republican he endorsed McCain.

[question everything]

17. As was/is Fred Thompson who, for a while was the hope

of conservatives in 2008, and Sonny Bono.

[DFW]

26. Fundamental difference

Reagan wasn't a very good actor, a trait he used in his later life as a politican.

[devilgrrl]

30. What are they whining about? The only people they run are actors!

:wtf:

[GreenTea]

34. And he was a hater of the poor, a union buster oil corporate stooge & a bad actor for

many years going nowhere then the republicans offered him a job to be a neocon bully and he fit right in.
