The president of conservative pro-family group Faith2Action last weekend announced the pre-launch of ReaganBook, a social networking site described as "the Facebook for patriots," according to Right Wing Watch.

Faith2Action President Janet Porter told attendees at the Ohio Liberty Coalition's "Reload 4 Liberty" event that Facebook has been censoring people like anti-gay activist Peter LaBarbera.

Porter lamented that "while tomorrow Facebook employees are gathering to go march at the gay pride parade in San Francisco," they are censoring people with "unpopular opinions."

She then described ReaganBook as a social network that tears down walls like President Reagan. “We’re tearing down walls of tyranny and censorship," she said.

1. Well, at least Facebook won't be as polluted with right wing trash,

IF this site were a legit competitor.

[DonViejo]

7. It's off to a roaring start....

ReaganBook, now at 36 members, welcomes all individuals to "connect and share freely."

I'll bet they will be up to at least 48 members by sun down this evening.

[Warpy]

14. Maybe if they'd called it HateBook

Now that would have been a definite draw for right wingers.

[riqster]

2. Let's see how quickly they erect walls to keep people like us out.

I figure it'll take a nanosecond, tops.

[lunasun]

3. Seems like an anti gay activist would be building walls to divide people

As ass backwards as Raygun's policies

[brooklynite]

4. I dunno, do they really want to associate themselves with someone who...

...raised taxes?

...raised the Debt Limit 18 times?

...passed immigration reform?

...let our troops get attacked in Lebanon?

...appointed a liberal like Sandra Day O'Connor to the Supreme Court?

[Cosmocat]

10. Right

Any time some dimwitted "conservative" babbles about Reagen I hit them with the exact list you posted ...

Results in either dead silence or enragement ...

[arcane1]

30. You put more thought into this post than any of them have put into Reagan n/t

[cosmicone]

5. Is being demented one of the requirements to join?

Although it could be an advantage ... people wearing diapers can stay online longer because they don't need bathroom breaks. Moreover, loss of memory means your old friends are new friends every day. Such a website will be a great tribute to Reagan.



Note: This is in no way intended to hurt Alzheimer's and other dementia patients or their loved ones. As a neurologist, I know their suffering too well. This is just macabre humor making fun of Reagan only.

[SoCalNative]

6. Good riddance to bad rubbish

Maybe all the cons and libertarian ijits will migrate there.

[valerief]

8. Social media for bots. That's what it'll end up being. nt

[sinkingfeeling]

9. I really wish they'd go form their own country. Can't we give up Texas or Arizona?

[jmowreader]

11. I'd rather give up Florida

Texas and Arizona are too critical to America's transportation infrastructure, as is South Carolina (the other oft-mentioned "new Republican country&quot , because ceding either of them would fuck up east-west transit along I-10 and I-40, and ceding Texas would also cede the Laredo, Hidalgo and El Paso border crossing points - and Laredo is the largest and most important point of entry for road freight in the United States.

Drop the Port of Miami out of our transportation infrastructure, and we have many other ports that can pick up the slack.

[zickie]

31. LET FLORIDA GO!

Never know who those bastards will vote for anyway. Why take a chance? The THUGS can lose now even with Florida especially if they want to keep running ONE PER-CENT MITT.

[El Shaman]

18. Give em both:

Texzona !!

The National song (below- for free !!

[zickie]

23. BETTER YET

How about we open an office in the Gaza Strip for them or maybe in the Ukraine.

[Born4george]

35. Jimmy Carter

LMFAO!!

[jmowreader]

41. Or Somalia

Somalia is the libertarian paradise: no government, all the guns you want, it's perfect.

Well, almost: there is the real small part about people getting dragged out of their beds in the middle of the night and never seen again, or their heads found in different cities from their bodies. But other than that, they'll love it.

[Enrique]

12. tears down walls like President Reagan

[mountain grammy]

13. Reagan's ghost and the zombies who follow.. how special.

[RKP5637]

27. He's back !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zickie]

29. DAWN OF THE DEAD

Reagan looks less dead in this pic than when he was in office. There were piss stains on all the chairs when he left office and closet full of diapers.

[sakabatou]

15. It's going to be like Conservepedia

[cprise]

16. I'm very disappointed they didn't call it FaceReagan

or ReaganFace.

BigotBook would be the most accurate, IMHO.

[zickie]

28. FACE REAGAN AND PUKE!!

I could hardly Face Nancy that Ironing Board who falls down.

[Born4george]

37. Nancy Reagan

She's not exactly doing the Hucklebuck these days. lmao

[santamargarita]

17. These interlopers don't fit in anywhere in this country, they're hated,

their religion and ideas involve terrorism. They already have a pick and choose bible used for war.
Just call your new site Reganshit, that would best describe it.

[displacedtexan]

19. Sounds like copyright infringement to me.

"Facebook" for patriots?

I hope Zuckerberg goes after them bigtime.

[dembotoz]

25. yeh i would imagine someone is already taking a look at that one

but if they put the server on the bundy ranch they could get away with it

[SansACause]

20. AKA FarmersOnly.com

Nt

[Blue Idaho]

21. Worst a President Ever meets Worst Social Media Website Ever.

I can smell the epic fail from here...

[Aerows]

33. No, that's the

horse shit from the idiots that started it that you are smelling

[Blue Idaho]

42. I love the smell of horse shit in the morning... nt.

[zickie]

22. They ought to call it FEEBLE BOOK

I mean this fuckn' FEEBLE WART goes and hires a Wall Streeter to run the Treasury. Good-Bye fair wages, Good-Bye Union Representation. Now you can go buy your $30-40,000 cars from people making them for $8-10.00 an hour in Mississippi, South Carolina and Mexico. Is it any wonder they are ALL on recall? Hear about the Honda transmissions, Nissan engines and God only knows, I lost track of how many Toyota recalls they've had. Not to mention the Big Three here. GOOD THINGS NO CHEAP. CHEAP THINGS NO GOOD....This guy DESTOYED this country. I was making way more money before these ReTHUGlicans got their hands on everyone's money. But oh watch your guns and fetuses while we take away your wages. Don't look now.....!!

[Born4george]

36. Troublemaker

ReaganBook... It isn't about a goat, is it?

[daleo]

24. Bunch of socialists, starting a social network

This hardly seems appropriate for a bunch of rugged individualists.

[bravenak]

26. Dorkbook.nt

[Aerows]

34. Flakebook. n/t

[Aerows]

32. I don't get the Reagan worship

Hell, in today's political climate, he would be considered a liberal.

[lastlib]

38. What they need to do:

Build a Right-wing website that merges YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook. And call it:

[font size=10]

"ReaganYouTwitFace"

[/font size]

[Politicalboi]

39. They should call it

ThereUGoAgain Book.

[CaptainTruth]

40. TROLL!

Troll troll troll!

Hot damn this is gonna be sooooo much fun!

I wonder if the username Sarah Palin is taken yet?
