Enough Reagan threads yet?

Come on people, I know your all upset, but let's get on with our lives.

1. I will when Congress will

If they have it their way, they'd name everything after Reagan and have his picture on every coin.

There are 3, count'm THREE separate bills in congress to have Reagans face put on 50cent piece (Rep. Jeff Miller, a Florida Republican), $10 bill (Senate Majority Whip Mitch McConnell) and $20 dollar bill (Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, a California Republican). Plus talk of putting Reagan on the dime.

The guy ruined our country, I surely DON'T want to see his face on any currancy!!

2. I think it's a way to ridicule this renaming everything crap.

And Guy...don't forget that Lady Thatcher is getting long in the tooth. This idiotic re-naming everything nonsense over here may spread to Britain when Maggie kicks the bucket.

3. I doubt it. Unless one can rename landfills.

7. "The Margaret Thatcher Dump".

No comment. :-)

8. I'd like to take a Margaret Thatcher dump.

Preferably on her grave.
:evilgrin:

5. That would never happen...

Not even Churchill managed to get on our money. Darwin has though :) & the Queen (God bless 'er) is on all our money.

9. I told Doug, my Canadian boyfriend, that I hope this idiocy...

doesn't happen when Brian Mulrooney departs from this mortal coil.

10. Given our near-total undying love for the 'roney, that's a real worry, T.

Not.

(God, I haven't used 'not' like that in ten bloody years)

11. I hope not, SLB. And regarding the upcoming elections...

Doug says that the "New Conservatives" or whatever the fuck they're calling themselves are almost running neck and neck with the Liberals, with the NDP seemingly holding the balance of power. It will be a minority government. My question is why the fuck would sane, rational person vote for Stephen Harper, anyway?

[Screaming Lord Byron]

12. People are furious at the Liberals.

And they have an annoying tendency to think in either/or terms. "Well, if I can't vote Liberal, I have to vote Con".
Martin is a lousy campaigner and the Liberals are defeating themselves. Harper doesn't need to do much.

4. Oh, that's easy for you to say, Guy!

You wait until Maggie kicks the bucket.

Then you will understand the grief and trauma we are all going through here! ;)

6. We had some shit when Di died.

It was fucking scary, people went completely do-lally.
