17. Reagan and his southern strategy is what kills me.

He was an actor playing the role of president as far as I'm concerned. When people deify him it causes the bile to rise to my throat and chokes me. Not to mention the stupid drug war escalation, the dumb ass dare program, him pretending that aids was just a gay thing and requiring increased sentencing for sales of crack compared to cocaine. Gotta give more time in jail for the 'black' drug, right?
Iran contra was a clusterfuck and he sat there and lied about it. And look what a wonderful legacy he left us; GHWB and GWB. Thanks a lot Reagan, we loved it when your partners little brat crashed the economy and gave us two wonderful wars to suffer through and pay for.
I blame Reagan for all of it. Worst president ever!
And Tweety just loves the shit out of this cadaver. Blows my mind.
