Who here knew that Reagan's father was an abusive drunk???

But boy we're going to hear how awful Obama's father was from the MSM.

1. I know I heard that a number of times. Probably MSM but my selection

of MSM is a little off the beaten path. Not like some after-birther-bagger that's being pounded with Obama's dad stuff by FOX News nightly.

2. I got it from Lou Cannon's biography of Reagan

Never heard it on TV.

3. You would think...

with the job market sucking, gas prices being so high, and the neverending wars continuing that the opposition party would attack Obama on some legitimate issues. Why waste anyone's time with this sideshow crap?

4. It's all over "Dutch," probably one reason why the book flopped with Reagan groupies

5. Yep....I've Read That n/t

[kwassa]

6. I did.

Reagan's ability to deny reality came as a defense mechanism from growing up in that environment.
