Ronnie – Here is a line from my best selling book:
I have brought “Change” to the White House, where you (Reagan) and your minions were carrying out your dirty deeds.

I read your book and I don’t know what you mean by limited government, strong military and rugged individualism. Can you ‘splain these to me? pretty please?”

Reagan (thinking): “Help! Someone please send my bust back to the British, c/o Margaret Thatcher. Stat!” — Obama: “There, there. It’s okay. If you were a community organizer, you would have been on Mt. Rushmore like me.”

More entries:

Next to TOTUS, you’re taught me *ALL* I know.

TOTUS hearts The Great Communicator. [Spoken sincerely, but having no idea how stupid this sounds.]

Did they call you “The Gripper” because you were able to hold on to the job for two terms?

Reagan’s response, “Don’t know you son, go your own way.”

Or, when Obama pleads, “Please, please help me pull this off?”

Reagan might have used W.C. Fields famous line, “Go away kid, you bother me.”

The_Gadfly

But it will need at least a full torso statue. Same question, next panel, the statue is holding a button labeled “Voodo Economics” in the palm of its outstretched hand.

I’ve always loved the cartoon of Bush Sr. sitting at his desk under the picture of Reagan, a declining economic chart in his hand, and the button with the same label under glass, and the standard “In case of an emergency break glass” label on the outside.

Yeah, yeah…limited government, rugged individualism, inspired leadership, honest confrontation, folksy good humor…I got all that. But tell me. What’s the secret of your success?

Obama is definitely in whiny farmboy mode. (and yes, I know I’m not misquoting Luke… makes it funnier)

Reagan, though. Reagan has become more powerful than Obama can comprehend, as an exemplar of conservative governance…

I’ll never sleep with my Hugo doll again. You and me. It’s you and me. So please, please please tell me. You said it to GW, why can’t you say it to me. I need to hear it from you. Just once.

::crickets::

OK. So you can’t say “4 more years.” Alright, I can live with that. It’s only that I was sorta hoping you wouldn’t hold that stuff against me.

Tell me now is it so don’t let me be the last to
