I’ve gotten a few emails and IM’s about the fact that I haven’t written anything about Ronald Reagan. My reasons:
1.) I have had maybe 10-12 hours of sleep over three nights due to a sick cat (who is doing much better), intense head/neck/back pain (stress and heat — it’s 79F outside but it was 85F in the house before I turned the A/C on when I got home), and other things. Whatever I write would be done in a b*tchy tone and I’d rather save the nasty comments for a time when I can deal with them more effectively than IP banning the commenters.
2.) I have absolutely nothing positive to say about him. He started the financial mishandling of California’s budget, cut education, tripled the deficit with his idiotic policies and tax cuts, and really did nothing of merit in my eyes. (The Cold War stopped because the Soviet Union ran out of money, not because he was a great diplomat as most revisionists would tell you.) I’ll maybe write something when I can actually find something positive he did. (Comments on this entry have been disabled because I don’t feel like dealing with people disputing what I have to say in this paragraph. If you flame me on your page and say that I’m saying this because Reagan was a Republican, I will see to it that you are whipped and dragged to your death throught the streets with people singing comic songs on your grave. Capeche?)
3.) I have had an insane few weeks and barely have the energy to type. Thus, I will go curl up in a corner until the room is cool enough for me to fall asleep. Buh bye.
