Friday Fun:
The One Finger Salute:
It's Ronald Reagan Day
Did you know that February 6th was Ronald Reagan Day?
Well, it is.
It's our opportunity to celebrate a mediocre actor who parlayed his fame into becoming one of the worst presidents this country has ever had the displeasure of witnessing. Some of his fuck-ups are still being felt today. In fact, if it weren't for Reagan there would have been no GW Bush and no orange ogre! Yes, Reagan, in his stupid meat-puppet way, managed to totally fuck-up politics in this country forever!
Reagan's sins are many... Debategate, Iran-Contra, denying the existence of AIDS, increasing wealth inequality, the HUD Rigging scandal, numerous lobbying scandals, the savings and loans crisis, the EPA scandals, Operation Ill Wind, the Wedtech Scandal, and his longest lasting legacy - the rise of the conservative right wing and Xtian nationalists. Yeah, old Ronnie let Falwell and the boys in the back door and we've been fucked since.
And let's not forget that during his final years in office, Nancy was basically running the country.
Oh, yeah, honeys - Ronnie boy is the O.G. He actually makes Nixon look good.
Now, given current circumstances, I will admit that Ronald has some major competition what with the orange ogre and his minions running amok in D.C.
But I still say we lay all this at the feet of the GOP and it's decision to run a movie actor for president. And he won. Twice. What's wrong with this country, you ask? What's always been wrong with this country.
So, here's to you, Ronnie... I give you the Wonderland Burlesque One Finger Salute.
You earned it, honey.
Oh... and look on the bright side - at least we don't have to sit through one of his stink-bomb films!
You celebrate your way.
I'm celebrating this mine.
Here's to you, Ronnie boy!
