Reagan Dies

He won't be really dead, as long as we remember him.
He won't be really dead, because we can't forget him because:

  • He spent us into debt and spun it so that it's no longer any big deal to the American public that we're debtors, as long as we spend it wisely on big guns and bully pulpits.
  • As the Leader of the Free World, he couldn't be bothered to utter the word "AIDS" until many years after the epidemic began. Do you KNOW how long even a single epidemiological year is???
  • The populace learned that voting with the stomach was the right way to go.
  • His provided the proverbial shoulders-of-giants upon which our great current president stands.
  • He toppled an entire superpower not by ideological means, but by outspending, leaving hundreds of millions of human beings in the ruin of a broken infrastructure, one based largely on organized crime and looting and other forms for vulgar opportunism.
  • We'll be assaulted with glorified, non-factual retrospectives, many led by self-loathing, greedy fucks who will use this event as a means of vulgar opportunism

That all said, I fear that Satan may regret the day he took poor Ronnie home to the fold. In a few decades, when all of the creepy motherfuckers who supported Reagan's Antics also make the trip down to the warmer climes, we may see Reagan running against Lucifer as Leader of the Nether World, maybe with the tagline: "Reagan and Hell, a match Made in Heaven".

Rest in the kind of peace of spirit you gave us non straight-white-rich-males, Ronnie.

Just because you're dead doesn't mean you still can't learn a life lesson or two.
