Ron Reagan Jr. is on fire tonight on MSNBC's "After Hours"
He's politely bitch slapping Republicans who keep making empty statements.

I think he's asked 3 or 4 different Bush supporters if they would have liked to see Bush go after and capture Osama rather than invading a country that didn't support international terrorism and had no WMD.

Each person seemed to just stammer afterwards.

Classic!

1. Ron Reagan Jr. is the best thing President Reagan ever did.
I think Ron Jr. has a very promising career as a liberal/moderate TV pundit ahead of him.

16. He had a show on HBO 20 years ago that I hear was pretty entertaining.
He has always been extremely comfortable in front of the camera and has a really warm relationship with viewers. He's got some skills. Not exactly numchuck skills, but skilz nonetheless.

3. yeah. It turns out that Ron Reagan is a class act . . .
although he is a tad bit confused (and biased) about his late Dad. But he's got Dumbya's number.

9. WTF do you mean by that? are planes WMD? no.
not like Nukes, chem agents or bioagents. what are you smoking? An automatic weapon or some fertilizer and diesel fuel are WMD according to your criteria.

Saddam had no WMD. got it? good.

7. Dump Scarboy
and get Reagan. He's more interesting and I think the network could sustain better ratings with a left of center host. Plus he has wit and humor, very much unlike Scarboy who is a partisan hack. It would set the network apart for sure (it wouldn't be a bad lineup - Olberman, Norvile, and then Reagan).

10. Ron Reagan has been wonderful!
He is so sharp & witty...he can make people look like fools.

I know Reagan Sr is not well thought of, but he & Nancy did something right.

I think most times, kids are a reflection of the kind of parents they had.

Patti Davis, his sister, is also a liberal.

12. I wish someone had mentioned to that woman who's 9 months pregnant
that her child will be paying for her boy Bush's tax cuts when he/she grows up.

14. he's a smart man. I like him and the repugs are sort of put back by him
because he's smart, fearless and a Reagan. Scarborough is sort of stand back from him because he's Reagan, Jr. Very funny to watch.

17. His Dad would be proud
I like him. Since W tried to run in 2000, Ron has not been afraid to say what his parents thought of the Bush tribe.

Didn't he used to do sports commentary? Kennel Shows? I just keeping thinking of the movie "Best in Show" when I see him. I think he's sassy like Fred Willard.

15. Ron Reagan
Just a thought...

Repubs are always knocking Hollywood for being such a liberal bastion but Ronald Reagan's two children from actress Jane Wyman are/were the conservatives, and the two with Nancy are the liberals.

24. When did this guy get articulate and smart?
I always liked the affable son. But when the heck did he get so articulate and smart? It happened when I wasn't looking. Or he simply didn't have much to say before, things going along relatively okay.

But what a breath of fresh air he is on the air. Regardless of his opinions (I happen to agree with him, though), he has emerged as articulate, if not more so, than his dad. His mother has every reason to be proud, although I'm sure she disagrees with his views on some things.

Viva la Ron Reagan.
