Twice in this video, including at the UN, St Ronnie gets all wistful at the idea of the world uniting against the evil space alien hordes.

If the world survived 8 years of this guy, it can make it through a year of the Shrub :crazy:

1. common BOUND?

Isn't that supposed to be common BOND?

Jeeze, Ronnie was as good at malaprops as Shrub is!

2. but instead we settled for Al-Qaeda and the bogus global war on terror

3. sure, it's called a super-ordinate goal

[Divine Discontent]

4. FRANCE DUDE AT THE END

looking up at the end is priceless... like, "woh, Ronnie's gone batshit"

[lumpy]

5. Reagan did not have a handle on reality.

He was famous for spinning tales of his WW2 military experiences...all ,of course, that took place only in the movies.

6. Believe it or not Reagan is actually making sense

Looked at in the abstract- what he's talking about is a superordinate goal.

And guess what folks? We have several of them- petroleum depletion, climate change and overpopulation....

Unfortunately, by the time people start to take them seriously, it'll be way too late.
