I had to puke this morning.
Bill Bennett was on Washington Journal and he quoted George Will about Ronald Reagan taking control of the ship on rough waters and he calmed the ship and then he calmed the waters... or some such tripe.

I'm starting to recover a little bit. Yuk!

4. A more apt analogy would be he took control of the ship and
recklessly caused it to take on water and sink in the turbulent seas, killing everyone on board except the few wealthy passengers who escaped in lifeboats after looting the ship's safe.

Revisionist history - I have never understood the love some have for reagan. Never will.

12. Reagan calmed the waters
for the rich yachts to make it through the storm, but the rest of the vessels were left fending for themselves. The troof the way I remember it.

13. Billy "Jackboot" Bennett? The guy who defended Jesse Helms’ racist White Hand campaign ad?

Funny he should mention Reagan, seeing how he walked out on him when he was his Secretary of Education - for money. He also walked out on Bush the first when he was his Drug Czar - for money. He walked out on the nomination to chair the RNC for - wow, what a suprise - money.

Dudes just a whore....
