THE JOHN BELUSHI MOMENT

It was the best thing to happen during the Reagan Era, and, sadly, there were few things during that bleak twelve year period (factoring in Bush) to even come close. We named an airport after Ronnie, but, personally I feel that it would have been far, far better and much more rational to name something after Joliet Jake.

Reagan really was a horrible man. If you are sensible and human, you know that. It looks like the next four years will be a replay of all the worst lizard themes from that time.

You disagree? Please do some homework and develop a brain.

The Teamsters supported Reagan, and to this day I ignore their picket lines.


A pipe-maker I know from the internet reminded me of the movie. Essentially, it's about rebellion and defiance of the law.
We have a long & honourable history of that.

Let's hope that spirit still lives.


Of course, Aretha also sang it best.
And might be more appropriate.

THINK!

I have to disagree slightly about Ol'Ronny Raygun, but i'm a Brit so am excused thinking too hard. But any President who advertised for cigarettes can't be all bad can he (I'll spare you the link to the poster, I'm sure you know it).

And, perhaps more importantly, he kept "Spitting Image" in business...back when we were allowed to make fun of politicians on principle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cb71YBLCqYU

Chesterfield, heh heh heh.

Thanks for the youtube link. That is a show of which I was entirely unaware. And by gum, that DOES sound like uncle Ronnie.
