fuck reagan. seriously.
Remember that time that Ronald Reagan FUCKING PRIVATIZED EVERYTHING and DEREGULATED THE SHIT OUT OF THE ECONOMY and everyone had an orgasm? Yeah, I sure am glad that America voted for him twice. He sure was an amazing president, despite the fact that he DESTROYED THE ECONOMY AT THE TIME. I sure am glad we have the GOP to combat irresponsible government spending! OH, OH WAIT. NEVERMIND.
Sorry, I’m getting distracted by how much I hate Ronald Reagan. It probably doesn’t help that everyone and their cousin loves the fuck out of him. Also, how does everyone love both Ronald Reagan and FDR? Like, how does that even work? The two are polar fucking opposites. The one destroyed the economy, the other one was all over saving it like a bum on a ham sandwich; the one was like HAY LETS USE AN INVADING FORCE LARGER THAN THE COUNTRY WE’RE INVADING FOR GLORIOUS VICTORY, the other one actually led the country in a real war; the one was a fucking idiot who never spoke to his treasury secretary once in eight years, the other one actually discussed policy ideas with smart people and listened to people other than just his wife. I could go on and on. But to sum it up in terms most people can understand: FDR rules, Reagan drools.
ANYWAY, I just wanted to take this time to remind us how we’re ALL FUCKED. Or, you know, maybe we’re just a “nation of whiners“. Thank you, John McCain. It’s a good thing you’re in touch with the average American and the “fundamentals of our economy are strong”. I mean, it’s not like he only didn’t know the price of milk (apparently, Giuliani didn’t know it, but the original reference was to George H. W. Bush). Quite frankly, that’s forgivable. Fuck, I don’t even know the price of milk. He COULDN’T REMEMBER HOW MANY HOUSES HE OWNS. Okay, first of all, that’s the sign of, oh, I don’t know–SOMETHING BAD.
“Oh, hm, I WONDER WHERE I PUT THOSE NUCLEAR LAUNCH CODES. You know, I CAN JUST NEVER FIND ANYTHING THESE DAYS.”
Um, what was I talking about again?
Oh right. ANYWAY, I just think that we can all get together and thank the Republican Party for privatizing the living shit out of our economy so that it can go down the tubes while the difference between the richest and the poorest gets even bigger and bigger. This is fucking awesome.
Don’t believe me? Ask your history teacher.
