Too many faults, Jonathan. And he was as tough as the best medical science
available to keep him going.
Reagan fought against a woman's right to choose, most environmental bills,
women's equal pay act and so on.
Sure, the old ******* is dead, but that doesn't skew my memory one bit. When
Bush dies I won't soften on that monster either.

Few actually knew that he fought incipient Alzheimer's through most, if not
all, of his two administrations. Considering that, he was a lot tougher
than he's been heretofore credited.

As to his faults, show me a man who doesn't have them. Oh, wait, I think
Bubbles believes himself free of them.

Sorry, racists should not be presidents. This would also exclude you.

If this is true, then Reagan committed a crime against the country. His oath of
office demands than in the case of any mental impairment, that he forfiet his
command. If his people "protected him" and played puppeteer, then they also
committed crimes against the USA.
Look it up.

Hmmm, seems the urban legends have started already, either that or
your politicians are sillier than they look.

And who's aren't? Oh, I'm so sorry--I forgot that Australia is nigh well
perfect.

A Commander in Chief who's likely to forget what he's there for seems
just a tad incongruent...

Um, this seems to be a bit of an absurdity, doncha think? Does any CIC ever
recall why he was voted into office, and to whom he is accoutable (voters)?
Doubtful.

then again GWB is ther to boost his
retirement fund eh?

His retirement fund was well-established before he ran for office. Why he's
there is anyone's guess, since he ain't too adept at vocalizing anything.

I wouldn't expect you to know jack **** about Alzheimer's, Bubbles--or about
anything, for that matter, come to think of it--so I'll fill you in. It's a
progressive disease, generally beginning well before a person enters his
sixth decade (that would be his fifties, Bubbles, since I've no doubt you
couldn't do the math). Symptoms may appear immediately or be quite delayed.
Early Sx include simple forgetfulness, a mild inability to maintain mental
focus, and periodic mood swings. Later Sx include what most folks believe
classic Alzheimer's to be: drastic mood alteration, severe memory loss, and
an inability to maintain a train of thought. Reagan had mild mood swings
and occasional forgetfulness during the latter part of his first 4 years.
During his second term he began to suffer more extensive memory problems.
His disease wasn't diagnosed until well into his second term of office. And
as most presidents use staff to function as their memories, it was not
deemed a problem for Reagan. But with half his brain tied behind his back
he was still a far better, more effective president than either of the
Bushes or Clinton. As for your complete lack of a sense decency or
compassion for a man plagued with such a debilitating illness late in his
life, you are unworthy to be his boot licker.

Me a racist? LOL!!!!!

How do you know I'm not African-American or Hispanic?

You make assumptions with no knowledge whatsoever, Bubbles. In other words,
you lack fundamental intelligence.

Max

He wasn't better than Clinton, but he was a decent pres. I didn't
like a lot of his social policies, but at least he wasn't a crook or
liar, and he wasn't stupid, even though he was portrayed that
way. He was physically and mentally tough. I met him when he
was governer.

Amazing that someone can write the above, let alone believe it. Then again
Horvath is still waiting for those WMDs to turn up!
