"My father crapped bigger ones than George Bush," says the former
president's son, in a flame-throwing conversation about the war and the Bush
administration's efforts to lay claim to the Reagan legacy.

By David Talbot

April 14, 2003 "Salon.com" -- The Bush inner circle would like to think of
George W.'s presidency as more of an extension of Ronald Reagan's than of
his one-term father's. Reagan himself, who has long suffered from
Alzheimer's disease, is unable to comment on those who lay claim to his
political legacy. But his son, Ron Jr., is -- and he's not pleased with the
association.

"The Bush people have no right to speak for my father, particularly because
of the position he's in now," he said during a recent interview with Salon.
"Yes, some of the current policies are an extension of the '80s. But the
overall thrust of this administration is not my father's -- these people are
overly reaching, overly aggressive, overly secretive, and just plain
corrupt. I don't trust these people."

He may not share his father's middle name, but he can still correctly be
called junior.

Typical rightie response. If anyone's opinion doesn't agree with
yours, then it is invalid, huh? Typical.....

Wow, you were able to make that conclusion based on my one sentence?

I know that one sentence was more than you could comprehend in one sitting,
so let me break it down for you:

1. I never commented about the content of his *opinion*
2. I never said his opinion was invalid
3. I did wonder why his opinion matters to some

Understand now or do you want to make more generalizations?
