Default (OT) Reagan blasts Bush

http://www.informationclearinghouse....rticle6292.htm

extract

"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."
