In the typical whirlwind of legislation comes H.R. 5457, a nice breeze of a bill was introduced this week by Rep. Jody Hice. The Georgia Republican simply proposes that Gravelly Point Park — located on the Potomac River at the foot of the main runway at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport — be renamed Nancy Reagan Memorial Park. It is a petite, scenic and unique park. Aircraft thunder directly overhead, families picnic, and the grand marble monuments gleam across the river.
“Like her husband, Mrs. Reagan invested in people and worked diligently to strengthen our communities and advance the American dream for our citizens. She championed veterans, especially our heroes who were returning home after wartime, and spearheaded the Just Say No campaign to combat the use of recreational drugs,” notes Mr. Hice. “Mrs. Reagan was the embodiment of grace, elegance, and tenacity and put duty, honor, and country above all.”

With today’s culture and populace, that park will be vandalized daily.
This is wrong for several reasons that I will not spell out because I don’t want to get flamed.
Nowadays, “conservatives” are real good at worshipping idols, while trashing conservatism.
Nice tribute for Mrs. Reagan, but Jody, when will you do ANYTHING for your constituents in Georgia?
