Liberal Ron Jr., emphatically stating that Romney will get the GOP nomination. This is a situation where the apple fell very far from the tree, I guess Ron Jr. doesn't remember where in 80 Bush Sr. had the nomination all but wrapped up and believed Time magazine in September 1980 that the 80 election was very close.

In a new interview with the BBC, Ron Reagan, Jr., son of the late president, called his father "a fetish object for the far right." Expanding on his point, the younger Reagan calls President Ronald Reagan "sort of the rubber bustier of the far right." Reagan Jr.'s remarks came when the BBC's Matt Frei asked him, "Are you happy the way [Ronald Reagan] is remembered in this country, especially by the conservatives?" "Oh, I just think it's inevitable," Reagan Jr. responded. "Who else are they going to remember that way? Richard Nixon? I don't think so. Warren Harding? Maybe. But...

Ron Reagan, Jr. is on GMA right now. He is the oddest, most defensive guy. He acts like he's been caught doing something really wrong (which I believe he has by disparaging his father) and is hugely uncomfortable being interviewed. He's definitely in it for the money as I say. He claims he called Nancy the night before and asked her what he should tell them if they ask what she thinks and she said 'tell them I love it, made me cry, blah blah blah'...and I thought she could've gone on to say 'and I could finally get you...

Reagan Son Claims Dad Had Alzheimer's as President 2011 is a big year for Ronald Reagan fans, being the centennial of his February 6 birth in Tampico, Ill. But youngest son Ron Reagan is spoiling the good cheer with a new book that suggests the Gipper suffered from Alzheimer's disease while in the White House, a claim dismissed by Reagan's doctors and outside experts. "Had the diagnosis been made in, say, 1987, would he have stepped down?" Ron asks, regarding the disease confirmed in 1994. "I believe he would have," he writes in My Father At 100: A Memoir, due...

I remember the first time I saw Rachel Maddow on MSNBC’s Tucker Carlson show. As is my annoying (to the rest of my house full of normal people) habit, I was working on other things with the TV turned up, keeping up with political arguments, but not just vegging on the couch and devoting my full attention. “Can you turn that off?” I asked my wife who was walking past the blaring tube, “I can’t deal with Ron Reagan Junior’s smug act right now.” She looked at me quizzically and said, “Umm, I’m pretty sure that’s a woman…” As we...

First, phony documents were intended to sink President Bush's 2004 reelection. Then, phony quotations prevented Rush Limbaugh from purchasing an NFL team. Now, the Left seems to be preparing its next tall-tale transcript to smear conservative foreign policy expert Frank Gaffney. Today's Wonkette recounts last night's skirmish between Gaffney and Ron Reagan Jr. on MSNBC's Hardball, which I reported earlier today. The blog claims: Gaffney screams at Reagan, who’s like, “…” Then Reagan essentially tells Frank Gaffney that he and all his stupid arguments are red herrings, like red herrings in a barrel that you shoot easily. And then,...

Ron Reagan is the direct namesake of the man whom many on the right consider to be “The Greatest American Hero.” Much to their dismay he has spent his broadcasting career taking aim at the very politicians who have sought to attach themselves to his father’s (the late President Ronald Reagan) conservative legacy in order to justify everything from extreme corporate deregulation to the war in Iraq. For decades Ron Reagan has forged a path that embraces left wing ideals and touts science and progression over alleged antiquated religious rhetoric, a position that infuriates the Republican Party and warms liberals...

Former First Lady Nancy Reagan is not attending this week’s Republican convention but her son, Ron, is. Newsweek.com’s Tammy Haddad and her TamCam caught up with the son of the Republican icon. You can watch it HERE and hear Reagan describe his mother’s fondness for the current Democratic nominee. “John McCain and my mother have known each for years and years. Her parents, and Cindy McCain’s parents go way back in Phoenix, Arizona. She’s grateful to John McCain for standing with her on the issue of stem cells and, of course, has officially endorsed him. She’s fine with John McCain,...

Ron Reagan, Jr., admitted Monday night that embryonic stem cell research will probably be absolutely useless in the quest to find a cure for Alzheimer's disease - throwing cold water on the big media's campaign to sell the controversial science as medically effective in battling the affliction that killed Reagan's father. "Alzheimer‘s is a disease, ironically, that probably won‘t be amenable to treatment through stem cell therapies," Reagan told MSBC's Chris Matthews. So why have he and his mother, former first lady Nancy Reagan, made stem cell research their cause celeb? "For people to suggest that [Nancy Reagan] shouldn’t support...

Has anyone watched the new show (12 PM and 5 PM EST) on MSNBC with 'ugh' RonRon Reagan Jr and Monica Crowley and have any comments about it ?

We received this in our e-mail pile without any indication of who wrote it. It was so good, we decided to post it anyway. To Michael Moore: Sit down and shut up. Your fifteen minutes are up. And do something about your hair. Looks can be deceiving, but not in your case... To Jimmy Carter: Big mistake to sit down next to Michael Moore at the convention. Spend more time with drywall and the glue gun. Or start lusting in your heart again. To Tom Daschle: If you lean too far to the left, voters will tend to lean right...

But enough about that. I had been wondering for days leading up to Reagan's speech yesterday just why the Dems seem to be hitting stem-cell research so hard as a campaign issue. Indeed, they've been doing so since Ronaldus Magnus' funeral, when the Ron Sr. - Ron Jr. rift first began to receive serious public attention. Well, the slam job that Ron Reagan Jr. did on those whose "theological views will harm the rest of us" put everything into place. Stem cell research is their Trojan horse for maintaining abortion through means of a back door. Let's face it, despite...

Who cares about real Parkinson's patients when there's a Brave New World to sell?RON REAGAN'S SPEECH at the Democratic convention last night was expected to urge expanded funding for stem cell research using so-called "spare" embryos--and to highlight these cells' potential for treating the Alzheimer's disease that took his father's life.He did neither. He didn't even mention Alzheimer's, perhaps because even strong supporters of embryonic stem cell research say it is unlikely to be of use for that disease. (Reagan himself admitted this on a July 12 segment of MSNBC's Hardball.) And he didn't talk about current debates on funding...

Ron Reagan Misguided on Embryonic Stem Cell Research, Cloning Chicago, Illinois - July 27, 2004 - Tonight, Ron Reagan, Jr. addressed the Democratic National Convention promoting research on stem cells taken from living human embryos. In his remarks, Reagan said, "We may be able to put an end to...suffering. We only need to try." He also described the way this research will work is by cloning human beings. President of The Center for Bioethics and Human Dignity John Kilner, Ph.D. responded, "History is littered with misguided attempts to relieve suffering by cutting ethical corners. All that Ron Reagan advocated can...

"We now know that he (Al Gore) would have won Florida," proclaimed Ronald Prescott Reagan, son of the late President Ronald Wilson Reagan. Ron made this incredible declaration during MSNBC"s Chris Matthews' show, as they reported about former Vice President Al Gore's speech at the Democratic National Convention. When asked by Matthews how does he know this, Ron remarked that there was a "consortium" of newspapers who counted the votes in Florida and determined that Gore would have won. Matthews incredibly confirmed this by saying Gore would have won the election if he requested a statewide vote recount in Florida....

BOSTON - "I was here when your father came here," a middle-aged beer-drinker told MSNBC correspondent and featured Democratic convention speaker Ron Reagan. "Your father was a good man - a great man," another patron declared. A different drinker offered: "A lot of politicians are trying to lay claim to the legacy of your father. But around here, that's not a good legacy to lay claim to." Whatever. The late President Ronald Reagan's 46-year-old son - these days the archenemy of another President's son - smiled and nodded agreeably. He long ago accommodated himself to the out-of-body weirdness of such...

I was flipping through the coverage of the jack@ss convention and came across Ronnie Reagan telling Chris Mathews that President Bush and the SCOTUS stole the election from Al Gore. The former ballerina, claimed that every single vote recount in Florida by the media resulted in Gore winning the popular vote in Florida and therfore the National Electorial College majority in 2000.

To say Michael Reagan is scolding his younger brother, Ron Reagan, as the latter prepares to address the Democratic National Convention next week would be an understatement. We'll let the transcript of a most revealing radio interview with the elder Mr. Reagan, broadcast this week on "Newsbeat" with Blanquita Cullum, speak for itself. Q: So tell me what's with your brother? Why is your brother, Ron, going over and speaking at the Democratic convention? He's an angry guy. A: Because he wasn't invited by Ralph Nader. Q: Oh yeah, very interesting. A: I mean that's a reality. I think he...
