My father’s brithday. How fitting. The two couldn’t have been more opposite in word and deed. One, a screaming liberal hypocrite who tried very hard to teach me all about the Democrats struggles for the poor working man, and another who made his way in the world by espousing and practicing, as best he could, conservative values.
I would say I wished to be RR’s own son, but we all know that doesn’t mean anything. Maybe I needed to witness liberal hypocracy first hand to see how deranged it truly is, so that I wouldn’t consider it for myself. After all, Reagan’s own namesake is such a waste of human skin. I’ll just say that the big man is missed. Having met him, in person, is one of the great memories of my life.
For my own father, I will wish him a happy brithday, and let him know that there’s still time to read a book and learn something.
God forgive me.
I remember the morning after the 1980 election. ABC news was on and My father arguing with my mother that Carter won. I was little and I could read the frigging map - I know who won. Thank God I take after Mom when it comes to politics.
Actually, I was exponentially sadder when RR died than when my father did. I do wonder if he (my father) was still around if he would like what his Democratic party has become.
You are privileged to have met the man. And I agree 1,000% with you - his kids with Nancy suck. I don't like her either, to be honest - she was against Ollie North when he ran for the US Senate. Those 2 kids though, just suck.
