PRESIDENT REAGAN'S BEST ONE-LINER
(Excerpt) Read more at youtube.com ...
LOL! He was a GREAT President.
At one point a scruffy kid ran alongside his car screaming 'I am the future'.
Reagan responded with a quickly scrawled message on his note pad 'I'm selling my bonds'.
Yes he was and even if you are democrat that would make you laugh. Reagan was a great communicator.
One-liner as in joke, or just one-liner?
“Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!” sent chills down the spines of leftists all over the world.
LOL! You got to love it! That’s great!
What was it? I can’t watch Youtube at work.
Rather asked, “You blame Congress for the state of the economy, but is any of the blame yours?” He responded, “Yes, because for many years I was a Democrat!”
Reporter Sam Donaldson, “Mr. President in talking about the continuing recession tonight you have blamed the mistakes in the past and you blame the congress. Does any of the blame belong to you?”
President Ronald Reagan, “Yes because for many years I was a Democrat.”
Just a minor point...it was Sam Donaldson on the tape.
That was Sam Donaldson asking the question, not Rather. Donaldson is of the same ilk as Rather so the skewer applied by Reagan was right on target.
"I've noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born."
LOL! Yeah that is another good one!
It showed his humorous side.
Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall! one liner was a historical moment that changed the world.
He knew how to use one liners for different occasions.
Absolutely. Those funny one-liners were proof Reagan was brilliant on his feet. Notice most of them were not only funny they were biting.
“There you go again”
