The joke is waiting for a punchline. |

Ron Reagan Jr., on MSNBC Tuesday night, sure dispelled the notion of anyone who assumed that he is any kind of conservative of friend of a Republican President. Just past 11pm EST, Reagan, whose father suffers from Alzheimer’s disease, suggested that President George W. Bush has “dementia.” Reagan, whom MSNBC brought aboard to stand in front of a national map in order to discuss upcoming primaries, commented about how David Kay concluded that “Iraq never had weapons of mass destruction.” Reagan then sarcastically asked: “What does George W. Bush say? ‘Well, I still think they had them.’ That’s not just spin. That’s dementia, you know.”
Reagan, a veteran of Fox News in its pre-FNC days, stood in front of the map, with a fire going in a fire place behind him, and commented a couple of times an hour about where the Democratic candidates may next battle it out. Just past 11pm EST, he opined on another topic: “You were talking about who’s the best person to beat Bush. And one thing that you might want to consider is that politics is a contact sport. And if you ask any NFL player, they’ll tell you it takes weeks to get used to the contact. So all these guys are out there, and they’re getting tough. They’re taking shots, and they’re getting back up again. George W. Bush, on the other hand, is sitting in the Oval Office and he’s getting soft. Now, what happens when you go in the Oval Office is you start living in a bubble, you know, you don’t read the paper anymore, you just listen to who you want to listen to. And we’re seeing that now. David Kay, for instance, comes out with a report and says Iraq never had weapons of mass destruction. What does George W. Bush say? ‘Well, I still think they had them.’ That’s not just spin. That’s dementia, you know. So I don’t get this. I’m a little angry about this. Forgive me. It looks like my pants are on fire, by the way, I’m so angry here, but it’s not true. It’s just an optical illusion for those of you who might be concerned or perhaps hopeful.”
Me too!
So sad. Seeking the approval of the very people who used to make so much fun of him. Kinda textbook.
You see in others, what you most need to look at in yourself.
Did he ever vote for his dad?
Apparantly, Reagan Version 2.0 never learned from his father how to defeat his opponents with charm.
He also used his father's funeral to trash President Bush which was SHAMEFUL. He must think someone really cares what he thinks about anything. If MSNBC hasn't figured out why they can't get more viewers maybe they should look at their "hired help".
BTW, Ron, the American people cared about your father's ideas, not yours, in case you have that confused.
I remember Ron Jr Basically saying that George W blamed the war on God, a while ago, based on that he said he 'consulted a higher power' now he's not just an expert on Religion *snort* but a political anylyst too.
This guy is a sad apple. MSNBC isn't doing itself any favors.

I just really don't get why this nut gets to be on TV. Seriously, what are his qualification to comment on this stuff, especially when it's this kind of crap he spews all the time, all the while claiming to be independent. I can't tell you how many times I've started to e-mail MSNBC on this bozo. I just can't hardly stomache him.
Skipper...if I were you, I'd worry less about whether Dubya is suffering dementia than whether you might be. Unfortunately, I understand it does run in your dad's family.
Speaking of your dad, Skipper, if you weren't his only son by birth, nobody would care who you were or what you said. You and Dubya might be fellow members of the Lucky Sperm Club, but Dubya has shown evidence of being more than just that. Have you?
Ron Reagan is messing up my living room. MSNBC needs to send him flying .... (ta ta) and tu tu little man!
I can see it now-McCain: I'm actually pretty sure God may have chosen me.... Left: He claims to be a prophet of the Lord High Ba'al Stone him immediately!!!
