If you feel that talking about anything, except President Reagan is disrespectful, what are you doing on this thread?

Clearly I don't think talking about "anything but President Reagan" is disrespectful. If I did, I would've made such a comment on the other threads to that end. What I find disrespectful to Ronald Reagan is an unprovoked attempt to sow rancor against a fellow Republican which clearly violates Reagan's "11th Commandment" while his body is still being prepared for burial. It is unseemly to pick political scabs at this time.

I don't think that discussing other things is in any way disrespectful of President Reagan.

See above.

There are still plenty of posts and threads honoring him, and his legacy. A truly great statesman.

His legacy a a truly great statesman manifested itself in the form of not picking at political scabs.

Arnold found Reagan an inspiration and considered Reagan his hero.

As did Tom McClintock, I'm sure.

With that, I've had my say.

I think Benjamin Franklin would've been very proud of both Arnold and Tom, don't you?

Tom for writing things worth reading &
Arnold for doing things worth the writing.

Wasn't it Ronald Reagan who coined the Eleventh Commandment: "Thou shalt not speak ill of a fellow Republican"?
