Since Ron Reagan, son of former President Ronald Reagan, would probably be the first to admit his political view are widely divergent from his father's it seems strange that he would put words in the Gipper's mouth about current events.

However, the younger Reagan spoke for his father on HLN's Jan. 26 "The Joy Behar Show." Host Joy Behar asked Reagan what his father would have thought about the modern tea party movement.

"What would your father say about these tea partiers Ron, do you think?" Behar asked

That Gay Transvestite Ballarina Wantabe is a Disgrace to the Reagan Family Name! If Ronald was alive today, he would disown the Anti-American, Communist, Media-Buttboy Gay Nitwit!

I think President Reagan would be far, far more pleased with the tea parties than with the son who bears his name.

Ronald Reagan would be unamused at how poorly his son turned out.

Modern liberals are liars. Why waste time giving any consideration to the words that gush forth from their mouths?

LOL. According to sonny boy, Ronald Reagan “would have” supported just about everything sonny boy likes. Right? Right?

Wrong.

Ron Reagan Jr. was a fullscale pain in the ass to his father while the President was trying to run the country. He repeatedly whined about having SS detail, fussed about his ballet career, complained about various family issues, generally made a juvenile headache out of himself.

His father was actually quite gracious under the circumstances. To ask this creepy ingrate to speak for the President is an obscene act. But then we are talking joyce behar aren't we.

“Gee, and what would Michael Reagan think? Oh, that’s right, Joy didn’t have him on did she?”

Ron should run a little experiment. He should go on the show and speak favorably of the tea parties as well as his father’s views/policies. He will see how low it takes them to bounce him out on his butt AND he will hear what they really think of him.

What, first there is a story about Ellie Light-in-the-Loafers, and now, one about Non-Reagan.
