The Madison-based Freedom From Religion Foundation is sponsoring a commercial featuring Ron Reagan on Comedy Central Thursday night, where he concludes with: “Ron Reagan. Lifelong atheist. Not afraid of burning in hell.”
The son of President Ronald Reagan has long been an outspoken atheist and is an honorary officer of FFRF.
The ad will air during The Daily Show, which begins at 10 p.m., and again during the Colbert Report, which airs at 10:30 p.m. It will also appear during the reruns two hours later, for a total of four showings.
Annie Laurie Gaylor, co-president of FFRF, said that Reagan “had done an ad for us for Air America Radio when that was on. I had in mind we could recreate this as a visual for several years and we finally made it happen.”
Here’s the entire text of the 30-second spot: “Hi, I’m Ron Reagan, an unabashed atheist, and I’m alarmed by the intrusions of religion into our secular government. That’s why I’m asking you to support the Freedom From Religion Foundation, the nation’s largest and most effective association of atheists and agnostics, working to keep state and church separate, just like our Founding Fathers intended. Please support the Freedom From Religion Foundation. Ron Reagan. Lifelong atheist. Not afraid of burning in hell.”
Says you twinkle toes.
Liberals know a lot. But the majority of what they know is dead wrong.
Li’l Ronnie is proof positive that genetics plays only a small role in the destiny of our lives. To think he is the biological offspring of a true American man like Ronald Reagan.... it’s like imagining Boy George is somehow George Washington Jr.
Didn’t his sister write a piece that she was surprised when she lost her health care when Obamacare came on the scene. We can only hope that he gets directly affected by Obama’s policies.
A leftist appearing on MSNBC calling others ignorant...
Now there’s irony for you.
FU, Ron fag.
Apple fell….into a different county's orchard.
I go out amongst the liberals every weekend, and sometimes during the week. Beyond their daily talking points, they know nothing. Ask them several questions about critical, relevant events outside their daily talking points, and their ignorance about everything is painfully obvious.
Wasn’t he reporting on poodles before MSLSD hired him?
I think safe to say every great man have embarrassment for a child
Even President Reagan couldn’t escape that fact
Whew...must be hard being Ron Reagan.
He’s not only a tutu-wearing freak, he’s ugly as a fried kidney.
Ron Reagan is a liberal jackass..must have become a lib to spite his father..yeah I remember that article that Patti Davis wrote, but she is still a flaming lib
Washington Post Staff writer Manuel Roig-Franzia made sure to highlight in the fifth paragraph, "The son, now 52, can't muster enthusiasm for present-day Reagan worship, either. He disdains the communal gushing and deifying, 'the fetishistic veneration,' while nurturing a private, though complicated, affection."

Ron Reagan
I’m still asking myself the question,” he says, “about what I want to be when I grow up.”
Roig Franzia did include critics of Ron Reagan’s assertion that his father displayed symptoms of Alzheimer’s while President: “Reaganites and Reagan watchers are reacting with varying levels of disbelief and rage. Edmund Morris, the biographer, says in an interview that he doubts the claim in part because Reagan’s daily diaries are as “clearly expressed and well-written” at the end of his presidency as at the beginning.”
However, Michael Reagan might not want to hold his breath waiting for his 2850 word, 48 paragraph profile.
Over a span of five days and three programs, ABC touted Ron Reagan’s book for 24 minutes.
