WHAT?! I hadn't heard that. I agree, that is nonsense.
I didn't say Ron's speech was worth scrutiny, though. Just that I heard it and knew what he was saying.
You are right about Ron. I will add he hates W with a passion only rivalled by Mark Morford. It was undoubtedly a catty slam at our current president. Notice no attempts at political points were made by anyone other than a flaming lib trying to have his Wellstone moment, albeit in a slightly more subtle way. The libs in general, knowing how beloved Reagan still is, have been turning the trick of co-opting him and trying to contrast President Bush unfavorably. The truth is they hated Reagan with the same venom and for the same reasons when he was politically viable and able to crush them.
