Slip of the tongue?

Do you really think so, given the meaning of the word and the context in which it was used?

Why don't you look up the word "reign" and see if it fits into the idiom "rain on your parade," before you go further into an etymological discussion? While I'm sure it's entertaining for most libertarians to watch you further embarrass yourself, I cringe at your unwitting and continued exposure of your ignorance, and want to help you stop digging the hole. Perhaps if you realize that in a free society, people still do good without the guiding hand of mommy & daddy, or nanny states, you'll be on the road to realizing that American government doesn't have to be big and powerful for America to be great.

Protecting the rights of even the least individual among us is basically the only excuse the government has for even existing. - Ronald Reagan
