    Ron Reagan’s advertisement for the Freedom From Religion Foundation was the clear winner of the CNN/Des Moines Register Democratic presidential primary debate, according to several Twitter users. Tuesday night's event was criticized for being “low energy,” but one commercial that reappeared several times kept viewers entertained. The Freedom From Religion Foundation ran an advertisement featuring Reagan, who is the son of President Ronald Reagan, proudly declaring that he’s not afraid of “burning in hell.” “Hi, I’m Ron Reagan, an unabashed atheist, and I’m alarmed by the intrusions of religion into our secular government,” Reagan says in the opening of the...
  • Atheists Call for Establishing Atheism as the National Religion

    During the Democrat debate this past week, the Freedom from Religion Foundation (FFRF) ran an ad where Ron Reagan said he is a lifelong atheist and isn't afraid of burning in Hell. He's saying he objects to the over 84% of Americans who are religious injecting their beliefs into government policies. Essentially, he's calling for the institution of his faith-based belief system, atheism, as a national religion in direct contradiction to the First Amendment.

    Buckle Up!Late Tuesday, the President’s State of the Union address and Democratic response were completed around 11:00 p.m. Eastern, but MSNBC kept it going live until 2:00 a.m. Eastern on Wednesday. While it’s doubtful you stayed up to watch, you missed some mind-numbingly stupid quotes. Whether it’s suggesting Trump has committed treason or ghoulishly laughing about people fearing MS-13 gang violence, MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, Joy Reid, and Ron Reagan succeeded in stooping to the lowest of lows. So, here they are (presented in chronological order): 1. Matthews Questions Trump Honoring Families of MS-13 Victims

    Continuing the liberal media’s insistence that they can diagnose someone as mentally or physically ill, Monday’s Deadline: White House on MSNBC featured detestable liberal Republicans Nicolle Wallace and David Jolly asserting that Ronald Reagan had Alzheimer’s while president to the point that he may have been unfit for office.  Reagan came up during a segment about the likelihood that there’s something wrong mentally or physically wrong with President Trump (which the show insinuated was a yes).  Disgusting MSNBC Republicans: Reagan Definitely Had Alzheimer’s While President   Wallace used the late Michael Deaver (and YouTube videos) as her main sources for claims Reagan having...
  • Ron Reagan: ‘There’s No Such Thing as Partial-Birth Abortion’

    Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein
    Message to Ron Reagan: when it comes to this barbaric procedure, it’s not about the nomenclature . . . On this evening’s Hardball, Ron Reagan claimed that “there’s no such thing as partial-birth abortion. Doesn’t exist.” Reagan criticized third-debate moderator Chris Wallace for having used the term. Would Reagan’s exquisite sensitivities be assuaged if Wallace had used the technical term: intact dilation and extraction? The bottom line is the same: Hillary Clinton supports it and Donald Trump opposes it. View the video here.
  • Bill Maher on Ahmed the Clock Boy: 'He Did Not Invent Anything'

    NewsBusters ^ | September 26, 2015 | P.J. Gladnick
    Count Bill Maher as among those who don't buy into the fable promulgated by much of the mainstream media about young Ahmed Mohamed building the clock that he brought to school. Maher expressed his extreme skepticism about the fairy tale last night on HBO's Real Time. One huge takeaway from the show is the utter cluelessness of guest Ron Reagan. I won't ruin the surprise by revealing what Reagan said in advance but I ask you to imagine him as a TSA agent checking baggage at the airport after viewing the video below.

    On Friday's Hardball, Chris Matthews and Howard Dean slammed the supposedly "lunatic" Republican Party for opposing President Obama's $3.7 billion request to deal with the ongoing crisis at the U.S-Mexico border. Dean likened the political stalemate over this issue and in general in Washington to McCarthyism in the 1950s: "It reminds me of the 'who lost China' debate...where one side is frothing at the mouth and finding communists under every bed; and the other side – including some reasonable Republicans...actually trying to run the country." Matthews endorsed the former Vermont governor's take, and targeted fiscal conservatives/the Tea Party as somehow...

    If Ron Reagan’s book tour to pitch My Father At 100 has taught him one thing, it’s that talk radio probably isn’t his calling, despite being a former host on lefty Air America. “I’m not a yeller. There’s a lot of that going on,” he says, citing an interview with WFLA in Tampa on a show hosted by Jack Harris and Tedd Webb (which also features Whispers on Mondays). “Within one minute of getting me on the air,” recalls Reagan “Tedd had called me an a===ole, threatened to kick my a==, and told me that he, no, hadn’t bought my...

    In a new book he [Ron Reagan] has speculated (on slender evidence) that Reagan had symptoms of Alzheimer’s as early as 1981. I’m not saying that this isn’t a legitimate topic of discussion for historians. But to do this to mark the centenary of the most kind and gentlemanly president of the 20th century – your own father? His old enemies lapped it up, Ron. Hope you’re proud of yourself.

    LOS ANGELES (AP) — Sarah Palin is honoring one Reagan and offending another with the same speech. The former Alaska governor is scheduled to speak in Santa Barbara, Calif., on Friday at a tribute to former President Ronald Reagan — just one of the celebrations marking the centennial of the 40th president's birth on Feb. 6. But his son, Ron Reagan, tells The Associated Press he doesn't see anything in common between his dad and the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate, who was invited to speak by the event's sponsor, the conservative Young America's Foundation. "Sarah Palin is a soap...

    Late former President Ronald Reagan's name blazed across the marquee at San Juan Capistrano's Regency Theatre on Thursday night for the world premiere of "Ronald Reagan: An American Journey." San Juan resident Robert Kline, a former executive vice president at Fox Studios and producer of "Firing Line" with William F. Buckley Jr., directed the documentary film, which he began in 2008 after the debut of his movie "The Kennedys: America's Emerald Kings." Kline said it was natural to continue with Reagan, as he feels Presidents John F. Kennedy and Reagan were among America's greatest communicators. "Reagan was unique because he...

    When Ron Reagan Jr. called into WFLA-AM 970's top-rated AM Tampa Bay show Wednesday to discuss the book he wrote about his dad, My Father at 100: A Memoir, co-host Tedd Webb couldn't resist saying what was on his mind. So he called the youngest son of America's 40th president an "a--hole" in mid interview. "This has nothing to do with political discourse … it's about family," Webb, 61, told the St. Petersburg Times. A staunch conservative, he said it was the first time he ever used such a profanity on air in a radio career stretching back to the...

    Reagan’s doctors and Alzheimer’s specialists have been debunking this myth for years, but no matter how many times they try to explain that occasional memory lapses in an elderly person do not an Alzheimer’s diagnosis make, the narrative rolls on. And it’ll keep rolling, thanks to Ron Jr and the explosive never-before-revealed details in his new book which, per Paul Bedard of U.S. News, … seem not to add up. Besides playing amateur doctor, Ron Reagan reveals, if true, brain surgery on his dad never before reported. He accurately reports that Reagan, after leaving the presidency, was bucked from a...

Ron Reagan mocked Sarah Palin throughout the segment, and eventually Geller took him down several pegs. Geller told Reagan, "Your father would love her."

She also said Ron Reagan Jr.  has "nothing in common with his father." Ron Reagan Jr. has spent the last 30 years taking the opposite view on...
