D-white Don't worry about those who disliked President Reagan, they've moved on. I mean, why would anyone fret over a harmless, addle-brained old coot who can't even remember how to tie his shoes? Actually, it's enough to make one grow misty, thinking of the shrunken dotard sitting hour upon hour in his soiled diapers, his powder blue jumpsuit stained wet by his filth. Oh, I suppose there are moments when he's lucid enough to bleat out to Mommy, "Jane, where's that funny little chimp got to?", but is that really enough? Still, it must be of some comfort to all who care about the dear mooncalf that his wits disappeared so early on. Imagine if he were of sound enough mind to understand the rape charge leveled at him by Selene Walters -- just as well, then, that he has no memory left to dredge up. No, when it comes to Ronald Wilson Reagan, I think all of America takes a tip from Ron's daughter, Mo. In moments of sweet pillow talk, Mo whispers to her girlfriend: "Bring on that L-U-V!" So that's everyone's duty when it comes to our beloved ex-president -- even though he's so incoherent he can't feed himself and must be led around on a leash -- America, bring on that L-U-V! ian

Hey Dwight, I missed this one. Perhaps you've missed the recent news on Guatemala, one of Eliot Abram's little triumphs of "democracy", of the Reaganaut sort, where you kill all the opposition before elections. When a Guatemalan truth commission implicated the United States in February in the creation of a killing machine that ravaged entire Mayan villages in the 1980s, it raised questions that are not likely to go away soon -- certainly not by the time President Clinton visits Guatemala this week: How could a country that calls itself a beacon of democracy link its military and intelligence agencies so intimately to Guatemala's darkest, most reactionary forces? What was the nature of that relationship over three decades? What were U.S. officials thinking as 200,000 people were killed? nytimes.com I know, not the kind of question good Christians like yourself can be bothered with. It's all Clinton fault anyway, like contra drug running through Mena, or the Chinese stealing U.S. nuclear secrets on Reagan's watch, right?
