Kay sez, "Stupid Stupids think Ronald Reagan is greatest American" Polled americans think he is the best! around! no one's ever gonna keep him down!
He edged out Abraham Lincoln, who abolished slavery, and civil rights leader Martin Luther King.
maybe i will stay here. don't tell mrbun yet.
But Iran-Contra had NOTHING to do with sex...
therefore it's not so bad, right?
right?
Two, four, six, eight! Regan's reign was really great!
...
"Great," as in "big" or "immense"; we meant it in a pejorative sense!
jesus fucking christ almighty. freeing the slaves wasn't a big deal or anything, but trickle down economics... Can you say winner!?
I'm not really surprised Reagan won. People actually remember when he was alive. Granted, MLK Jr. was living last century too, but Reagan was still alive much more recently. I think it has more to do with people voting for the guy they actually remember walking around and breathing. The same cannot be said for Lincoln or Washington or Franklin. Old dead guys just don't seem relevant compared to people that were around in their lifetimes.
Something else that bothered me was that lack of Thomas Jefferson, how fucking important was the Louisiana Purchase?
Sounds like the product of the american public schools to me. I'm gonna tell everyone I'm moving to canada but secretly I'll stay here because it's warmer and better.

It was more disturbing to me that someone like Oprah Winfrey was rated so high. She was in the 9th spot. wtf?
