Another good thing about Ronald Reagan

He fathered Ron Reagan, Jr.

I'm a big fan of the guy. Look at the evidence:

- He was a ballet dancer, a most difficult and sensitive art form
- Ballet but not gay: he's married, to a psychologist
- He is an extremely pleasant and likeable host
- He is an atheist
- He could do whatever he wants... and so he does the dog shows for Animal Planet
- And yet admits the "Best in Show" connection with good humor
- He is non-partisan and is a harsh critic of the W administration "My father crapped bigger ones than George Bush."

Whatever you feel about Ron and Nancy, that they turned out Ron Jr. is a good mark on both their names IMO.

I remember his talk show in the late 80s.

I also remember when Patti Davis posed nude in Playboy.

That Reagan looks good in comparison to George Jr. is just further evidence of how bad things have become on the political scene.

IIRC, he, his lifestyle and attitudes caused them considerable embarrassment and consternation.

I believe that the Reagans had lots of issues with their offspring...just like other American parents.

Right Els, kids rebel against there parents by trying to be the opposite of them. Ron Jr tries to be good, therefore....... :p
