Nixon tapes confirm: Reagan is 'Strange'

[Imran Siddiqui]

That's not true, after all he was unpleasant to the far left, and pleasant to the Democratic leadership .

Pleasant to the Democratic leadership??

[Imran Siddiqui]

Yep... Tip O'Neal had a very pleasant relationship with the President.

[MrFun]

So if some Democratic leaders licked Reagan's shoes, does that mean that all Democratic leaders did??

[Imran Siddiqui]

Tip O'Neal licking anyone's shoes!



Quite telling as well that having a pleasant relationship with a political opponent meant licking their shoes. Since you have a pleasant relationship with me, does that mean you are licking my shoes (please confine your licking to that )?

[MrFun]

Ok -- next time you accuse me of being a shoe licker, I will take you to court for slander.

[Drake Tungsten]

It ain't slander if it's true.

[KrazyHorse]

Nixon called Trudeau "That clever French bastard" on the tapes and, if I recall correctly, a "son of a *****" in public while president.

[St Leo]

I'm with Nixon on this.

Seriously...MrFun, I suggest you read up on O'Neil. Shoe-licker he certainly wasn't. I'd say more of a ****-kicker. Certainly one of the most influential Speakers of the House in modern times. Next to him, Gingrinch really did look like a petty, malicious little toad.

As for Nixon's quotes on Reagan:

Pot...kettle...black!

Now a good deal of the lefties' heads will explode because they can't decide which one of the two they hate more.

Actually we're all chortling unmercifully because 2 of the right's heroes are at odds. If anyone's heads are exploding it's rightwingers.

Watching Mr. Fun deal with anything regarding Reagan is...strange.

I really don't know whether to laugh or cry.

We all have different opinions -- for instance, some people admire Saddam Huissein, and others don't.

...see what I mean?

You're normally a very sensible person, I just don't understand the utter hostility you display whenever Reagan is mentioned. Nobody, and I mean nobody on this board goes to the extents you do on the subject.
