Drudge: Michael Reagan slams Ron Reagan
Just a new blurb on the front page of drudge, no other source yet so I didn't wanna post it on LBN. This could get interesting, some sort of public Reagan feud...

"Dueling Reagans: Michael Reagan slams brother Ron, says he's 'being used' by the Dem Party... /// Michael charges brother Ron did not attend USS Ronald Reagan homecoming because he is a 'liberal' who does not believe in it and because it is 'weapon of mass destruction', says Nancy approves of Ron's speech at the Dem convention because 'he's her favorite'... Developing... "

1. Didn't Michael Reagan write a book in the 1980s
which essentially trashed his father and Nancy for not giving a damn about him as a young man?

Blood may be thicker than water, but money's thicker than both.

2. Awwww....Poooor Michael...
I never got the attention from my father that I deserved, and eventhough I would like to pretend Nancy is my mother, I was actually adopted by Jane Wyman. :cry:

Now everyone repeat after me, "Michael Who?" :smoke:

13. Poor Michael....Daddy left him & Mommy and started another family who
...he spent more time with than with him....Poor Michael - Adopted and then never really had the attention that his Adopted Daddy's own children....so he goes and "adopts" his Dad's politics in hopes of winning approval from him and low and behold, Daddy still preferred the son bearing his Dad's name even though his politics were so different....

Michael should be talking to a psychologist, not the press....

3. Michael Reagan should shove it...
..."he's her favorite"

Maybe that's because he's a sensible, thoughtful man, and not a RW shill trying to capitalize on his last name to curry favor with a party far different than the one his father led.

6. I saw it earlier....Hannity was interviewing Michael
it was pretty bad. Then Hannity asked Michael about what Ron would think of his statement.

I thought the whole exchange was pretty sick, total repug tactics.

little, immature thugs.

That's what these RWers are. This is standard behavior on Fox though -- catch O'Reilly sometimes. He acts the same way. Actually on second though, don't catch O'Reilly. You'll want to lodge something in your TV screen.

21. I watched Michael Moore on O'Leilly last night
I thought he handled himself well. O'Leilly was a schmuck as always. I don't know how people watch that show on a regular basis.

8. This is like the flip flop issues
There are so many repugs that I have met that do not want bush as president any longer.

When a decent AMOUNT of your own party is against you - well....2 words

YOUR FUCKED!
BUSH IS HISTORY AND I CANT WAIT TILL I SEE HIS SMIRKING ASS WHEN HE LOSES!
OK enough caps. Just fired up!

As for Ron, good fucking on him! If he believes in something he should take a stand. So should every other person out there that bitches about the government but wont go out and vote.....grrrr

9. Michael's mother is Jane Wyman NOT Nancy. Good for Nancy for loving her
son. but it's not nancy's job to love or do anything for michael. michael's mother is still alive. if he has issues with his mother, take it up with jane wyman.

what an asshole.

10. Classic case of sibling rivalry......
...Ron Jr is very talented, handsome, creative, deep thinking, visionary and caring human being, in other-words a natural democrat. Micheal is mediocre in looks, of limited talent, exploitative, unimaginative, shallow, self-absorbed, warlike, exudes emotional hate and jealousy, bigoted, in other words , the perfect Chromagnum neo-conservative, and I might add a very dangerous individual. Of the two, which one do you think mother Nancy would love more?

11. Nancy is not Michael's mother
his mother is reagan's first wife, jane wyman who is still alive. that's why he sounds stupid crying about this.

14. I see you don't know much about the Raygun family history..
First of all Micheal is not gentically Raygun in anyway. He was adopted in the first marriage between Ron Raygun and Jane Wyman who happens to be alive this very day. Ronald began ignoring Michael after his marriage to Nancy, and Michael was never really welcome in their lives after the second marriage....

15. it was worse than that....
"Why aren't you by your mothers side, when your Dad is honored with a warship."

"You know its hard for her on those trips, he should be there for those events."

Those are not the exact quotes...but we are talking Hannity & Michael Reagan....

much of the same bs.

20. You know what? Calling Matt Drudge a "journalist" is like...
...calling diarrhea "chocolate mousse."

22. The Reagan son being used is not Ron, Its Michael, and he is being
used by the right wing. They would love to use Nancy too, but she isn't playing.
