Good joke I heard in class today

[JohnKleeb]

"The Reagan Admininstration was the first reality TV show."
I only wish I made that up.

1. I suppose in a way it was

[JohnKleeb]

2. Well you know

I was born right towards the end of it. God though, people defending Iran-Contra today in class really got me going what the fuck are people smokin.

3. The ACLU helped get North off the charges.

Another irony of the right. They hate the ACLU whether the ACLU is for North, Limbaugh etc.

Ronald Reagan was a guy who could tell you everything's great and get the majority to believe it even if stats showed he was lying. I never liked his acting until he became president.

4. Interesting

Ain't that ironic, yeah Ive heard that Bush I used Dukakis' proud membership of the ACLU against him in '88.

[DieboldMustDie]

7. The secret to acting is sincerity.

If you can fake that, you can fake anything. :evilgrin:

[FuzzySlippers]

5. 'Cept Reagan didn't know it.

He thought he was in a movie.

edit: punctuation

6. With the same Directors/Producers

whose pulling Bush's puppet strings.

8. Yep. Same ol' criminals.

I knew we were screwed when I saw the line-up of Dubya's cabinet and advisors in 2000--his daddy & Reagan's old criminal buddies, many of them anyway.
