This is just plain rude and uncivil.
I sure hope you feel better on your deathbed.
(Edit: read rcareaga post - I guess I should have been angry at him. Then again, to be angry at someone responding to Norm is a bit hard. Thus the shades of gray overtake us)

No gray.
It was uncivil. Period.
Not warranted. At all.
"Riding off into the sunset" is hollywood slang for kicking the bucket...I guess its just not highbrow enough to register with some...deciding on the more terse description.

The RC's reply was to Norm
RC is normally exquisitely civil. But something about Norm just makes him see red.

Among other things, it's being devoured by the lack of
civility.
And, reminding someone that his country was destroyed is just more of the same. Not that I give a damn - it was not _my_ country.

Well...since Reagan was a Republican..
...and not a true Goldwater Republican (due to an out of control legislature and an understanding the the country actually does have a judeo-christian ethic)...Ross will have nothing nice to say in this thread.
Reagan's impact on this country cannot be understated. Even current Democrats recognize this.
Still, I don't expect alot of recognition of these facts from this crowd. Too busy trying to invent conspiricies.

Worse than Reagan, tied with Bush 1
And yes, he also was a master illusionist. America at present has no effective government because the People are too stupid, lazy, and venal to give a shit about their history. All government, Dem and Repo, is cast in the illusionist mold - thanks to Reagan and his damnable ilk.

We do?
Funny, that. I thought we elected a Labour government in 1997 (sheesh, only 7 years ago) which has maintained a decent economic record, a reasonable social justice record, and which has an irrational love of speed cameras.
You KEEP ELECTING fuckwits term in, term out; in fact, I'd go so far to say you've not had a president worthy of the name since Kennedy.

I thought we elected a Labour government in 1997 (sheesh, only 7 years ago) which has maintained a decent economic record, a reasonable social justice record, and which has an irrational love of speed cameras. Damn the prohibition on political LRPDs. This one trancends politics, and deserves its rightful place...
