This quote about exposes Repugs for ultra-revisionism

"FDR believed the federal government should spend your dimes. Ronald Reagan believed the people should spend their own dimes. I think it's clear that the dimes in your pocket should bear Ronald Reagan's image,"
-Rep Elton Gallegly of CA.

Remember, this is the mentallity of Repugs: Trust-busting is Socialism, beating your spouse is a God-given right, AIDS is God's will, Global-Warming means more...oceanfront property!
Repugs will stop at NOTHING until anything that is considered "moderate" today will be considered "looney left" in a decade from now.

1. Even Nancy doesn't think he should be on the dime.

I believe Ronnie was a dem in the 40's, I could be wrong, but it seems to me he switched parties.

3. FDR did NOT

believe any such thing! Jesus, just when I think I've heard it all from these fucking dumb-as-rock repukes, they come up with another unbelievable gem.

And Raygun was one of the worst fucking presidents we've ever had, his horrendous increase of the federal deficit alone should be enough to keep his damn face the hell off of our dimes.

4. you've missed their 'logic'

ALL democrats want to take all your/my money and SPEND i

FDR was a democrat

obviously, therefore, he wanted to take and spend all your/my dimes

This 'proof' is so clear, even the slowest person should be able to understand it.

Point #1 is their 'given.' They think this is 'just the way things are'

<sarcasm off>
