2. Do you have to sign up to read them?
I tried and they asked me for my life's history. No thanks to FOX.

4. Frankly, I'm trying to forget.
I suspect visiting FoxNews will not help.

Thanks, anyway.

5. Don't we get enough of this on the tube?
I turned on my TV the other night...no shit, the very first two words I heard coming out of the speaker were, "Ronald Reagan"...my tube hadn't even had time to warm up and I clicked it off before another word could get through.

8. Ronald Reagan is an icon of the GOP
Although I didn't agree with Reagan, at least he was a likable fellow unlike Mr. Bush.

9. Our library is having a book you can sign and put your thoughts
in, which will be forwarded to the Reagan Library. I'm tempted, but I won't. Ignoring and saying nothing I guess is the best statement.

10. yea
The book will probably be looked over anyway before they send it and objectionable comments erased or whited out.

12. But George Gipp was the Gipper
Next Faux will be telling me that William Shatner really was Captain James T Kirk and that Alannis Morrisette really was God.
