. . . Bush Sr. striked me as a pretty cool guy.

He was a qualified leader. He's a war hero and a skull'n'bones man going way back.

But he's also not the guy the Republicans point at when they want absolution for being heinous dicks.

Yeah. Point at Reagan. One election removed from the supervillian who ushered this in? How the fuck did the public absolve that party so fast? Because we got stupid grandpa running against a real Christian empath?

Everytime I see a Reagan park or school or whatever I want to piss on it or throw up in my car

I've now rusted my own jimmies

I also don't think I said anything important

I also may have given Jimmy Carter a lot of credit. But at least he was a good man

Whatever you do, don't visit Washington DC. There ain't a street, bridge, park, mall or parking garage not named after some evil fuckin' post-war Republican.
