Well, that is what he called him when it was "Bed Time."

I'm picturing a big wet spot on his St. Ronnie bedspread.

mumbly_joe February 4, 2011 at 8:19 pm

I'd say something witty, but I'm too busy fuming over the fact that there's nonzero odds that this douchenozzle, unlike yours truly, may have somehow gotten laid between 2007 and the present day

Guppy06 February 4, 2011 at 8:48 pm

Yes, he may have had "sex" more recently than you, but with what? His options are a shrieking harpy, a saddlebacking fundy, a tranny, a twelve year old boy, a 58 year old man, or some combination thereof.

At any rate, has it really been so long since our brave and intrepid editors went trolling Craigslist for postings? Or have they gotten duller since Craig and Foley left town?

mumbly_joe February 4, 2011 at 9:17 pm

HAHAHA YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW FUNNY THAT IS THE LAST TIME I GOT LAID SHE ACTUALLY *WAS* A SADDLEBACKING FUNDIEithinkimgoingtocry.

At least you nobly spread the Santorum, no?

HistoriCat February 5, 2011 at 3:41 pm

I was going to suggest you lower your standards but – yeah, never mind.

LionelHutzEsq February 4, 2011 at 9:13 pm

Ken, no reason to mislead about our 40th President. The correct answers are as follows:

1. What was Ronald Reagan’s middle name?

Mommy

2. What was Reagan’s birthday?

It's all right, he can't remember it either.

3. In what state was Ronald Reagan born?

Trick question. There were no states back then. The actual answer is Pangaea.

4. In 1966, Reagan defeated a sitting California governor. That governor’s son currently holds statewide elected office in California – what office does he hold?

Official Bikini and Bong Inspector, Oakland, California.

5. What was the name of Reagan’s “roommate”?

Trick question number 2. Everyone knows it was Lincoln that had a "roommate." Reagan much preferred getting down to the dockyards when "Mommy" wasn't available to do what she does best.

LionelHutzEsq February 4, 2011 at 9:14 pm

Correct answers continued:

6. What was Ronald Reagan’s high school nickname?

"Red." Both because of his socialistic leanings in high school, and because of his fame in deflowering freshmen.

7. How many lives did Reagan save while working as a lifeguard?

A small fraction of the Marines he had killed for no particular reason other than an attempt to be "muy Macho" in Lebanon.

8. Fill in the blank: “Go out there and win one for ___________.”

'Big Business.' We would have also have accepted "Corporate Interest," "The Rich," or "Damn, the Teleprompter is broken again."

9. What college did Reagan graduate from?

Trick question number 3. College is for elites. Reagan was too busy serving his country in WWII to waste time on education.

10. For whom did Reagan give his famous 1964 speech “A Time for Choosing”?

The latest starlet that he knocked up.

cheaphits February 4, 2011 at 9:15 pm

10. For whom did Reagan give his famous 1964 speech “A Time for Choosing Which One is Stump Broke”?

Borax's 20 mule team?

ulTIMum February 4, 2011 at 9:43 pm

11. When his aids advised him the Challenger had exploded, what was the comment of this astute and engaged leader of the Free World?

(d) "Is that the one with the teacher?"

12. Spouse Nancy was heard over the roar of the Presidential chopper (which acted as the president's non-hearing aid) just after rhe press pool had asked why something important wasn't done: "We are doing all we can." What was Reagan's response to the press corps?

(c) "We are doing all we can."

Amaravilha February 4, 2011 at 11:33 pm

Q: What was the change in the national debt between when Reagan entered and when he left office?

A: Heh. Tip O'Neill. Heh indeed.

Speaking of Fun Facts: This Sunday will be the first time in seven years that Grover Norquist will have gotten an erection. He will immediately rename his penis "Ronald Reagan".

Not_So_Much February 5, 2011 at 1:19 pm

Grover isn't getting it up unless there's a boys choir doing the halftime show.

Naked_Bunny February 5, 2011 at 12:05 am

I'm just going to answer all the questions with "buttsecks" and let others deal with the horrifying consequences. It's the Reagan thing to do.

PuckStopsHere February 5, 2011 at 12:14 am

This is pretty much the best thread in the history of teh Wonkett. Thumbs up for all…

Go out and win one for the herpes!

ShaveTheWhales February 5, 2011 at 3:25 am

I'm a little late, but the correct answer to each of the ten questions is

"I don't give a fuck. Go sodomize Zombie Reagan' s enormous .left nostril and then die. Thank you."

SayItWithWookies February 5, 2011 at 4:09 am

"Are you better off now than you were four years ago?"

That's the difference between the Republicans in Reagan's ascendancy and now. In 1980 they hoped that the Democrats screwed things up enough that the answer was no. Now they've hoped that Dubya screwed things up enough that two years from now, the answer will still be no. They went from the party of hoping things are bad to the party of hoping things are so bad they can't be fixed in a Democrat's term. Fuck Ronald Reagan, the Republicans, and the horse they had themselves filmed riding in on.

LiveToServeYa February 5, 2011 at 8:39 am

I am proud that I don't know any of the answers. Wait! I do know 'the Gipper'. Time for another lobotomy.

8. Fill in the blank: “Go out there and win one for ___________.”

SATAN. (Ronald Wilson Reagan, 666)

Failure_Artist February 5, 2011 at 1:12 pm

The scare quotes around "roommate" make me wonder what the real answer is.

Lazy Media February 5, 2011 at 2:09 pm

You know what's gross? I actually know the answers to, like, 5 or 6 of those questions. Fuckin' '80s, GET OUT OF MY HEAD! Oh, and I'm not sleeping with that dude, either; let's get that straight up front.

Come here a minute February 5, 2011 at 3:07 pm

Remembering isn't so bad, as long as you're not fondly remembering

MiniMencken February 5, 2011 at 2:13 pm

And you, Wonketteers, here are ten questions whose answers you should know:

1) Reagan was president of the Screen Actor's Guild six times. During that time, he used his position to benefit one Hollywood company. The company's initials were _____.
2) When Ronald Reagan got behind in his income taxes, he was bailed out with a two-week gig at a Mafia-owned casino in Las Vegas. The name of the hotel/casino was ____.
3) Nancy Reagan's adoptive father was a doctor. What gag did interns and residents working with him like to pull?
4) What was Nancy's nickname in Hollywood before she married Reagan?
5) The nickname was in honor of what performance speciality?
6) Who was James Rector?
7) What institution did Reagan describe as "a haven for communist sympathizers, protesters and sex deviants?"
8) Reagan told a group in April of 1970, "If it takes a bloodbath, let's get it over with. No more appeasement." He was discussing what dire threat?
9) Reagan appointed a lumber industry lobbyist, James Watt, Secretary of the Interior. Watt banned what band from playing on the Washington Mall in 1983 because it would "attract the wrong element.?"
10) Reagan, subpoenaed before a grand jury, appeared to experience amnesia during his testimony. When did this occur?

Answers: 1) MCA; 2) Last Frontier; 3) Telling black mothers they should name their child after him. He was a virulent racist. Nancy described him as "a man of great integrity who exemplified old-fashioned values."; 4) Jaws; 5) fellatio; 6) A spectator at a demonstration in Berkeley who was killed by police called out by Reagan to quell a student protest.; 7) The University of California campus at Berkeley. ; 8) Student anti-war protests.; 9) The Beach Boys; 10) February 5, 1962. Reagan failed to recall the major decisions that had been made when SAG, whose president he was, had granted MCA, his longtime employer, exclusive rights to engage in film production. No other talent agency was ever given this waiver.

DashboardBuddha February 5, 2011 at 5:28 pm

That picture looks very similar to the "angry Jesus" picture.

Oblios_Cap February 5, 2011 at 5:51 pm

If not for Shrub, Ronnie would win the "Worst President Ever" competition hands down.

LetUsBray February 6, 2011 at 2:29 pm

I would argue that he still should. Cowboy Caligula may have been technically worse, but the Gypper made his criminal excesses and absurdities possible, and legitimized them in advance. When they do the autopsy on our country, it's Reagan's fingerprints they'll find.

GeorgiaPeachy February 6, 2011 at 5:20 pm

Neither one of them can hold a candle to Nixon. Nixon killed America, Reagan buried it and Shrub pissed on the grave.

ifthethunderdontgetya February 6, 2011 at 6:36 pm

It seems you skipped over what Bill Clinton and Barack Obama have done to restore Democracy, liberalism, and the fortunes of the average American.

Allow me:

Bill Clinton made sure the Democratic Party was nothing but Republican Lite.

Barack Obama took a deservedly disgraced Republican Party, a 60 seat Senate majority, and a huge majority in the House and squandered ALL OF IT in just two years.

So now he's sucking face with Bill O'Reilly on the Super Bowl pregame show, and the rest of us are more fvcked than ever.

Heckuva job, Brownie Barry!

This bears so much repeating.

GOPCrusher February 7, 2011 at 4:07 pm

Oh I don't know. The William Henry Harrison Administration seems to get a lot of votes for Worst President Ever.

kenlayisalive February 5, 2011 at 9:04 pm

I think we can all safely assume that the "Ronald Regan Questionnaire" method of courtship was a failure.

And if not, then sterilizations for all, just to be safe.

politics_nerd February 6, 2011 at 4:18 pm

Ronnie and his piss-on-the-working-class religion will destroy us yet.

DCHatesMe February 6, 2011 at 6:33 pm

I remember he used to be angry about some stuff.
And then he'd make jokes about stuff.
And then he'd be all serious like.
And then he'd walk off in a fog.
Sort of like an actor, only worse.

Redhead February 7, 2011 at 7:15 pm

Trick questions. Ronnie sprang, fully-formed, from the belly of Satan. He spent the first 14 years of his existence hiding in the woods and eating babies until he met Nancy and she convinced him to get plastic surgery to remove the horns.
