We at Your Wonkette found it kind of tacky and ridiculous when we read everywhere that some tone-deaf deciderer on Obama's communications staff had decidered to update each former president's biography with references to Bamz himself. A little hubristic, fellows, no? But that was before we saw that this included even St. Ronald Reagan! And oh, everyone is just spitting mad! What is in Reagan's White House bio now? Simply that he joins Obama from beyond the grave in calling for the Buffett Rule. FUCK YEAH GHOST RONALD REAGAN! All is forgiven, Obama communications staff. Have fun trolling all the Breitards!
Take it away, White House:
Did you know?
President Reagan designated Martin Luther King Jr. Day a national holiday; today the Obama Administration honors this tradition, with the First and Second Families participating in service projects on this day.
In a June 28, 1985 speech Reagan called for a fairer tax code, one where a multi-millionaire did not have a lower tax rate than his secretary. Today, President Obama is calling for the same with the Buffett Rule.
And did you know, Dick Cheney voted against Martin Luther King Jr. Day when he was in Congress, because he is a dick? Hugging and learning!
Yeah, I don&#039;t remember Roy Hattersley&#039;s actual face nearly as well as I remember his Spitting Image puppet spraying spital like a garden hose. I don&#039;t think I remember anything Paddy Ashdown <em>actually</em> said but I definitely remember the SI &quot;I didn&#039;t touch her on the left leg, or on the right leg, but somwhere in between&quot;
I was disappointed I couldn&#039;t quickly find a youtube of them pouring jelly beans into Reagan&#039;s head, but inserting the brain was good enough.
Good times :)
why are we clutching our pearls here? republicans routinely rewrite the entire history of the last 50 years. and GOD, they certainly rewrite (well,attempt) the bush administration. hell, mittens is rewriting his own history on a daily basis.
if we want to clutch our pearls about barry, i would say let&#039;s focus on drone strikes and civilian wiretapping.
not BS campaign crap.
