This is so weird. I had never made the positive connection before between Regnery publishing and the guy who came to speak to my senior poly sci class when he was running against Jim Doyle for DA in Madison, though I did wonder about it. I remember my teacher telling us about some weird stuff going on with the guy. Jim Doyle is now Governor of Wisconsin. Wow.

My favorite part of this is that even with the biased sources he quotes, the closest he gets to someone actually denying Reagan’s dumbness is one person who claims that it was all an act: the rest of them just misdirect by talking about how popular he was or how he killed the Rooskies.

I don’t know if Stone’s a historian (he says he’s not, Bozell says he is-because he makes historically based films?) but, unlike virtuallly all of his critics, he is a veteran of combat in the Vietnam war. That seems to get forgotten by the wingers. Some skinny blonde elitist lawyer in a black dress criticizing someone who literally put his life on the line to protect our freedom and defeat communism- why do the republicans hate our troops?

In fact, Daddy Bozell married Buckley’s sister.

And I seem to remember that Papa was also a big fan of good old Francisco Franco.

It was his father, who was a friend of BB.

I wonder who still idolizes St. Ronnie. Other than right-bloggers, wingnuts and Newt. If The Right still wants Reagan as their brand – good on ‘em I say. He’ll certainly win back all the voters that have left them, after all he did defeat the entire Soviet Union in a no-holds-barred cage match.

As I recall, Obama was careful to pay tribute to Reagan during the course of his campaign. Which I guess is to be expected, from a Center-Right politician like Obama. Just saying.

I’m sorry, but no matter how many times people tell me this, I can never remember (and I just don’t feel like looking it up)–is this Brent Bozo the one who wrote Joe McCarthy Was the Awesomest Patriot Ever with Bill Buckley? Or is it his son, or nephew, or devil spawn, whatever?

Conservatism, they suspect, [...] will leave you in a marriage that doesn’t satisfy you, burden you with children you don’t want, repress your passions, and trap you in a empty, boring, and unfulfilled life..

I guess I never realized what a resemblance L. Brent Bozell III has to Vladmir Lenin.

Oh dear. The aitchless are forgiven of course.

This is great news for McCain.

For Steve Schmidt, for sure. Bill Kristol, on the other hand…

Mr. Bozell, in his capacity as ninny-trying-to-be-smart, uses the construction “an historian”.

I am distraught and tearful now. Your job here is done.

By lack of fortitude, I’m not implying a loss of courage on my part. I just don’t have much stomach for wingnut screeds anymore,

Thanks for the kudos, DKW. TBH, I got the link from Balloon Juice.
Ever since August 2008, I have lacked the fortitude to view wingnut material directly. While I will click a link now and again if referenced by a liberal/left/progressive blog, I find that the less I view The Corner, HotAir, Malkin etc., the happier and better adjusted I am.

The TNR Al Regnery piece is wonderful

Reading that piece (by Murray Waas, of all people!) brought back a lot of bad memories of how fucked up that whole period was. God, I hated those motherfuckers. They were the beginnings of what led up to George W. Bush, and the shithole we now find ourselves neck-deep in. I hope they all suffer horrible, painful deaths.

But I’m not bitter.

Maybe Sarah will run for Senator. Maybe she needs time to get ‘clear’ of her Thetans. Maybe she will co-host The View after Joy Behar leaves. Maybe she will provide cogent analysis of the news for Bill O’Reilly, after he spazzes out when Al Franken is sworn in as The Esteemed Senator From The Great State Of Minnesota. Maybe she will be the new Superintendent of the Fox News Security Service. Maybe she will write a cookbook and promote it on Kelly & Regis.
