I tuned into CNN Headline News. After the moving tribute to Ronald Reagan, a smiling Asian woman said, “Do you want to know the secret of happieness? [We’ll tell you after the break.]” Ah, the disconnection of newsies! :rolleyes:
The CNN report said that Iran-Contra was the most serious problem of the Reagan presidency. Looking at the current administration, I can only wish for such problems. I made fun of Reagan when he was President. I called him “Ray-Gun” (for his “Star Wars” initiative) and “Slay-Gun” (because I felt he might be too eager to go to war against the Soviets).
Well; goodbye, Mr. Reagan. You scared me when you were President; but the economy did recover, and the Cold War ended on your watch. Requiescat in pace.
