Was the blond who challenged Mitchell a bit Peggy Noonan?

Andrea Mitchell is like a thousand years old. Shouldn’t she be off somewhere enjoying her retirement?

Haha. People half as leftist as these current lot hated Reagan’s guts.

And he knew how dangerous they were. Thankfully there any many hundreds of speeches on MP3 (search them) that show us his personality just perfectly.

Wonder why she wants the republicans to stop “appropriating” Reagan—maybe it because Obama is appropriating Reagan.

Andrea and Lesie Stahl spent the entire 1908s bashing Reagan and asking him biased gotcha questions, and brooding when he deftly dodged them every time.

I will never understand certain things. Reagan was a Republican. How can there be criticism of a political party celebrating one of their own? Would Andrea Mitchell criticize Democrats who celebrate FDR, Truman, Johnson, JFK, etc?

If Dems. are upset about celebrating Reagan, they should get even with us and celebrate the achievements of Jimmy Carter.

I know. I thought it was screamingly funny that these aliens were discussing Reagan. They don’t even speak Reagan.

LOL, after the liberal media imbeciles spent the last few weeks tying Obama to the hip with Reagan, including Time Magazine putting Reagan and Obama together on their cover, they’re going to lecture us about “appropriating Reagan?” Get a grip Andrea. Reagan was a Republican. He belongs to us.

You people have been whoring JFK’s corpse around for decades, so we can be forgiven for looking to Reagan as an example of a president who actually accomplished something (unlike JF), and as a model for our party’s future leaders.

Are the left good at anything besides falsely accusing others of what they themselves are guilty of?

Greenspan really knows how to pick them, don’t you think? Not only is she an ugly midget, but she is also as bright as a bag of rocks.

Ronald Reagan was the original Kum-bay-yay guy!
Who knew?

In Ronald Reagan’s unforgetable words: “Mr. Gorbachev, Tear down that wall, if it sems right to you and we can compromise on the meaning of ‘wall’!”

Or remember Reagan’s immortal words of compromise: “I’m from the government and I’m here to help!”

Um. Andrea. Reagan was a Republican. Alan can explain this to you. Reagan appointed him Fed chairman.

Now that’s funny. By making this comment, she acts as if she believes the Left wants to claim party of his legacy too. AS IF!

He was pond scum under their feet in the 80s, 90s, 2000s, and still is today.

With Andrea Mitchel, it’s sort of like having young screaming kids in the room. You learn to filter useless background noise out.

That being said, can one of you please put Andrea’s pacifier back in.
