Morning Again in America

R.I.P. Ronald Reagan

Our condolences go out to the Reagan family.

The Commissar has an extensive link roundup.

Government is not the solution, it's the problem

Update: I had thought about writing something about how Reagan died and now I don't need to.

S-Train has already written it:

That's a fucked up way for a person to check out of this life...

You progress to a damn statue. No ability to do anything. No response. No emotion. Just a lump of flesh. Damn!

So I got to thinking about Ronald Reagan. Here's a man that was an actor, governor, U.S. president, husband, friend, and father. All those experiences. All those memories. Reduced so far at the end by this disease. Terrible.

So my condolences to the family of Ronald Reagan. I know you stuck it out to the very end with him. Something family is supposed to do. Even if he was unable to express it and tell it, he left this life a happy man since you were there with him in the end.

Update (6/7): Brian Leiter has some more links. Via PZ Myers.

My condolences instead go to the famlies of the thousands of people murdered by Reagan.
