More Reagan Haters

"This man is a criminal. This man is a murderer and doesn't deserve any respect," remarked Honduran Zenaida Velasquez Rodriguez about Ronald Reagan. Others agreed that the day of his burial was a perfect time for protest. "I have no problem criticizing the dead, especially when hundreds of thousands of Central Americans died without even a decent burial," San Francisco State University anthropologist Sheila Tully told the Associated Press.

A few dozen protestors lined the route Reagan's hearse took to the National Cathedral, some carrying signs stating: "Reagan in Hell."

"I don't see how anybody can summon grief," widley unread columnist Jimmy Breslin wrote. "His whole weeklong funeral is cheap, utterly distasteful American publicity." According to Breslin, Reagan was "a callous man," "Ronald Reagan hated children," and "Reagan belongs on a $3-bill."

Where does Jimmy Breslin, Professor Sheila Tully, and the assortment of weirdos and hatemongers who've attacked Ronald Reagan on the day of his funeral belong? Somewhere quiet, and serene, and with a lot of doctors; somewhere they can get what troubles them off their chests; somewhere proper medication is readily available; somewhere they can relate to people with similar problems; somewhere far away from the rest of us.

In regards to your suggestion about helping Jimmy Breslin, Professor Sheila Tully, and the assortment of weirdos and hatemongers who've attacked Ronald Reagan on the day of his funeral, f$#k them. Let them rot in hell. I know you were being sarcastic but those kind of people could eat $hit and die.
