We shall always remember you Mr. President. Thank you for many years of loyal service when the free world needed a strong leader the most.

To the man who helped kill Communism!
Devolution is quite as natural as evolution, and may be just as pleasing, or even a good deal more pleasing, to God. If the average man is made in God's image, then a man such as Beethoven or Aristotle is plainly superior to God, and so God may be jealous of him, and eager to see his superiority perish with his bodily frame.

Didn't think he was a spectacular President by any means, nor have I ever been convinced that his 'winning' the Cold War was anything but a great big false cause fallacy, but rest in peace Gipper.

Goodbye Mr. President. Thank you for your service.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

To the man that lead the free world
To the man that helped revive a nation
To a man we need more like

May whatever god he believed in, welcome him with open arms and heart
I've been asked why I still follow a few of the people I know on Facebook with 'interesting political habits and view points'.

It's so when they comment on or approve of something, I know what pages to block/what not to vote for.

Growing up in the 80's, Reagan was up there with Optimus Prime in my child's mind, as far as stately masculinity was concerned. Heh.
If Religion and Politics were characters on a soap opera, Religion would be the one that goes insane with jealousy over Politics' intimate relationship with Reality, and secretly murder Politics in the night, skin the corpse, and run around its apartment wearing the skin like a cape shouting "My votes now!

My condolences to his family, how he went was a terrible way to go, and I wouldn't wish his fate upon my worst enemy.

Godspeed, Mr. President. May you rest in peace.
どうして？お前が夜に自身お触れるから。
Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shape-shifting Master of Darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil,
but a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow
was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future, where my evil is law! Now, the fool
seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku...
