How come nobody's talking about how Reagan sat around on his ass while AIDS became a full blown epidemic.

 

[Greg B.]

And his role in US involvement in third world countries, as portrayed by Annabelle

[minxnim]

[lizard]

I keep hearing about how Ron TORE DOWN THE BERLIN WALL SINGLEHANDEDLY, WRASSELED GORBY TO THE GROUND, GAVE HIM A WEDGIE AND SWATTED COMMUNISM INTO OBLIVION WITH A FLICK OF HIS MANLY RANCHING WRIST.

“He pulled some handwritten notes out of his top pocket and read to me that the people who worked for the nuclear weapons freeze (which at that time was 80% of the U.S. population supported the freeze) were either K.G.B. duped or Soviet Agents. I said, that's from last month's "Reader's Digest." John Barron's piece and he said, no that's from my Intelligence files. Patty reassured me later that that was virtually one and the same thing. He virtually never read a book or very few although he stopped to read the "Reader's Digest" every month, all his life. At one point, she said that I know that what Dr. Caldicott is saying is correct, because I have a 1989 Pentagon document to prove it, and without looking at it, he said that's a forgery. I think it was one of the most shocking experiences of my life.”

"As the nation observes a day of mourning for former President Ronald Reagan, we at Gay Men’s Health Crisis stand together with our brothers and sisters across the country to remember the thousands of men, women and children who have died of AIDS because of the inaction and silence of his Administration. While our doors will remain open to serve our clients and provide the critical services on which they rely, we look to this day to remember those we have lost while reflecting on the work that remains to be done. On this day, we recommit ourselves to continue to support people living with HIV, demand accountability from our leaders, fight for a world without AIDS, and not permit the return of the silence that resulted in so many deaths."
