Glover's Reaction
Michael Williams says he'll never see another Danny Glover movie and I emphatically agree, having read Glover's comments on Reagan's passing as a nation mourns:We all know Reagan's legacy, from the Iran-Contra affair to the funding of the Nicaraguan military in which over 200,000 people died. The groundwork for the move steadily to the right happened with the Reagan administration. People want to elevate him to some mythic level; they have their own reason for doing that.Ronald Reagan was loved and revered by many. To use your position to utter such unkind words at this moment in time is more than just thoughtless or unkind; Glover seeks to denigrate the man and sully his memory, which is the kind of repugnant behavior that we have come to expect from radical liberals.
Glover might think to wait for a few days so as not to interject his politics into the lives of grieving family and friends. But compassion such as that is beyond the realm of a zealot such as he.
However, this did get me to thinking: what will be my reaction when Bill Clinton or Jimmy Carter die? In order to not intrude at an inopportune moment, I just want to say here and now:
- Bill Clinton is a draft-dodging, whore-chasing, lying lech of a rapist who brought shame to the office of president.
- Jimmy Carter is an ineffectual, wimp apologist whose only contribution to society has been the building of homes for the poor, an activity from which he should never divert his attention as whenever he does so he serves to embarrass us all.
- I have unmitigated contempt for both men and loath them with an intensity that would consume a lesser man.
