That and a Reagan dime will get you a packet of sugar for your cup of coffee
Quote of note:
"Children need to have role models. We need to honor people who have done great things. It is pretty hard to ignore that he was responsible for some major changes in this country and the world. He brought the economy back and started us on a different path on how we think of limited government. He defeated communism and brought America back in how we think of ourselves. Even his critics would have to give him credit for that."
That stench you now smell is the full-of-shitness becoming evident.

Gov. Jim Doyle has vetoed a bill that would have designated U.S. 14 from the Illinois border to Madison as the Ronald Reagan Highway.
Doyle said he vetoed the bill Wednesday because it would violate the precedent of only Wisconsin-born citizens or state residents having the honor of a state highway or bridge named after them.
But state Sen. Bob Welch, R-Redgranite, who authored the bill with fellow conservative Rep. Scott Suder, R-Abbotsford, called the governor's decision "partisan and very petty."
"Ronald Reagan was one of our greatest presidents. [P6: Matter of opinion, there…]We have a chance to join a lot of other states in honoring him. We do that for other great people," Welch said this morning.
