Cartoon for February 14
In perhaps the most bizarre attempt to exploit the weird GOP's Cult of Reagan to date, John McCain claims he was "inspired by [then California governor] Ronald Reagan" in 1967, while he was rotting in a Hanoi shithole.

They wouldn't give him porn, so he had to jerk off to an old copy of TV Guide that had a picture of Reagan on the cover. Have a heart!
Beautiful, fucking beautiful!!!
I'd only make my girlfriend wear one if we had anal intercourse.
Damn, I was going to make virtually the same comment, except that they had let him watch "Bedtime for Bonzo" in lieu of porn.
That is such a crazy coincidence! When I fuck my pillow, I put a Reagan mask on it and pretend it's McCain's wife.
Seriously? Was Reagan even the Governor of California during that time period?
When I graduated high school in 1983, I wasn't sure what i wanted to do. I had played in a successful rock band and my com-patriots left me in the lurch, for their destinies were written by their parents. I bummed around two local colleges until I decided to enroll In the Institute of Audio Research in NYC. My previous forays into higher education were totally paid for by Federal financial aid. My father had been in Korea during the conflict,and they used to just hand out money. But this time... NO MONEY!!! I asked the financial aid officer why. He told me that the Reagan administration had just cut the Federal financial aid program to shreds. No school fer me. I was a history major in high school and in my first 2 attempts at real college, but recent US history was and still is NEVER MENTIONED!!! I took it upon myself to find out what Reagan did with the money and , you guessed it, he sent it to Iraq. During the First gulf war I made it a habit to point out to the war supporters that my college money paid for those "FUCKING SCUDS!!" It almost got me killed once. I've been paying attention ever since. When I hear one of these Nazis toast the memory of Reagan, it makes me sick. Everything that has gone wrong here since WW2 could have been prevented and i may be a fool but I'd like to make 2 points.
1. They should have let Patton roll through Berlin. And
2. Israel should have never been allowed to be formed. The Nazis should have paid for all their crimes against the Jews, and to quote George Carlin, They should have given them Bavaria.
These two fuck-ups are why we have the problems we have today. I may be oversimplifying the situation, but Hannity does the same when he says that Reagan won the cold war.
"Leave the gun on the table loaded, the first to grab it's as good as voted in..."
Scenario 1
A democrat wins. nascent liberals (aka everyone in the US) remain nascent.
Scenario 2
McCain wins. A depression occurs. FDR gets elected.
