The general theme is Ronald Reagan did wonderful things for the economic system although he didn't do anything else. In fact, Ronald Reagan and the economy worked together like putting wild African leeches into a public swimming pool.
Zen Yogi: I thought he stopped the Cold War or something
He didn't stop it, mate; he extended and expanded it by massive and provocative military spending. No statue for him unless he pays for it himself.
Zen Yogi: but he's dead
Well, there's your answer, Yogi.
Would Reagan's face fit on Mt. Rushmore? Norquist said he's already looked into it.
"I'm told that it would," Norquist said. "My preference is to replace Teddy Roosevelt because he was a statist and a progressive Republican as opposed to a Reagan Republican. Does he deserve the kind of status that a Jefferson and a Washington have? The answer is yes, he does."
CNN: Why Ronald Reagan's name is everywhere
Think of it in 3D which Norquist has not likely ever used in his life since the rock up there won't magically replace that which is lost when they remove Teddy Roosevelt. The image of Reagan would be well behind the other figures and would look patently ludicrous.
The Washington National Airport was renamed Reagan National Airport but they have apparently forgotten that not long after Reagan took office, Air Florida F90 crashed into the Potomac and seventy-eight people died.
Norquist: it wasn't renamed until well after that
I don't give a fuck when they renamed it since the salient question is what did Reagan bring to Washington the fastest?
Zen Yogi: a huge plane crash
That's right, Yogi.
