I know you're just doing the snark bank shot, but my enduring hatred for Reagan forces me to point out that he was a smarmy tool at least by age 40.

Possibly, I am less than one one-thousandth of the man Nelson Mandela was, because I cannot forgive that affable motherfucker (disambiguation: that would be Reagan).

Anne Laurie, writing over at <a href="http:\/\/www.slate.com\/blogs\/weigel\/2013\/12\/05\/go_ahead_politicize_mandela.html" target="_blank">Balloon Juice</a>, has a good post along these lines. Including a tweet from Wonkette alum Alex Pareene: <i>Imagine being young in the 1980s and supporting apartheid. Those people still run most of the conservative movement.</i>

Out of respect for Wookies I'll bite my tongue, but let's just say that in 100 years history will be far kinder to Nelson than Ronnie, no matter how much revisionism the apologists puke up.

Of course they are because they're blithering idiots who wouldn't know the definition of communist if you beat them to death with a Funk and Wagnalls

Mandela deserves it. I can resume pissing on Saint Ronnie ' s grave tomorrow. Lord knows there are plenty of reasons

Yeah, but in the meantime it's a hell of an electoral strategy
