Ron Reagan Interviews Robert Reich on Air America about our ecomony and where we are.........


I have been listening to more and more Air America this winter and "spring"...this interview was wonderful, and I really wish MSNBC would think about having Ron have his own show....but what do I know....and Montel added to their line up has been really interesting...and well there is always Rachel...( anyways look over on the sidebar and there is a Radio Button- link to it and listen to any of the shows...) Click the title to hear this Ron Interview.

And Robert has an excellent blog where he discusses all things economic, but he explains it in a way that makes so much sense....this week the Car Industry Mess...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ron Speaking his eulogy at his Dad's Funeral Summer of 2004....Watch the Last TWO minutes Very Closely....he is sending Bush a Messege about Men in Politics who use their Faith or religion to Further their Political agenda...it is a very telling 2 minutes...and beautifully done...it was brilliant and not a standard Eulogy in any way....

and Speaking about Stem Cell Research at the 2004 DNC Convention ( now remember- this was a contentious summer, Bush was campaigning heavy, and he and Ron did not hit it off, and Ron spoke out bravely at his Fathers Funeral- helluva Eulogy, and the Stem Cell issue was hot even that summer- thanks to Bush...and all summer Different Repugs were begging Ron NOT to speak at the DNC....this was an act of Courage...

unlike his idiot father and wicked mother -- Ron Reagan has a brain and a soul......

i hate that the GOP has elevated nancy davis to some sort of doyenne of the establishment

she is nothing more than an old witch, but she does score a point on stem cell

yeah I really like Ron....I got hooked on him when we lived in California and he spoke at his father's funeral- it was really eloquent and VERY pointedly a message to the Bushes....

I was thunderstruck that he was smart and had a heart...HOW did he come out of that union....oye...

and then last year during the election last year- MSNBC would pair him with Rachel- such intelligence...a cerebral feast...

( and yeah...about Ronnie...well, don't get me started....it ain't pretty- remember I was an AIDS nurse during the late 80's...need I say more ?)

Summer 2004....Ron really stood up...spoke his truth at his dad's funeral...and also spoke at the DNC about stem cell...I need to find that...here is his statement:::

On his mother’s involvement with stem cell research: ( MSNBC website)
Ron Reagan: She’s where she always has been which is very pro-embryonic stem cell research not just for people with Alzheimer’s, which it may or may not help with that. But there are a lot of other diseases, diabetes, Parkinson’s, on and on.

For the federal government, for this administration to stand in its way just to pander to people who, well-meaning as they may be, are, I think, ignorant of the facts—is just unconscionable to me. I mean, this is just...intellectually untenable their position...if they want to be against embryonic stem cell research, okay. But then you have to be against—invitro-fertilization as well. So, if you’re going to be against one, you have to be against the other. But, of course, that’s a political non-starter...it’s intellectually and morally inconsistent. And, you know, they’re making moral arguments. So, they’d better be consistent with that. And they’re not.
