anti_righty they are celebrating the death of Ronald Reagan.
Jesus Christ.
That just pisses me off. Especially since they're being so childish about it. Hey, guys? We're supposed to be the nice guys. We're not supposed to sink to the level of shit that they do.
Also, wait a day or two. Out of respect. I don't/didn't agree with his policies, and I do believe he fucked up a good deal of America, but he (probably) did good things too. He was not the Uber!Evil. He has also been out-of-office for 16 years. If he'd been a malicious dictator who'd just died? Yes, then celebration is called for. As it is, his death does not "free" us from anything, or make politics in America better. So really, there is no fucking reason to celebrate.
In conclusion: Grow up.
ETA: Christ on a bicycle. They're discussing whether or not conservatives are allowed to badmouth Che Guevera (because he was left wing and thusly a good, stable man) and comparing him to Ronald Reagan.
Head? This is desk. I trust you two will get well aquainted.
