I hated Ronald Raygun with a passion. During his eight years, I was depressed to be in the minority, surrounded by a herd of his dim-witted, adoring fans. Raygun\u2019s fans worshipped him and despised people like me \u2013 Liberals<\/em>, they sneered. It was a dark, unpleasant time. You know what I did? Toughed it out and waited for a better day.<\/p>\n

I hated DUHbya most of all. He was a spoiled, stupid, rich frat boy masquerading as somebody humble and hardworking. Duhbya is even dumber than Raygun was. And, whereas Raygun used charisma to gain power, Duhbya and his thugs used bullying. After the 2004 election, Karl Rove, \u201cthe architect of victory,\u201d declared Republicans would hold power for the next generation. You know what I did? I wrote my vision of that generation<\/a>.<\/p>\n
