That link takes you to a story written by a satirist. This "story" is starting to go viral and lefties everywhere are sucking it down without even stopping to think about it.

Look for it on your FB wall/timeline soon! Just don't buy into it.


Also, the article is really fucking brilliant. Left leaning people, or anyone who dislikes the current idolization of Reagan, will enjoy it. It is a little bit of fantasy that we'd all love to be true so we could nut-stomp republicans with it.


Ignorance is preferable to error; and he is less remote from the truth who believes nothing, than he who believes what is wrong.
