The American Spectator

Sounds good, but don't expect it to happen under President Bozo and the Democrat Senate. Even though the US taxpayers should not fund this museum, Congress will no doubt have to approve the idea before it will go forward. And if they do so, expect the name to change to "victims of oppression" from "victims of communism." Democrats will never admit that their political kindred were responsible for any "terrible experiences."

Perhaps you will be proved correct concerning Obama; we'll see by 2012. However it also took two years to discover how clueless Bush 41 was.
He had approx. a 90 percent approval rating after Desert Storm. Yet, naturally, he blew it.
And just you watch how Newt, the Brain of the GOP, botches it up with his Tocqueville-Toffler witches' brew. What a comedy it will be next year.

I find it interesting that you would call up the memory of Alexis de Tocqueville and Alvin Toffler to point out the foibles of Newt Gingrich –two of the greatest minds and most prescient thinkers of their centuries. If I were Mr. Gingrich, I would be honored!

I am also amused when people question the intelligence of President Bush: The man graduated from Yale, went on to get a Master’s Degree, is a self-man millionaire, was elected President of the United States, twice, read 90 books last year, and oh yes, let’s not forget, his policies kept us safe from terrorism for nearly a decade now, and have largely been adopted by President Obama.

Where did you go to school? Do you have your Master’s? What is in your bank account? How many books did you read last year? And what do you do for a living? Calling a man “clueless” when his intellectual and professional accomplishments outshine your own exponentially makes you...?

The article was about a suggested memorial to the victims of communism. My comment was that Democrats would not support such an idea unless it were renamed. You chime in with a pointless and erroneous comment about George W. Bush's intelligence. Again we see the Brooks trademark: non-sequiturs and irrelevancies. Your comment is as meaningless as it is insipid. That you would go SO FAR out of your way and off subject to spew a stupid remark about Bush, and that you would do so repeatedly on these pages, is indicative of irrationality. You need help.

Wait a minute ... Frum said something positive about Reagan?

Alan Brooks| 11.22.10 @ 9:14PM

After two Bushes, a Dole and a McCain, Reagan's presidency sure does appear better & better.

Albert| 11.23.10 @ 11:41AM

Nothing and no one can make Obama's presidency look better. The presidency simply can not be put in the hands of a lesser person, since a lesser person does not exist. My dog would make a better president than Barack Obama. And I mean that literally, since my dog is loyal. That cannot be said of Obama. Again, what does this have to do with the subject of the article?

I like the memorial idea.I also think that all consevative talk radio should play the "A Time for Choosing"speech an his birthday.To know it's playing all over the country/world would be realy awesome.

I would support this idea under private funding. I'm sure we could get some wealthy people who still believe in America and being exceptional nation to fund it. Maybe more people would realize and appreciate the freedom they have here.

We are still paying for Reagan's mistakes as president. Should we then pay for a museum of his mistakes!?
I would much rather honor his speech writers who are, by far, more worthy people.
