AIDS is Funny. "Gay Plague" is Even Funnier

This post that has parts of transcripts from actual Reagan Administration press conerences has received a lot of attention since Atrios linked to it this morning. But it deserves every link it gets. There was no excuse even twenty years ago for members of the press and a Reagan official to behave as they did. And while we're enduring the making of Saint Ronald, we should be able to remember how history really played out.

I am way past sick of all the funeral coverage business... it's not interesting, it's a casket being followed around the capital. "You'll never see this again in your life time" ..... well amen.

Apparently not to key figures in Reagan's administration. It was a regular laugh riot, the bastards.

Well is AIDS not the gay plague?
How do you think it came to the normal people originally? It came from gay homosexuals!

It actually came from homosexuals who were having sex with monkeys in Africa - now isn't that funny?
And it's a historical FACT!

Zinn


  • "[O]ur time, our energy, should be spent in educating, agitating, organizing our fellow citizens in the workplace, in the neighborhood, in the schools. Our objective should be to build, painstakingly, patiently but energetically, a movement that, when it reaches a certain critical mass, would shake whoever is in the White House, in Congress, into changing national policy on matters of war and social justice."

Bono


  • "True religion will not let us fall asleep in the comfort of our freedom. Love thy neighbor is not a piece of advice, it's a command. ...

    God, my friends, is with the poor and God is with us, if we are with them. This is not a burden, this is an adventure."

The Reverend Al Sharpton


  • Ray wasn't singing about what he knew, 'cause Ray had been blind since he was a child. He hadn't seen many purple mountains. He hadn't seen many fruited plains. He was singing about what he believed to be.

    Mr. President, we love America, not because of all of us have seen the beauty all the time.

    But we believed if we kept on working, if we kept on marching, if we kept on voting, if we kept on believing, we would make America beautiful for everybody.

Marx


  • ''With adequate profit, capital is very bold. A certain 10 percent will ensure its employment anywhere; 20 percent will produce eagerness, 50 percent positive audacity; 100 percent will make it ready to trample on all human laws; 300 percent, and there is not a crime which it will not scruple, nor a risk it will not run, even to the chance of its owner being hanged.''
