Ah, its good to be back after a bit.
Way to marginalize their position without actually providing any sort of real reasons as to why you are doing that.
Now, this is dumb to me, but for a very different reason. Unfortunately, in this era, the best way to get noticed is to get national media coverage. Logistically speaking, this is probably the least favorable time to be covered and have their point discussed. Fox, MSNBC, and CNN are too busy showing pictures of devestation and sighing to give this story and creedance beyond perhaps a small segment. I think their heart is in the right place, its just that they need to synch their mind to be more effective.
You know, its probably the along the path of least resistance to simply disregard what you've said because its so... ignorant, but I can't find it in myself to do it. So, in an effort to be as... non harsh as possible, and to explore how you think, I'd appreciate it if you could explain exactly why Reagan will go down in history as "one of the best US presidents ever", balancing both his successes and failings. I understand it is a lot harder to support claims then to simply make them, but i'd think that if it is a claim worth making it is also one worth explaining.

Political affliations aside, It's sad to see these people organizing this event, logistics and all - with food, water, signs, and transportation, when there are currently (2) two disaster areas in the US in desperate need of help. If they really cared about The US, and about our "children" theyd put aside their hippy ways and drive down to NO or Texas to help out with the relief effort. Why? Hell, they could make a PR stunt out of it for all I care, Call it "AID BECUZ BUSH 1s T3H SUCK" - see if I notice.
But that would make sense now, wouldn't it?

That's what people said about Reagan in the 1980s, and now he's regarded as one of the best US presidents ever. Food for thought. =)
