Comp. Sci. Lines: 35 Let's look at this rationally: It's election time. Ronnie has to do something to provide leadership for his party. Drugs. Sounds good, get Nancy, get the couch out, make it family style. Now all you republicans having trouble with the issues, you've got your platform, if they ask about farm foreclosures, tell them how you stand on drugs, if they ask about unemployment, tell them you would hang drug dealers if it were up to you, if they ask you why the deficit has skyrocketed under the leadership of your party when you swore that was exactly what you were going to correct tell them you'll get the pushers out of the schools. Pick up your anti-drug posters and buttons at the door, see you in congress... Gimme a break, why don't the rest of you wake up to what Madison Avenue, packaging and marketing is all about in American Politics. To a social climber like Reagan you are an insect, not even worthy of contempt, to think he is "concerned" about whether you stuff your veins with drugs is such an hysterical thought I can barely type this in...but ok, if it makes you feel better, he cares, he really does, sincerely, Nancy too, they both stay up nights worrying about your cute little problems, oh, and maybe just a little about the guest list to the White House Christmas Party...I wonder if Pete Dupont is free? And the Getty's bring such nice gifts... -Barry Shein, Boston University
