Quote of the Day: Ronald Reagan on George W. Bush

"A moment I've been dreading. George brought his ne'er-do-well son around this morning and asked me to find the kid a job. Not the political one who lives in Florida . The one who hangs around here all the time looking shiftless. This so-called kid is already almost 40 and has never had a real job. Maybe I'll call Kinsley over at The New Republic and see if they'll hire him as a contributing editor or

something. That looks like easy work."

~ From the just published REAGAN DIARIES. The entry is dated May 17, 1986.

That is so shabbily untrue!!

It originates from an article of 2nd July 2007 in the New Republic, "My Lunch With Reagan" by Michael Kinsley, and it's prefaced:I was more interested in the me angle, frankly. And it was a puzzle. What on earth could Reagan have written? I indulged my imagination, and my ego:followed by the fantasy you quoted as fact.
