I wonder if a significant contributor to the library decided to have a few words with them?

He’s suffering more dementia than St. Ronaldus Magnus?

One wonders what caused the curator to engage in “walking back” her recollection?? Towing the “party line” and retaining one’s job perhaps?? Hmmmm???

Gov. Walker was honored to speak at the Reagan Library and to hold his mother’s Bible," Walker spokeswoman Kirsten Kukowski told the AP.

Nothing like subject, object disagreement to clear things up, huh?

A good rule of thumb in dealing with Republicans like Walker is to assume that everything they say is utter bullshit. Its safe 99.99% of the time.

Scottie prolly faps to images of that bible.

Why do I keep thinking about the Blutfahne?

I do like the symbolism of the white glove treatment the book gets. I guess surgical latex or black gloves would deplete it’s powers.

A lot of fundamentalist Christians insist that the King James Bible is the only “real” and acceptable translation of God’s Word, but I’m pretty sure they’d quickly embrace a Reagan Bible if one were ever brought to market.

I’m sensing a terrific opportunity here.

Sounds like someone needs to “anoint” Walker with the truth.
Maybe if someone took “Ronnie’s good book” and gave Walker a good bash, the truth would be “revealed” to everyone involved.
And this man thinks he has a chance to be President? I guess there is comedy in Religion, after all.

In an unrelated note, Walker stated that if he ever had a chance to hold the Constitution, he’d be wearing Edward Scissorhands gloves.

Walker obviously has a very low threshold for excitement, evident in the strokes he’s given the Bible.

jviscont1 · March 18, 2015, 5:33pm

but only with white gloves on.

slagathor · March 18, 2015, 5:35pm

Liar, liar, pants for hire.

bluestatedon · March 18, 2015, 5:44pm

Ding ding ding.

Nancy did go into a light trance but only produced a tiny amount of ectoplasm…

This story literally makes me want to puke. Reagan was a disaster, a criminal, and paved the way for the worst income inequality since the Depression. So of course Walker would idolize him like a god.

Walker is also ‘doing’ to Wisconsin what Raygun ‘did’ to California,
