ronald reagan close to death.
 

Hollywood sources tell LA Weekly columnist Nikki Finke that former President Ronald Reagan's medical condition has suddenly worsened. "He really took a downslide today," the insider told Finke Friday evening. "Doctors are at the house. Things aren't good." At the start of the day, several news organizations chased down a rumor that the ex-president had died, but it wasn't true... Family members gathered at the Reagan's Bel Air home late Friday...

sad news...let's hope he pulls through.

I used to like Reagan and I guess I still kind of do. But he's probably better off dead instead of being a drooling imbecile.

to bad it ain't Bush :ak47:

Agreed.

i'll second that.

This sucks, reagan is one of the good guys.

isnt he like 90something?

I can see it now

The United States of Ronald Reagan

I'd say so too. Unlike Bush, Reagan wasn't stupid. You may or may not have agreed with him but you could respect the fact that whatever he did had some thought behind it. Bush, well, he's just fucking retarded.

oh man... 24/7 on CNN for 2 weeks...

hundreads of thousands people on the street saying their last goodbye...

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

It's a sad to think that the guy probably doesn't even know he was ever president of the US.

:mutters something under breath:

Why? He's old and has alzheimers. Let's hope he dies peacefully and without pain.

Even when he was!

Dementia is a brain disorder that seriously affects a person's ability to carry out daily activities. The most common form of dementia among older people is Alzheimer's disease (AD), which involves the parts of the brain that control thought, memory, and language. Although scientists are learning more every day, right now they still do not know what causes AD, and there is no cure.

Scientists think that as many as 4.5 million Americans suffer from AD. The disease usually begins after age 60, and risk goes up with age. While younger people also may get AD, it is much less common. About 5 percent of men and women ages 65 to 74 have AD, and nearly half of those age 85 and older may have the disease. It is important to note, however, that AD is not a normal part of aging.

I don't know what's worse..wishing him dead so it would end his misery...or wishing he'll live longer and be miserable longer.

Well I kind of like him so don't get me wrong!!!

having Alzheimer's is much worse than death, it's cruel to keep people alive when they are no longer themselves and have no reasonable hope of every getting better.

i can only imagine the horror show that has gone on inside that home for the last 10 years. by now Nancy Reagan probably doesn't even remember her husband as he was when he was president.

this is sad to say, but i hope he goes. i wish he would have gone long ago, it must be soo hard on his wife to see him in that state. I hope it never happens to be, a quick death is something i think everyone wishes for themselves

When he kicks it, you can be sure that Bushco and the Republicans will use it as a rallying cry for the upcoming election.

When he does die that is when some kind of terrible shit will come out from this administration. (something like the prison videos)

Then after all the hoopla about how great RR was, the reporters will say whatever is disclosed during that time is OLD news move along.

Welcome to the USRR :1orglaugh

wow thats sad news :(

To bad movies all sucked in his day. He could have been a decent Arnold.

I hope if he passes it's painless and in his sleep. :(

Damn, hope he pulls through and makes it alright. But sometimes death is the best thing!

jDoG

i dont know, too. like, i dont want him to die, but if hes living like a fucking veggie, then what is the point?

shit. how sad. i like him, too.

Reagan was a conservative idiot. Nancy ran the fucking show anyway.

And all that "Just say no to drugs" bullshit. The freak was a hardcore Bible basher.

Absolutely sickening.

The sooner that old bastard kicks the bucket the better.

Yeah I read this on drudge a few hours ago...its a shame. I doubt he'll make it through the next couple of days :(

Born in Feb of 1911.

sad news :(

Reagan is/was an exraordinary man.

February 6th... my birthday :)

why is it so sad?

some of us have watched our own family member die slower than this. while i can understand slight sympathy for the dying, he has lived his life and its his time.

there is nothing sad about dying, its just a new life those that experience it dont fear it, nor shall i.

:waaaaahh
