I voted Bonfire because discussing the life of Ronald Reagan isnt the same thing as expressing political opinions.
Just because he was a politician (among other things) doent mean that any discussion referencing him needs to go where political discussions go.

He was a man.

Depends on the nature of the post. If it is to say farewell or post informative sites to honor a great man then Bonfire. If it's for all the other worthless meaningless crap you all debate pointlessly back and forth then the Speakers Corner.

Man, Slug, you spend a great deal of time worrying about the Moderator's job. Relax and let them do theirs.

I voted speakers corner, because there are some who can't just say "he was a good guy, sorry bout Nancy's loss", but have to put in their own political opinions, liberal or conservative. While a discussion may start out as a "sorry he's gone" thread, it won't stay that way, no matter where its posted, so it should probably be in speakers corner to begin with.

We are enjoying the website. Take a gander at your most voted for option in this poll. Maybe that's a sign.

Guys . . . don't argue at the Bonfire about politics. We have a special place for that.

I started the thread in speakers' corner just to let folks know what was up. Now that he has passed; it would probably be good to close it and open a memorial in either forum and your standard ass-ragging can go on in another.

perhaps we should petition HH for a forum to argue about which forum an argument belongs in?

Nawww, I have a -much- better idea.

When making a post, put it in the Forum in which it best matches the description of the Forum.

If one of the Moderators feels it doesn't belong there, he or she will put it where -they- think it belongs.

If you think a thread is in the wrong Forum and it -really, really, really- bugs you, drop a note to one of the Moderators of that particular Forum and then -- let it go.

I'm just being picky, but I wonder how many years a man has to be President before people will spell his name correctly. This isn't the first time I've seen this on the forums.

Hi Skymama

Kennedy, Nixon (tricky dicky), Clinton (slick willie), Bush (GW), Johnson (LBJ) Ford are easy even for us barefoot toothless Hill Billies, Ike aka Eisenhower (sp?) is a little harder.

Regan, Raegon, is a lot harder to spell correctly nothing personnel to the ex pres. Not sure what a spell checker would come up with.

I voted STFU, but that has nothing to do with the "Regan" post as such .

Nor with you either, Slug.

Depends what you say about him. If it's "RIP" then bonfire. If it's "He was Republican and I love/hate him because of it" then Speaker's.

Seems obvious to me, but of course, I'm a friggin genius.

And almost everyone else. You always get a few that like to find controversy in everything.

Reagan's value as a president is evident by the hatred spewed at him by the left.

People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

If we were talking about Ronald Reagan the actor I would say Bonfire.
~~Honoring a great man.
But... we are talking about Ronald Reagan the former president whom many would feel very differently.
If it was Bush Sr. I'd say bonfire,(he seems to dig jumping out of planes)
Reagan gets the speakers corner
