First Reagan now Thatcher. Could something have been put in their water?

I doubt it's a conspiracy. So many have it. My grandmother had it before she passed away.

Wait.

Both Reagan AND Thatcher "developed" Alzheimers/dementia?

I'M SHOCKED!

The brain needs exercise (e.g. reading, critical thought, statistical analysis, ad infinitum) and once it becomes "set in stone", all is lost, dementia is certain, and one becomes a conservative.

It's sad really, because no one is born a conservative, but one is born with a brain fated towards dementia (e.g. Iraq/WMD/A-Queada/eminent threat, deficit spending, Sean Hannity, Willie Horton, etc.)

Sucks to be you, huh Gunker?

They both drank the koolaid.
