The op is lucky my Grandpa went to his grave years ago. Grandpa would have made me df them, and then he'd shoot them down in cold blood for broadcasting the words of Satan Incarnate, aka FDR.

I wish I'd had the sense to tape Grandpa's rant's about FDR. They were a force of nature like a hurricane or tornado, you got out of the way or were ground into submission. The guy who runs this one would have had a blast mixing Grandpa in with FDR.

My dad was a bagboy in my great grandfather's grocery store during the Truman years. (I would later be employed in the same position at a different grocer during the Reagan era, but that that time our title was upgraded to "courtesy clerk.") Anyway, one of the other employees, maybe the butcher, was a Republican who, unfortunately for him, looked a bit like Harry S. I'm told that the day someone observed this to him was a day he spent the rest brooding over it.

I've never seen anyone who looked even passingly like Ronald Reagan.
