"Add Reagan (Feb. 6th) in to 'President's Day' "

About ten years ago I published an online magazine, with the help of several like-minded friends who were writers, web experts and so on. We called it "THE DAILY WAR" and it was basically a political piece from a CHRISTIAN perspective. We started it shortly after Obama was inaugurated for his first term and it lasted about a year...the "Daily War" was against HIM and his godless policies, you see.

Our audience was slowly building to 50k and many LOVED the monthly mag, but internal problems "sank" us. It was never the same after MY dad died and my computer person's dad ALSO died within a month of each other (late 2009.) What you see above is the "cover" of one of our last "issues."

And to be fair, many (Christians) did NOT love our mag...they were so hung up on approving everything Obama did to try to prove they weren't racists, they were SILENT about his sins and wanted US to be silent, ALSO.  There will always be those hampered by "the fear of man which brings a snare," what can I say?? At that point, after we folded, I got into writing and self-publishing books...I'm working hard now on #15.

Anyway, IN that issue from 2010, I made the case that "President's Day" should include RONALD REAGAN'S birthday (Feb. 6th) as well as LINCOLN'S (Feb. 12th) and WASHINGTON'S (Feb. 22nd.) I absolutely ADORED Reagan...if you read the upper left hand corner of the cover in the photo above, you can see the slogan we thought up!! And I still think Reagan's BD should be bundled with the others, even ten years later. Why?? Well I do NOT like "bundling" per se....I'm old enough to recall when Lincoln's birthday and Washington's were separated. I loved it because we got TWO days off from school in February (I hated school) and ONE of those, the 12th, was MY birthday!! But those days are long gone....now we celebrate Lincoln AND Washington together (and some even celebrate ALL Presidents, good AND bad ones, on "President's Day".) And let's face it, the way things are going Reagan will NEVER get his own, separate holiday unless he IS bundled in with Abe and George.

Add Ronald Wilson Reagan, our 40th President, in to President's Day, I say!! I said it THEN and I say it NOW, and I don't care if I'm the ONLY one who says it. He's right up there with the OTHER greats, in my opinion.
