In dutch to Bonzo
Having some extra time on their hands after doing zip about healthcare, the Utah House has passed a bill calling for a "Ronald Reagan Day."
With it's characteristic foresight, the House passed the proposal yesterday, on the Gipper's birthday. Oops. Because the bill still needs to be approved by the Senate and signed by the Guv, we can't party like it's 1911 for at least a full year.
How important to Utah is Dutch Reagan? Rep. Chris Herrod says he named his kids Reagan (How do they know who he's yelling at?). Heck, Herrod says, he wouldn't have met his Russian-born wife if it wasn't for Ronnie.
Word on the Hill is the Democrats are preparing a counter bill, to declare a holiday honoring the other "Great Communicator" who choreographed day-to-day behavior in the House.
As yet, Hallmark has expressed little interest in Bonzo Day greeting cards.

If Utah passes a RR Day, I'm wearing my Che Guevara T-shirt on that holy day!
Smacks of politics, don't you think? We've got President's day for God's sake! Fine, make an RR Day, as long as we can have an Ich Bin Ein Jelly Doughnut Day!
