Humorous Quotes about
Ronald Reagan / Reaganomics / Reagan Administration

Ronald Reagan came from show business. His idea of how the government should help the homeless was like your agent. "We'll try to get you work. But don't bug us about it." ~ Bill Maher (Comic Relief)

The Governor has no presidential aspirations. In fact he just made a tour of 43 states just to tell them he's not running for anything. ~ Bob Hope (Dean Martin's Celebrity Roasts)

Did you see where President Reagan finally got a hearing aid? People have been telling him to get one for years, but he couldn't hear them. ~ Bob Hope (Don't Shoot, It's only me)

Not that they were that anxious to see Ronnie as President; they were afraid if he didn't get elected, he'd go back to acting. ~ Bob Hope (Don't Shoot, It's only me)

After the 1984 Summer Olympics, Reagan wanted to add the U.S. volleyball team to his Cabinet. He figured if they can't shove his programs down Congress’ throat, nobody can. ~ Bob Hope (Confessions of a Hooker)

I knew the President would run for reelection in 1984. Why not? Actors love sequels . . . and returns. ~ Bob Hope (Confessions of a Hooker)

The story of the eighties will be the story of the Reagan administration and the many men and women who served in it, some of whom are already out on parole. ~ Dave Barry (Dave Barry Slept Here)

Sensitive Chat...
The issue we are reluctant to talk about is even more sensitive (ha ha!) than condoms. The issue – and I will try to be tasteful here – is that sometimes it seems like maybe the president of the United States (Ronald Reagan) is kind of d**b. If you get what I mean. What I mean is, I am not totally confident that the president would get what I mean, unless several aides explained it to him. And even then, he might forget.
Dave Barry (Dave Barry's Greatest Hits)

Another foreign-policy triumph for Reagan was his 1984 visit to China, where he met for more than three hours with Mao Zedong before realizing that Mao was dead. ~ Dave Barry (Dave Barry Slept Here)

Here’s a man who was twice elected to the most powerful position on Earth despite needing a TelePrompTer to correctly identify what year it was. ~ Dave Barry (Dave Barry Turns 40)

Remember how he handled the Iran-contra Never Ending Scandal from Hell? He went on national television, the President of the United States, and said it wasn’t his fault, because he was not aware, at the time, of what his foreign policy was. ~ Dave Barry (Dave Barry Turns 40)

I really haven't seen this many people in one place since they took group photographs of all the criminals and lawbreakers in the Ronald Reagan administration. ~ George Carlin

Ronald Regan doesn’t dye his hair – he’s just prematurely orange. ~ Gerald Ford

A triumph of the embalmer’s art. ~ Gore Vidal

Ask him the time, and he’ll tell you how the watch was made. ~ Jane Wyman, (former wife of Ronald Reagan)

Foreign Policy...
The president (Ronald Reagan), apparently, was so totally unaware of where his foreign policy was that he had to appoint a distinguished commission to help him locate it, and when the commissioners called him in to testify, he told them, essentially, that he couldn’t remember what it looked like. Now, if Richard Nixon had claimed something like that you would at least have had the comfort of knowing he was lying. You could trust Nixon that way. But with this president, you have this nagging feeling that he’s telling the truth.
Dave Barry (Dave Barry's Greatest Hits)

Reaganomics, that makes sense to me. It means if you don’t have enough money, it’s just because poor people are hoarding it. ~ Kevin Rooney

“Hail to the Chief” was played, and the President got up and made a gracious opening remark. “I’ve been in this office for six years, and yet every time I hear that music, I turn around wondering who they’re playing it for.” ~ Kirk Douglas (The Ragman's Son)

For those of you who don't understand Reaganomics, it's based on the principle that the rich and the poor will get the same amount of ice. In Reaganomics, however, the poor get all of theirs in winter. ~ Morris K. Udall

It was sinful that Ronald Reagan ever became president. Most of the time he was an actor reading his own lines, who didn’t understand his own programs. But let me give him his due. He would have made a hell of a king. ~ Tip O’Neil
