You know trouble is right around the corner when your best friend tells you to hold his beer!!

I've always considered him a thoroughly detestable man.

He was a scumbag. I used to work at a riverboat casino in Indiana and he would come to the boat a couple of times a year, before Cincinnati opened a casino. He was an old pervert and made rude remarks to many of the female employees. He was a slime ball.

I'm just reporting the news folks...... Back in the 80's when Reagan was President, he had an ad for Nancy's Phone Sex with a Pic of Nancy Reagan...... You dialed the number you got the Whitehouse..... Definately not a class act

Couldn't happen to a better guy.

Here's to a great American. Especially if you're a fan if the first Amendment.

Thanks for taking all that heat, so we could choose for ourselves what is appropriate to view.

Litigated for the ability to see the crotch of naked women so he could sell smut, okay. 

Great American? No.

And the federal government told him no.

And he fought that government so we don't have to.

I'm sure there's something that you find normal that I, and possibly the government find "smutty". Luckily for us, he fought so you can enjoy what you think is normal, and I can enjoy what I like. (I promise you, it's not Hustler)

Its very important that we can make those decisions for ourselves.

To me, that's a great American.

Apparently you never met him. He was an arrogant [BLEEP] that viewed women as pieces of meat. The comments he used to make to my co-workers at the casino were disgusting. These were women who were just trying to earn a living to feed their families and some of the stuff he said was outright sexual harassment. Things were way different back then, so they just had to endure it. I'll always consider him a slime ball.

There is nothing great about exploiting women and men for profit. It is, however, very American.

Sounds like a real [BLEEP]!!!

Maybe if we ask really nice they'll take that right away as well.

He stood for something that's very important.  Maybe the most important.   And he lost for it, and we gained.  All of us, every single American.

I'm not saying top100 or anything.
