I wish Obama had the power to strip Reagan's name from DCA.

Can you fucking imagine the Republican response to that?

 

[Clefargle]

Boom.gif

 

[B-Dubs]

Yep. No doubt 5 years down the road there will be nearly Bill Clinton-level nostalgia for Obama.

5? That seems too long to me. We're gonna miss him like 20 minutes into the next president's term, depending on who wins.

 

[Hazmat]

Not everyone in Alabama is that stupid...

But the people not included in that statement are.

Sorry, had to pick a place to pick on. I'm from Texas.

 

[Aselith]

I love reading butthurt republican comments on this. Keep on winning Obama.

We all know he wouldn't have done it if it was a Democrat

 

[Snake]

Eagerly awaiting the moment when a notable Republican says that President McKinley has been assassinated for a second time.

5? That seems too long to me. We're gonna miss him like 20 minutes into the next president's term, depending on who wins.

Maybe 2. We may miss him soon after he is out of office, but it takes societies considerably longer to realize they were living in a golden age.

 

[Omega]

Can't America keep the man as President for say...
Another 10 years or so?

Nope. We must unleash Trump/Hogan on the world

 

[Operations]

Eagerly awaiting the moment when a notable Republican says that President McKinley has been assassinated for a second time.

lmao, wouldn't surprise me. Predictable Republican scum.

My favorite response thus far?

Another “In Yo Face, Whitey!” moment from the Kenyan dictator.

*giggle*

OMG

 

[Valhelm]

Seeing as McKinley himself never apparently even went to the mountain, it's only natural that it should be renamed back to it's real name of Denali

There's no such thing as a real name. The mountain likely had dozens of names from the dozens of cultures who inhabited central Alaska before the Koyukon Native Americans.

Regardless, this is a nice gesture. I'm glad that the mountain's legal name is being changed.

 

[The Lone Courier]

Should have rolled up in this.

 

[BertramCooper]

President Walker will rechristen it as Mt. Reagan in a couple of years, so enjoy it while it lasts.

 

[Wanda/Wander]

Came to the thread for this gif. Leave satisfied.

 

[No Love]

He just keeps getting away with it!! When will we stand up to this dictator for our rights?

 

[HK-47]

President Walker will rechristen it as Mt. Reagan in a couple of years, so enjoy it while it lasts.

It his birthday or his anniversary where he eats Reagan's favorite foods like some massive fanboy?

 

[ThisGuy]

Being an Ohioan, this truly ruined my day. A mountain I've never seen, nor thought about in years will sorely be missed.

Damn that man and his lack of respect for cultural history!

 

[Barkley's Justice]

Like the rims.

 

[Chris R]

Seeing some of the local responses here are great.

"Well it's about time he's done a single good thing, but he shouldn't waste the taxpayers money coming up to Alaska for no reason, stay away Obummer!!!1"

"Don't be surprised if it's renamed Mt. Obama in 60 years because he visited Alaska...just sayin'!"

lol

 

[Permanently A]

Denali!? That sounds vaguely African. I knew it guys. I knew he was really born in Kenya! I TOLD YOU

From earlier:





Murkowski is happy:

like isn't really the only important part of mckinley's lasting legacy the fact he was assassinated so that TR could become president

 

[The Albatross]

I love reading butthurt republican comments on this. Keep on winning Obama.

So odd because this was led by Republicans in the senate

 

[Darkgran]

Cant wait to see the conservative meltdown over this.

I will update when news starts rolling in,,

 

[Darknight]

I love when he takes reasonable republican ideas, then they suddenly become bad ideas.

 

[Rebel Leader]

NVm is was stewart

Looking through the thread might help.

 

[tearsintherain]

Obama just caving in to the powerful car lobby. Whats next, Mt. Rushmore renamed The Dorito Dome???

 

[Stinkles]

Fucking map industry lobbyists warping the constitution again.

Thanks TomTom.

 

[Winter John]

I love when he takes reasonable republican ideas, then they suddenly become bad ideas.

I know, it's ironic watching Democrats celebrate a man who owes his entire Foreign policy to George Bush

 

[The Auxiliary]

I remember watching a Daily Show segment about this. Nice to hear that the mountain will finally, officially, have it's real name back.

 

[neogaffer1]

what?

 

[giga]

Good. Fuck Ohio.

 

[Gnome Scat]

Good.

 

[Hellwarden]

But what about President McKinley, and his long lasting legacy on America!?

Everyone's favorite President!

 

[smokeandmirrors]

Such a great president I bet a majority of people don't know he was assassinated.

 

[Toxi]

But what about President McKinley, and his long lasting legacy on America!?

Everyone's favorite President!

When I told my friend that Denali had been renamed to McKinley after the President, her first word was "Who?"

 

[moist]

This makes me incredibly happy, McKinley had fuck all to do with anything in Alaska.

 

[neogaffer1]

should've named it mt seward

 

[FStop7]

Good call. It's the indigenous name and it's what a lot of people in Alaska refer to it as, anyway. And it sounds cooler, too.

 

[jerry1594]

like isn't really the only important part of mckinley's lasting legacy the fact he was assassinated so that TR could become president

He approved the annexation of Hawaii and did the Spanish American War and the US gained Spanish colonies under his administration.

 

[Chris R]

should've named it mt seward

Seward already has a city and a peninsula named for him.

 

[shintoki]

In response, Ohio shall name its highest peak after McKinley. All 300ft above sea level

 

[Aiustis]

McKinley was a great president. As a Ohio resident this cuts me deep.

 

[Socreges]

It was named after him while he was a candidate? Not even to honour him after he was president?

 

[Hellwarden]

It was named after him while he was a candidate? Not even to honour him after he was president?

I read that it was named after him just as he won the presidency.

Could be wrong though.

 

[CTLance]

Denali. No longer just a river in Egypt.

Right, guys?

...guys?

Spoiler

I am sorry. Good on Obama for righting some wrongs. Nice.

 

[Korey]

Queue all the GOP candidates scrambling to promise to rename it back if they become President.
