Here’s the original February 7, 2011 Time magazine cover with Barack Obama “hearting” Ronald Reagan:

The cover’s surprising flip-side reveals *gasp* Reagan’s true feelings on Obama, discovered by iOwnTheWorld and BigFurHat/IronyCurtain.

Coming soon… Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” played backwards reveals a gravelly voice asking, “Where’s the birth certificate?”

From Ron Futrell at Big Journalism, The Real Time Magazine Cover:

So that’s why Reagan had his arm around Obama’s shoulder.

The effort to rebuild the Cold Hearted Social Engineer’s reputation is in full swing by the activist old media. They will do whatever they can, however they have to do it, to make sure that their Dear Leader gets reelected—even compare him to one of their most hated Presidents ever, the Crazy Cowboy with his finger on the nuclear switch who was going to destroy the world (some of us still remember what they said in the 80’s.)

From Time, Obama’s Reagan Bromance — Admiring the Gipper’s Vision:

Obama’s affection for Reagan’s political style carries with it a clear self-interest. White House aides gaze fondly at the arc of the Reagan presidency in part because they pray Obama’s will mirror it. Both men entered office in wave elections in which the political center made a historic shift. Both faced deep economic downturns with spiking unemployment in their first term. Both relied heavily on the power of oratory. “Our hope,” admits Gibbs, “is the story ends the same way.”

Update: The Camp of the Saints has yet another alternative Time cover…
