I agree, how refreshing to have a president with a sense of humor, that doesn't involve being the dictator.

And of course if he hadn't all of the right wingnuts would be screaming about he talks to dead presidents.

It's really sad that the republican party is in such shambles that the only person they have to feel good about is Recession Reagan. Who also starved out the middle class as Bush has done.

Trickle Down Economics is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Reagan was the master communicator, he could lie with the best of them, the man was an ACTOR and his successful Presidency was an ACT

I heard the sound clip - it was a very inoffensive thing that he said - and it shows how classy he is to apologize...

Funny, never heard Nancy apologize for how her husband began the 28 year 'war on the middle class'...

Exactly. I'm sure she doesn't sit around watching every press conference, and probably didn't even know it happened. I can just picture the phone call now, sweet old Nancy, saying "That's OK dear, bless your heart for calling".

Much ado about nothing, all involved have been involved in politics more than long enough to have grown a thick skin.

A very short -- 19 minute press conference and mocking an ill elderly woman who is the best he can do?

And why did he completely forget about all those visits Eleanor made to Hillary? I'm sure even Hillary felt snubbed that he totally forgot about those. Hillary was quite proud of those visits.
