Michael Reagan: CBS Portrays President as Foul-mouthed Buffoon The upcoming CBS miniseries on President Ronald Reagan portrays him as a foul-mouthed buffoon who repeatedly used profanity - behavior he never exhibited in real life, his son Michael said Thursday. "It's horrendous, it's absolutely horrendous," Michael Reagan complained after viewing eight minutes' worth of excerpts of the film, which stars James Brolin, husband of Reagan-hater Barbra Streisand, as the 40th president. "They paint my father as a buffoon," the former first son-turned radio host told fellow talker Sean Hannity. "They also have my dad taking God's name in vain in an angry, angry way. ... They have him calling another person in anger an S.O.B." "I've never seen my Dad that angry and I've never heard him use the 'G-D' word in my life," Reagan complained. "They dislike my father, and you can see that," he said. "They actually infer that Alzheimer's was setting in at the time the whole thing was going on with Ollie North and Iran-Contra - which is absurd." The CBS film is even harder on former first lady Nancy Reagan, Michael Reagan revealed. "All the bad things you've heard about Nancy - I mean, this show just hates her - absolutely hates her," he told Hannity. Reagan called CBS's portrayal of Mrs. Reagan "obscene." The former first son said he talked to Mrs. Reagan about the excerpts Wednesday night, saying, "Of course she's upset about it - we're all upset about it." "The eight minutes' worth of clips that I saw [showed] Nancy as the head of the government and Dad was just the buffoon going along for the ride, with everybody laughing at him," Reagan said. "It is so sad." Reagan said he sent a copy of the clips he viewed to the former first lady.
