The only reason he got to stay in office is that the American people, and probably rightly so, loathe the kind of counter politiking that was going on at the time, and were a little antsy about replacing the Prez in such a manner. Instability is what they feared, but nobody respected the guy, NOBODY, except drooling, partisan stumps.
Perhaps protocol demands that he, as an ex-Prez, be invited to speak or at the very least be in attendance, but he's a dishonorable man, and everywhere he goes that looms large, it looms loud.
Who can blame Mrs. Reagan if she doesn't want to sully this last bit of time that President Reagan remains in the realm above ground. If Clinton had any decency, he would shut up and go away. But that's a pipe dream, because he doesn't get it, he never got it, and I'd be willing to bet that he never will.
Superb stuff.
