Liberal lover Brian Lamb is on C-span now, taking phone calls. Someone asked about Clinton's not speaking at the funeral, considering that we're about to endure weeks of 24/7 flogging of his book, so why should Clinton even think of thrusting himself into Reagan's funeral, and Lamb insisted that he hadn't heard one word that Clinton was upset or angry. Why don't I think Lamb is telling the truth???
Lamb said the story was "unsourced," which is true. Also that Clinton himself hasn't made any on the record expression of disappointment.
I personally believe that Clinton expressed disappointment and maybe even anger to an aide, and "requested" (maybe by not saying "keep this private") that the expression be floated in the press. Clinton is a small man, with a very inflated ego.
