His inbox must be flooded with media invites since his funeral oratory.

Saw this also, Ron is in major Bush Bashing mode.
He has used his Republican father's name to get TV jobs.
Since he hates Republicans why doesn't he change his name
and stand on his own two feet.
From a 2002 press release....
Basic-cable's Animal Planet channel sent out a single sheet that begins, "Ron Reagan joins Miss America 1993 Leanza Cornett and canine expert Lee Arnold to cover the AKC/Eukanuba American Dog Classic," which is later referred to as a "high-profile dog show." Animal Planet begins coverage Feb. 2.
Dog show commentator? Is this as far as the son of a two-term President has been able to climb in his life?
What a loser.
I think we are going to have a public battle between him and the good adopted son, Michael.
For the show I hope Ronnie-Boy is lookin' "pretty-in-pink."
Why does he need to go on Dateline? I thought he was homosexual.
I guess intelligence and integrity skip a generation. I tell you, what irritated me the most was the ear story. It just seemed a little too self absorbed to me, just the whole vibe of how he was telling it. Maybe he should go back to ballet if he wants the spotlight so much.
That's funny ... I've barely heard the media discuss it
Hint to Little Ronny ... your comment wasn't that big of a deal .. just proved how petty you are
Ronald Prescott Reagan (born May 20, 1958), usually known as Ron Reagan, is the son of the late President Ronald Reagan and Nancy Reagan.
Reagan grew up in Los Angeles and then Sacramento, while his father was Governor of California from 1967 to 1975. He attended Yale University but dropped out in 1976 after one semester. At this time his father was running for President against incumbent Gerald Ford, and Reagan disliked the attention he received at Yale. He joined the Joffrey Ballet in pursuit of what he said was a lifelong dream to become a ballet dancer.
Ronald Reagan apparently found it embarrassing that his son was a ballet dancer. Time magazine wrote in 1980: "It is widely known that Ron's parents have not managed to see a single ballet performance of their son, who is clearly very good, having been selected to the Joffrey second company, and is their son nonetheless. Ron talks of his parents with much affection. But these absences are strange and go back a ways."
Reagan now lives in Seattle with his wife, Doria, a psychologist who he married in 1980. He has worked in recent years as a magazine journalist, and has hosted talk shows on cable TV networks such as the Animal Planet network. Reagan serves on the board of the Creative Coalition, an organization founded in 1989 by a group including Susan Sarandon and Christopher Reeve to politically mobilize entertainers and artists, generally for liberal causes.
Reagan has always been a political liberal, although he has never considered a political career. He is also reported to be an atheist, although his speech at his father's funeral in June 2004 suggested that he believes in an afterlife. He is known to have dissented from some of his father's policies and actions, but his views have only become widely known in recent years, when he has become more outspoken in his hostility to President George W. Bush.
In an April 2003 interview, Reagan was scathingly critical of Bush. "The Bush people have no right to speak for my father, particularly because of the position he's in now," he said. "Yes, some of the current policies are an extension of the '80s. But the overall thrust of this administration is not my father's - these people are overly reaching, overly aggressive, overly secretive, and just plain corrupt. I don't trust these people."
He also strongly opposed the Bush administration's decision to invade Iraq. "Nine-11 gave the Bush people carte blanche to carry out their extreme agenda - and they didn't hesitate for a moment to use it," Reagan said. "By 9/12 Rumsfeld was saying, 'Let's hit Iraq.' They've used the war on terror to justify everything from tax cuts to Alaska oil drilling."
He has a sister Patti Davis, five and a half years his senior. His two half siblings, Maureen Reagan and Michael Reagan originated from his father's first marriage.
Ronald Prescott Reagan is not a junior. The Gipper had the good sense not to make that mistake.
Interviewed by Chris Matthews, no less. Tell me, has Hissy Pissy Chrissy ever been on Dateline before?
Watch and listen as he tip toes through the tulips...
Could the motives of those liberals at Dateline be any more transparent?
Swan Flake should crawl back under his tutu.
I saw a bit piece on Brokaw this evening as I was leaving work. Ron Jr said that he was upset that Bush was wrapping himself around the Reagan name to help justify the war. He said this is Bush's war, and GW should leave his Dad's name out of the justification. (Or something similar.) I went, huh? Of course Brokaw could hardly contain himself. Brokaw continued that we would see more of the interview tomorrow on Today.
Scarborough is going to show a clip of the remarks Ron Reagan made on his show tonight.
Just what were his remarks? I was unable to catch that televised portion, I was working.
:)
What controversy was that?
