Nancy Reagan: Obama Snubbed Me Former first wife also says in an interview she sees Ronald Reagan's ghost

Former First Lady Nancy Reagan said this week that President Barack Obama snubbed her -- and that she still sees the ghost of her late husband Ronald Reagan inside her home.

Nancy Reagan told Vanity Fair that Obama missed an opportunity when she wasn't invited to a March ceremony where Obama said he'd allow comprehensive stem-cell research -- but that the commander in chief later apologized for the oversight.

“I would have gone, and you know I don’t like to travel,” said Reagan, 87, a well-known stem-cell advocate. “Politically it would have been a good thing for him to do.

"Oh, well, nobody’s perfect," she said.

It isn't the first time Obama's insulted the former First Lady -- he cracked a joke in November 2008 about Reagan's reported consultations with astrologers during her time in the White House.

It’s sad. She’s complaining that she didn’t get a public opportunity to help Obama kill millions more helpless, defenseless human beings who happen to be at the embryonic stage of their development.

Nancy thinks she sees Ronnie when she can’t sleep at night. Oh well, if it makes her happy. It’s probably really her conscience keeping her awake, not Ronnie.

Not the classiest move I've heard of; whining about not seein Hussein.

It's like me complaining that the local rap artist doesn't invite me to his house.

Gheeez!

Insincere apology...he’d do it again. He wants to hog the “credit” (this is something deserving credit in his mind) - having Nancy there would suggest someone else fought for it first. It wouldn’t be his sole work if a Republican who fought for the same thing was there. His M.O. is to create the perception that the world is a better place only because of him.

Nancy, since you could see God and Ronnie at any time now, you might want to stop peddling “comprehensive stem cell research”, which is a code word for embryonic stem cell research.

See, God does not approve of killing little human beings for kicks in the lab.

My 15 year old son and I looked at each other when we heard this and he said, “Reagan was right.”

I'm not going to LOL like agrace did but instead ask seriously what your take was on your son's response?

I hate seeing people grow old and senile.

I agree.

I also hate to see younger people making snide remarks about them....it's worse! And I've seen a lot right here!...from people who obviously were not taught to respect their elders.

I knew this was coming when I read or heard (don't remember which, I'm old) the original interview. I said to myself, oh shit, here comes the Nancy Reagan sees ghosts, Nancy talks to Ronnie, Nancy.......yada, yada, yada. This is the second thread regarding such interview and both of them have been seriously taken out of context in an effort to make Nancy Reagan appear to be a mindless loon...........disgusting!

Isn’t Nancy Reagan the first lady who had a spiritualist come into the WH?
