I hadn't thought of this:

While the plane flew to Washington, Chris Mathews interviewed Tom Selleck who considered himself good friends with the Reagans. Tom said he filmed some "Just Say No" spots for Nancy, and he and his wife had dinner with them. One most poignant thing: Tom Selleck said he wished the Hollywood community had acknowledged President Reagan's death in some way, he wished he had been honored at the Tony Ceremony on Sunday evening.

A bit later, Mathews interviewed Tim Russert and Tom Brokaw. Brokaw said Reagan was always proud of his acting career, always loved Hollywood, and all his friends there. Brokaw said if Reagan had one regret it was that Hollywood had never acknowledged him for his accomplishments after he gave up acting.

That sort of jolted me...I hadn't thought of it on my own. A Hollywood actor was Governor of California twice, and won in landslides both times. He then became President twice, winning in landslides, and the Hollywood community, so fond of awards, honors, and cermonies has never honored President Reagan. I shouldnt' be shocked, but I am.

Those Hollywood FOBs are such small people!
