Very true and these were my same thoughts.
I think it was fairly obvious, considering his past body of work, that RR, Jr. was taking a shot at Dubya and maybe even Michael. That being said, it was one line in a beautiful week. This week was vindication of everything we as Republicans stand for. I am willing to let it go.
What I am not willing to let go, is Chris Matthews, Howard Finkelstein and the heinous Pat Buchanan using this line to resume their 24/7 Bush Bash.
That's right. Chris and Howard were both tipped off to what Ron would be doing vis -a vis Bush in his speech. Ron works at MSNBC and I think the tipoff was the reason that Fineman was even there at that point in time. Otherwise, there would be no point, it was so late, the ceremony was already over before he got on the air.
It killed them to have to say the positive an dtrue things about President Reagan and his administration--all week long. So, they had to find a way to twist it to attack GW Bush.
It is interesting that they were in league with Ron Reagan in this, they were clearly tipped off and who know if they did not have some other role.
I am sure we have not seen the last of Ron Reagan commenting on our present president.
