Isolation Thought
President Reagan is lying in state as I write this. I was zipping through the dial to watch the coverage of the procession. My God, NBC had Bob Dole as a commentator. This was the man who was so weepy at Nixon's funeral. Remember "God bless Richard Nixon." And President Ford was asked a question and gave an unrelated answer. Look for him to go quickly. CBS was pretty strong. I didn't see too much of Fox or CNN or ABC. MSNBC had a frightening moment during Dick Cheney's eulogy. You could see Pat Buchanan and Chris Matthews superimposed on the screen. Thank God, they weren't on there having a pop or two or smoking, waiting for the state funeral to conclude. It looks like Nancy Reagan has aged about 10 years since her cell stem speech a month ago.

Bradshaw blows his CNBC gig, because he did a Nazi salute during a wrestling match in Germany. I have actually heard good things about his financial book. Smart guy, dumb move.

Did you get to see the part of the coverage where women were told to remove their shoes and run for their lives?
