Interesting. I mean it really was bizarre....picking up a hardcover book by an author with a reasonable CV but with *nothing* on the flyleaf......no reviews, no scratch-my-back-I'll-scratch-yours blurbs...

The week of Reagan's funeral procession was indeed remarkable. All of the media outlets including NPR got into this bizarre week-long Beatification of Saint Ron. If you had just landed from another planet, you might reach the conclusion that Reagan was a great figure in history instead of a lame-brained actor. Go figure.
