CBS's Fantasy: Mrs. Reagan Slaps Patti
NewsMax ^ | 10/24/03 | Limbacher

Posted on 10/24/2003 1:06:37 PM PDT by Tumbleweed_Connection

Part of the sleazy script of CBS's "The Reagans" seen by Matt Drudge shows a scene at the Reagans' house in Pacific Palisades after Ronald Reagan won the presidency.

According to the script, as revealed by Drudge Report today, Nancy Reagan is upstairs in daughter Patti's bedroom while Ronald Reagan is downstairs getting ready to do TV interviews.

Nancy is depicted arguing with 5-year-old Patti, who won't come downstairs.

NANCY: Come on, Patti. They're all set to go.

PATTI: No. I won't. I want to stay up here and play.

Nancy grits her teeth and takes Patti by the wrist.

NANCY: No arguing. We're going down, right now.

PATTI: No! No! No! No! NO! NO!

The script says that Nancy then "reaches out and slaps Patti. Patti reels, holding her cheek. Nancy freezes."

NewsMax.com throws up.

Let them know in no uncertain terms that if they run ads during this movie, you will boycott their products.

If patty was 5 in 1980, that would make her 28ish now. Someone made a mistake.

These liberals have to be getting all of this from somewhere.

More outrage from the outrageous leftwing couple of Striesand/Brolin and the two liberal homosexual producers of the TV movie. Pure trash!

Conservatives and Republicans should contact their local CBS affiliates and tell them they don't want this trash film broadcast in their local market.

Uh Patti wasn't 5 years old when Ronnie kicked Jimmy Carter's behind in 1980.

Don't know if this an error on Limbacher's part or CBS's, but given the way CBS is run these days, IMO, it would be CBS's bias.

Wait a second. The point of this scene is what? A bratty five year old refuses to do what she is told and gets a smack?? So?

I will boycott this just because it is stupid as well as slanderous.

I don't see anything wrong with that because I remember my mother trying to comb my tangled hair when I was 5 years old. Mom sat me on the table and I'm putting up a fuss. She finally got tired of yanking my hair out of my scalp to free the tangles. As a result, she smacked me with the comb on my jaw and yelled for me to hold still. Naturally, I'm crying harder. As a child I didn't understand but now that I'm an adult I understand. Nancy should have whacked her on the other cheek too.

I just checked, if they mean elected governor, Patti Davis was 12 in 1964 when he was elected Governor. Quite a difference between 5 and 12.

I have already written to the General and Sales Managers of several CBS affilliates that due to CBS' vile decision to celebrate its 75th Anniversary by airing a revisionist and left-wing propaganda smear about the Reagans, I and members of my extended family in 7 states will be DELETING each of their CBS affiliates' Ch# from our tv program set listings.

We will therefore not only be boycotting all CBS national programs but also all local news programs and all their advertisers as well.

Here's hoping that CBS' 75th Anniversary will be its LAST!!!

Two questions...
When is this suppose to air and is there any other channels owned by the parent company of CBS??
(Like ABC and Disney)

I want to tell them that I am deleting ALL stations owned by them.

Ronald Reagan was actually elected Governor in 1966, but that still doesn't excuse the CBS bias. The whole thing is a hit piece by CBS, IMO.

Uh, Patti was born in 1952, she would have been 28 in 1980 and old enough to have a 5 year old daughter herself. Nancy was born in 1921, meaning if Patti was 5 in 1980, Nancy would have been 54 years old when she had her.

A lot of deleting, a lot of garbage too.

Nickelodeon, VH1, MTV, TV-Land, Showtime are just a few.

I heard the clips Drudge played today, and I thought a little while ago about that projection thing the dems do all the time. Accuse their foes of their own qualities and actions.

It's not just this Patty scene, but to hear the actress portraying Nancy is a fright to hear. They have written her as a domineering harridan who pushed and prodded her husband. Drudge played clips of "Nancy" hissing/shrieking "NIXXXXXooonnnn" several times and Drudge pointed out how they worked in old Nixon to kick around while they were at it.

It is beyond the worst one could imagine they'd come up with. It has to be heard to be believed.

CBS must pay for this, and dearly.
