Kerry could have paid respect to Ronald Reagan at any time during his twenty years in the Senate. He did just the opposite, portraying our President as a moron and a liar, who presided over a "decade of greed", when the "rich got richer and the poor got poorer."
He should just keep quiet now. Or, if he wants to truly pay "his respects", wait in line with everyone else. Yes, Arnold was given special treatment; but, then, he was a Reagan supporter, never slandering our President's good name.
Arnold is also the California governor, and this viewing was specifically for President Reagan's friends per his stated request. Arnold was also INVITED by Nancy Reagan, and he and Maria comported themselves w/dignity, then left. They did not give thumbs up when they left.
