I remember where I was when I first got the news about this.
I remember one female reporter asked President Reagan at his news conference after the event, “Did you know it was going to blow up”?
Think about that question. Her hatred of Reagan and conservatives was so great that she basically accused him of having it blown up.
It is sad that I had to do a search for this on FR and that it only has 6 replies...I guess people are too busy throwing feces at each other.
