We could all learn so much from this elegant and gracious lady. You might recall that
John Hinckley was a seriously deranged young man who shot President Reagan in the
early 1980's. Hinckley was absolutely obsessed with movie star Jodie Foster, and, in
his twisted mind, loved Jodie to the point that to make himself well known to her, he
attempted to assassinate President Reagan. There is speculation Hinckley may soon be released as having
been rehabilitated. Consequently, you will appreciate thefollowing letter from Nancy Reagan to
John Hinckley.
To: John Hinckley
From: Mrs. Nancy Reagan
My family and I wanted to drop you a short note to tell
you how pleased we are with the great strides you are making in your
recovery. In our country's spirit of understanding and forgiveness, we
want you to know that we bear no grudge against you for shooting
President Reagan. We are fully aware that mental stress and pain could
have driven you to such an act of desperation. We are confident that
you will soon make a complete recovery and return to your family to
join the world again as a healthy and productive man.
Best wishes,
Nancy Reagan & Family
P.S. While you have been incarcerated, Barack Obama has
been banging Jodie Foster like a screen door in a tornado. You might
want to look into that.
