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,
extremely jealous, and in his twisted mind, loved Jodie Foster 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 may appreciate the following letter from
Nancy Reagan to the staff at the mental facility treating Hinckley reports
to have intercepted:

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 fine country's spirit of understanding and forgiveness, we want you to
know there is a nonpartisan consensus of compassion and forgiveness
throughout The Reagan family and I want you to know that no grudge is borne
against you for shooting President Reagan. We, above all, are aware of how
the 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 young 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.


Sincerely

This is great, NEDL.....I sent this around in email after you posted on the other message board. Great responses from both Conservatives AND Liberal friends I have.

Thanks. I found it on a rural board, of all places.

I remember back in '84 getting almost the same thing (no email of course, we just passed photocopies of stuff around work)  but the letter was supposedly written by Ronald Reagan, and it was Mondale and Gary Hart who were humping Jodie Foster. 

 

Boy that Jodie Foster sure gets around, eh?

 

Very funny Nedl.  Gotta love the internet for getting stuff around faster!

 

No wonder the post office is going broke.  I haven't used a whole book of stamps in months.
