All the world's a stage and we mere extras ...
We stand by the roadside and cheer as a funeral goes by. We wave our flags like football fans doing the "wave"... We shed a tear - as the camera zooms in - to show our sympathy is real. We salute as the military procession goes by. We applaud and we feel better. We forget reality when we are given a small part in the play. The play becomes our reality. The truth becomes invisible as we gather in the small circle on the stage.

Reagan will be nominated for an Oscar. It was a week-long movie. It was scripted.

3. I saw something really bizarre during the last day of Reagan-la-Palooza
As the plane taking him to Ca was about to take off the camera shot panned out to show the crowd standing and watching. Some Blond family right in the front all turned around smiling to have their picture taken with the plane in the background.
