Nancy's letter to Hinkley
You probably 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 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 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.
