Nancy "Mommy" Reagan has checked out, and it's reminded us cats of a recent Interwebs adventure that involved her and another First Lady, Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Back about a year ago, the website Bloomberg Politics fell for a report that Nancy had endorsed Hillary for President. Apparently Mommy, in an interview for a show called "First Ladies in Their Own Words," had said that it was high time for a female POTUS — and that HRC filled the bill.
Bloomberg posted and then swiftly deleted the story, but only after having been caught in a state of supreme suckderdom. Therein lie the perils of cyberspace: Why be a stickler for accuracy when you can have speed?
Anyway, we cats can think of no better way to remember Nancy Reagan than to re-spread that fabulous rumor. After all, just because the story turned out not to be true makes no difference for this election. We cats PURR.
