More I know of 666 Cloud Drive (home # & # in R.W.R) the more I loathe them,their legacy.Ironic 1st act, cut funding for what he died of.Karma.Compassionate conservative is an oxymoron. Trickle down theory is still valid in inbred circles. Gore Vidal said the sweetest words are "I told you so." I said the day he got elected what would happen 2 this USA. I was correct. Get no comfort on that, only the Schadenfreude. Nancy's alone/no friends/no power relic.

Having had AIDS for 38 years (tested in 1985 but was able to go back as far as 1977), I have lived through the hell and the very few positives (like seeing ho we took care of ourtogether). I am here to say that any justification of what came out of (or more accuratly did not come out of) the Reagan years and AIDS, is total bullshit. I have no tolerance for anything being said about the Reagans and AIDS other than that they were complicit to the murdering of ultimitely millions of people. Period

when I saw this article I facebook Nancy Regan and without cursing them gave them a piece of my mind. rock hudson was the reagans friend. They did nothing to help aids. She is responsible for the deaths and should be brought to justice even at her age.

Definitive proof of the UGLINESS that pervades a world where there will always be expendableâ??unwanted & undesirable members of society. In the U.S. & other Western societies of understanding tolerance, HIV has morphed into a treatable & manageable condition. The U.S. State Department Office of American Citizens Services and Crisis Management (ACS) administers a Consular Information Program, which informs the public of contemporary "conditions". CDC West African travel advisories, "Hmm?"

Alzheimer's was too good for this bastard. Not only did he feel that AIDS was killing all the "right" people, but he set us on the course that led to the income inequality we have now. Hated him as California Governor, as POTUS, and in death. His son Ron, isn't gay, but he's a liberal Democrat. I hope that little fact was a thorn in Ronnie's side.

This article is very disturbing as I had a different feeling of the Reagan's at that time and to hear this makes me sick. I thought their son was gay? I feel so sorry to Rock Hudson and his loved ones. Elizabeth Taylor did so much for Rock, and must have been shocked when this came out. My views towards the Reagans have changed forever. Rock did not get his fair share as he tried so desperately to stay alive. God Bless Him.

I so agree with Jerry Burton and especially BDBOHIO. I watched helplessly as so many suffered and died around me in the early 80's and on. Thankfully, Wichita and the world benefitted from the incredible Dr Donna Sweet! One of my most cherished passages, 1 Corinthians 3, 9-11, paraphrased, Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God shall destroy him. A wrath Ron and Nancy so deservedly earned, millions of times over.

It's always time for Nancy to apoligize to the HIV and gay community to have ignored the thousand of people dying from a disease that she and her husband wanted nothing to do with...
