"Yes, Obama Did Insult Nancy Reagan At His First Press Conference"

On Nov. 7, 2008, at his very first press conference after winning the election, President-elect Obama cracked a nasty joke at Nancy Reagan’s expense, referring to stories that she consulted an astrologer in the White House.

Obama was answering a question from a journalist who had asked him whether he had spoken to any of his predecessors. Obama’s flippant, contemptuous response is recorded in the transcript of the event:

QUESTION: Thank you for asking. Here’s my question. I’m wondering what you’re doing to get ready. Have you spoke to any living ex-presidents, what books you might be reading?…
OBAMA: … In terms of speaking to former presidents, I have spoken to all of them that are living. Obviously, President Clinton — I didn’t want to get into a Nancy Reagan thing about, you know, doing any seances. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/03/08/flashback-obama-insulted-nancy-reagan-in-first-news-conference/

And, you might ask, why did Obama make such an arrogant statement? The easy answer is because he's a horses patoot.
