Nancy Reagan: The Tripper

Old people are so cute, and Nancy Reagan was such a class act outside Jessica Nail Salon that we almost didn't notice when she nearly ate pavement. Almost.

17. Calling an adult by their last name is a lost social grace. We teach our children to always use their friends parents last name ...is a sign of respect. Even when the parent says oh thats ok they can call me by my first name...my kids know to kindly decline that invite. Its society thing...ppl dont think its important anymore.

18. Rereading some of the other post ,I was not being disrepectful by referring to , NacnyReagaon, Former First Lady of the United States by her first name, or as" this woman or old lady. " Reading my post ,you see I am pretty fired up about them watching her about to "eat the pavement." That is the NASTIEST of all falls too. Pavement! Hard concrete!!
I meant by old lady, in that she is very elderly. Where was Nancy Reagon's assistant? Dirver? WHERR WAS HER SECRET SERVICE?????? THEY ARE SUPPOSED to be with her AT ALL TIMES AT HER SIDE ,FRONT and BACK AT ALL TIMES FOR TE REST OF HER LIFE!!!! You talk here about fighting terriosm, GOOD GOD, we cannot even protect a First LADY Nancy Reagon! BTW,I saw the full length pic of her and she had on white slacks, a red blouse, red clutch bag, and red ballet flats. Very nice.
Anyway, this is awful and I , personally , would not want to watch or think it is funny someone is watching any of the First or Second Ladies from Betty Ford-Roslyn Carter-NancyReagon-Barbra Bush-Hillary Clinton-Laura Bush or Lynne Cheney and the Second Lady's ,NONE OF them " eat the pavement!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These Secret Service men and women of NancyRegon's need to be reassigned to the mailrrom and retake some courses ASAP! These paps need some ,I do not know,but they need something good done to them. Harrassment ,a ticket ,something. Can you get them for like attempted assassination of First Lady Nancy Reagon?

19. I certainly had no love for Ronald Reagan and think of him every time a homeless bum who should be in a mental facility harrasses me for change on the street. Thanks, Mr. Regan, for opening the doors and dumping out these people.

Still, it's disrespectful for an elderly woman to be addressed by her first name. It's MRS. Reagan to you, bub. And why didn't she have someone right next to her - she is very frail.

She can certainly afford it to hire the help.

20. You can call Sarah Palin "Sarah." You can call Joe Biden "Joe." But please, draw the line somewhere, and "Mrs. Reagan" should have been a no-brainer. It reminded me of those twenty-something nurses at the hospital who talk to elderly people as if they are two-years-old, and use the patients' first names as if they are on the kindergarten playground.

21. It really amazes me that the secret service protection she has even allowed your camera man to get that close. And I would like to think the people protecting her wouldn't allow her to fall. Were they even in site? Good Lord, show some respect.

22. If Mrs. Reagan had fallen, she could have broken her hip or worse! A broken hip is dangerous anytime, but potentially fatal in an elderly person. I am very glad she did not fall but if she had, imo it would have all been this reporter's fault. He continued calling out his questions, even after Mrs. Reagan had left the safety of the handrail and he should have had sense enough to shut up and let her get the remaining short distance in safety and without distraction.

23. That's MRS. REAGAN you a$$holes! Show some respect for a former, very elderly and frail First Lady. I'm a Democrat, never cared for Reaganomics, however, I would have taken her arm, helped her to her car, and addressed her with the respect she deserves. I in fact did so with an elderly stranger at the grocery store yesterday, who was clearly unsteady with her cane.

Acrylics or tips??? How dare you talk to her like she was Britney or Paris?? Her Secret Service agent should be replaced immediately!

I don't expect comapssion from TMZ - and frankly don't plan to ever return to this site. MRS. REAGAN showed you far more kindness than you deserved.

24. She's old, of course she unsteady. She has managed to have another facelift since Ronnie's death. Doing very well for her age.

25. Class act MY FOOT. She turned a blind eye when her husband brought illegal drugs into this country via military,and she sat there and WATCHED!.Then she came out with that crappy Just Say No. So she is no Class Act, she is a CLASSIC CRIMINAL.

26. You all were So disrespectful to her. Granted she is a republican and that sucks, but she was still the first lady and should be called Mrs. Reagan. And you shouldn't be badgering her and asking what type of work she had done in the shop. Shes not Britteney Spears for christ's sake.

27. Well someone caught her thankfully so people weren't too far behind but you guys are right why weren't they right by her side? And the whole time I was thinking STFU and stop distracting her! The paps really will do anything for money, including let a old woman break her neck to get some info for TMZ! Pathetic! Money is the root of all evil. And I love Nancy Reagan!

28. It's unfortunate that caribou-moose killing and ignorant Palin doesn't have a quarter of the class of Mrs. Reagan!

29. I sent a post and didn't get put on, maybe I was too harsh about paps... What I was saying is that this was way too close to be near a former First Lady. Where on earth are the Secret Service? It is a disgrace to call her by her first name as any older person that you don't personally. As far as terrorism,mabye but hey what a shame on our nation if something happened to her? Because of a crazy person, or just not being well taken care of. No offense to the paps because I do love TMZ, but some off them seem a little "off" ;x I'm just sayin'

30. I agree with those who commented that Mrs. Reagan should be addressed as such. I'm a life long Democrat. I never have voted Republican. On another note, why is Mrs. Reagan going out to a nail salon? I would think she would have a personal manicurist up to the house in Bel-Air. Surely Betsy Bloomingdale must have the number of someone who makes housecalls. To say nothing of a red Town Car? I think the ex-First Lady is losing her touch. Basic black never goes out of style and matches everything.
