LeBoutillier: Unlike Hillary, Reagan Stopped for Injured Cop For the story behind the story... Former New York Congressman John LeBoutillier noted this week there's a big difference between the way President Reagan reacted when a police officer in his entourage was injured, and the treatment accorded to Westchester County cop Ernest Dymond by Sen. Hillary Clinton. Officer Dymond was hurt on Oct. 14 when a van carrying Sen. Clinton blew past an airport security checkpoint. The injuries sent him to the emergency room and more than a month later he remains unable to return to work. (See Hillary's Car Mistaken for Terrorist Vehicle.) But the sidelined cop hasn't received so much as a call of concern, let alone an apology, from the nation's most-famous elected Democrat. In fact, after the accident, the former first lady didn't even bother to get out of her vehicle and check on how badly it had injured Officer Dymond, according to witnesses. "When Ronald Reagan was president, he was once in a motorcade where two motorcycle cops collided and were injured," LeBoutillier tells this week's National Enquirer in a front page report headlined "Hillary Mows Down Cop." "Reagan got out and stood comforting them until the ambulance came," he recalls. "If a president can do that, why can't a junior senator at least stop and ask how this cop was doing after she nearly ran him down," fumed the former congressman, who was elected in the Reagan landslide of 1980. newsmax.com tom watson tosiwmee
