Ronald Reagan actually said...

"I also pray for the speedy recovery of Mrs. Palme."

"Olof Palme was one of the world's most respected leaders, a man who made compassion the hallmark of Swedish policy."

"My sorrow in the face of this senseless act of violence is profound."

"I offer my most sincere condolences to the family of Prime Minister Palme and to the Swedish people in their hour of grief."
