No, It Was Perfectly Clear

From The Clothes Have No Emperor, pg 38:

1/8/[1982]
The White House announces that President Reagan -- who often wonders why people think he's anti-civil rights -- has signed off on Ed Meese's plan to grant tax-exempt status to South Carolina's Bob Jones University and other schools that practice racial discrimination.

1/12/[1982]
President Reagan explains that there must have been some kind of "misunderstanding" regarding his efforts to grant tax exemptions to segregated schools, since he is "unalterably opposed to racial discrimination in any form."
