I paid attention because I am fascinated by the detail and precision and the participation. We have little in our society that matches it. I would say SOME exceptions were the funerals for John Kennnedy and Ronald Reagan.
We have little in our society that matches it for a very good reason. Don’t forget that all that hoopla was paid for by the taxpayers. I don’t like the Obama’s taking trips on taxpayer money, why would I be delighted with the royals?
