bump !

[MeekOneGOP]

That is great, Reagan on Rushmore !

Did you catch the CNN trailer saying Reagan only narrowly won 50.7% of the popular vote in 1980, but came back to win a landslide in 1984? Yeah, this is the same CNN who called Clinton's wins landslides, the biggest of which (1996) was 1% less of the narrow win of RR in 1980.

As far as I'm concerned, Congress should also mandate an issuance of a commemorative stamp by July 4 and a new coin by September 1. I like the dime because it is a two-fer-- replacing FDR and a symbolic coin which RR made worth something again.

[Paul Ross]

We'll win this next one for you, Gipper!

[Diva Betsy Ross]

Excellent Paul! BTTT! God bless President Reagan.

[GreenHornet]

It will be interesting to see who votes "no" to this kind of resolution...

On his 90th birthday, Congress passed a special resolution wishing Ronald Reagan a Happy Birthday. There were a couple of Rats who are so petty and shallow that they voted against the resolution.

No disrespect to President Reagan but the begining of this just jumped out at me !

Please Tell Congress: Pass A Joint

For some reason that just seems like something they would do everyday in the cloak room !

Please go to the FR Reagan Vigil thread and pledge to organize/attend a vigil for Ronald Reagan in your area!

[Paul Ross]

Oh Captain! My Captain!

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,

The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won,

The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,

While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;

But O heart! heart! heart!

O the bleeding drops of red,

Where on the deck my Captain lies,

Fallen cold and dead.

O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;

Rise up--for you the flag is flung--for you the bugle trills,

For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths--for you the shores a-crowding,

For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;

Here Captain! dear father!

This arm beneath your head!

It is some dream that on the deck,

You've fallen cold and dead.

My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,

My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will,

The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,

From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;

Exult O shores, and ring O bells!

But I with mournful tread,

Walk the deck my Captain lies,

Fallen cold and dead.

Walt Whitman (1819-1892)

bump to the greatest President I have ever seen!

[EQAndyBuzz]

A proclimation and resolution should be put in front of the house and senate for a vote.

No one in their right mind would vote against it. Except for Maxine Waters and the CBC.

[FastCoyote]

I'm sorry to rain on everyone's parade, but a resolution to "pass a joint" for the Gipper seems inappropriate.

[TBarnett34]

I had to read the title of the thread twice, myself :p
