That's what I was thinking! Kerry wanted to be there to welcome Mrs. Reagan when she departs the plane.

I heard last night on Biography that the Queen of England knighted him. So would it be "Sir President Ronald Wilson Reagan" or "President Sir Ronald Wilson Reagan"?
Or is it inappropriate to mention the two titles together?

my brain is not functioning this week. Sheesh - me either. If I were my boss, I'd fire me! LOL
Boy, I'm so glad I work for my dad, a 74 yr old Korean war vet (Marine). We would catch each other with tears and sniffles all week long while watching our office tv. And we just go about our work, making mistakes and just ignoring them :)
I will never forget the emotions we have shared this week, mourning together over losing Pres Reagan.
C-SPAN. Good microphone. No commentary. Highly recommended.

CSPAN just promised NO COMMENTARY coverage! The CBS webcam is also free of talkingheads. And I heard today around the same time that two of the talkingheads were saying there's 'too much coverage.' *(sure, now that you've in effect been asked to quit making your idiotic comments about him during the funeral)*

I have no idea! That's something for the researchers.
Cannot believe they have Kondrake flapping his jaws on Fox now!
