just reminded the world of the SHAMEFUL administration of Jimmy Carter, and how Reagan pulled us out of that "malaise".

Resting on the same support that held Linolns' casket.Maybe it's sagging under the weight of having to support two great men.

Michael was at the RWR library visitation. He just was there at a different time than Nancy. Saw footage of him arriving with his wife. Looked broken up but brave.

Nancy breaks my heart. She's not going to know what to do with herself after this is over.

I could not be more pleased with this guy speaking.

I was afraid we'd hear generalized platitudes. Of course, the leftists will complain it was a partisan memorial.
