I'd wager that Ford will forego a state funeral in DC..I thnk he'd want to avoid the inevitable comparisons to Reagan's..

I agree. Neither Ford nor Carter will do it, though Clinton, as a two-termer, probably will. Hopefully, whenever that happens, we'll all show the same class we're hoping the Dems will show now.

I thought about that after reading the posts regarding the "good time" they were having over at DUmmies, and knew that we have far too much class to carry on in that manner. Even if the majority of conservatives would not feel any sense of sadness when Clinton passes, they would not express it, and would instead offer the respectful condolences to those who would mourn his passing. That is the stark contrast between them and us, the knowledge to know when to behave, to act as an adult, and not to continue to act like a child.
