LIVE THREAD: Pres. Bush pays respects and calls on Mrs. Reagan

Posted on 06/10/2004 2:28:07 PM PDT by alisasny

Alot of dignataries are now showing up to pay respects. McCain, Guiliani, Gorby, Karzai, etc.

Cspan has live coverage. Bush expected at 7 but could be earlier? He is then going to visit with Mrs. Reagan.

Guard changes about every half hour at .28 and .58 of the hour. One is going on right now.

Damn, you're right. Laura will have to go through this personal hell someday. She's sad for Nancy this day, however.

I suspect that Bush will be buried in Midland when his time comes.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

No grandstanding, no annoucement they will pay their respects. No team of photographers. Class.

I think it was quick so he wouldn't "lose it" in front of the world.

They both looked terribly sad.

:-(

Oh, Mother did too. I feel certain she got one of the first editions of Nancy's book "My Turn." :)

Good point, he will get the same treatment. Imagine a future FNC running video of this moment as his "in state"

I think smoothing the flag was what Nancy did,,a loving gesture, like smoothing the bed covers of a sick person. It touches me no end. Pres Bush knows this is not "all about him",,he paid respects, respected those in line and went to see Nancy,,a real class man who knows how to behave. Laura did look very very sad.

Know what? He "failed" to milk the media moment.

I guaran Dam tee you that will be the buzz in the next few hours.

We need, no - we DEMAND - dramatic moments.

What we see, is W, simply being W.

Comfortable in his own skin.

And f*** the spinners.

Yep.
I agree.
He was ready to lose his composure.
I love him for that.
He shows his feelings.

Agreed. Nothing at all like the phony grieving of Kerry, pursed lips and all.

Be Seeing You,
