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.

The photo wires are pretty fast today, only about 20 min lead time

Pretty amazing. I thought maybe you'd managed to get some type of cell phone camera in & took the pixs yourself ;-)

Got a VCR? I'm taping at home just in case the cable goes out or something at work and I can't get to the TV.

Do you know what scares me about Clinton's funeral? I'm afraid that he'll request to be buried at Arlington.

What an awful thought, but it wouldn't surprise me at all.

Marine Cpl. James Wright, who received the Bronze Star Medal with valor device from Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz, salutes .... Wright lost both hands and suffered severe damage to his leg when his vehicle was struck by an enemy rocket-propelled grenade in Iraq's Anbar province. Despite his wounds, Wright continued to lead the Marines in his charge.

Just think if he had suffered three paper cuts - a Silver Star for sure.

The photo posted of this wonderful young man made me gasp. We have soldiers of whom we can - and should - be proud.

No offense, but you just ruined the entire thread with that picture.

And who in hell would applaud Kerry and McAuliffe?

Nah, Clinton wants to have his funeral before his death so he can be there to see it.

There is a thread that has been starting stating that the Reagan family is asking for church bells to be tolled along with the National Cathedral's tomorrow, at approx 1:15 Eastern. 40 times for the 40th President.

A woman called in to Joe Scarborough's program last night. She said when she told her little boy President Reagan died he asked, "Is he in heaven now mommie?". She then told him about the boots in the stirups. He said "Angels don't wear boots do they?".

Yup, you missed President Bush. He and Laura looked quite emotional.

That's disgusting. Is that what happened in front of the Capitol today? With big sh**-eating grins and actually accepting applause from the crowd? They must have been Dem congressional staffers lined up waiting for him.

They are letting the room fill up again. This better not be for Kerry but rather a former PResident from either party.

To Margaret Thatcher I say, "Thank you. Thank you for being such a loyal and loving friend of the Reagans. I know I speak for many...your choice to attend these services means the world to many of us; as it would have meant the world to our former President."

OMG!
Nearing a metro record?
This is wonderful.
Thanks for the info.
I know you're taking the day off,
and you will be sorely missed.

Is Kerry stalking Reagan?
