LIVE THREAD--Reagan State Funeral Ceremony: Lying in State at the Rotunda (6/11/04)

[ambrose]

Just don't want to hear a rambling speech full of "Ummmm, Ummmm"... this is Reagan...

[longtermmemmory]

Only the immediat country was invited...


more like immediate planet.

I missed it on this thread, but is a representative of France missing??

Don't think so. A former President (during the 80s) and current foreign minister should be there.

I am sitting here about 50 miles from where Ronald W. Reagan was born, and I can not believe how emotional I am, and how very much I've missed this great man these past 10 years.

Because Fox is doing so well, I switched my recorder to them from Cspan

[RedMonqey]

A gentle rain falling on Washington..... Tears from Heaven, welcoming home one of its' servants....

[twigs]

I heard one of Reagan's speech writers say that the President should show some humor in his speech today as a tribute to the late president because of his well-known humor.

This is a NATIONAL service..it's protocol...the Wellstone mess was a private affair, which the DEMS turned into a freak show.

[longtermmemmory]

if this were the arab funeral you refer, the deceased would get up and run away on their own power. That would terrify the libs.

[Not A Snowbird]

When this is over, Nancy will probably sleep for a week.

[TenthAmendmentChampion]

Hail to the Chief. Tears again...

[prairiebreeze]

Hail to the Chief.

[Mo1]

Band Playing Hail to the Chief

[Terriergal]

Anyone else noticing Nancy keeps telling the umbrella guard to get closer to her?

[Spirited]

I hope those who pray are asking for a softening of her heart toward him and his family. They were part of her husband, after all.

[conservative in nyc]

Hail to the Chief. Casket going in.

[Jewels1091]

Nope...they talked aboput this last night....France SENT no representative. The retired people that are there, are there on their OWN.

[mombonn]

Hail to the Chief again. Here come the tears again. Prayer for Nancy.

[Maven]

I took today off work, so I could stay home and watch the funeral. However, yesterday I wore red from head to toe.

Bless her heart.
