No... I lost it when Lady Thatcher spoke, and again with Pres. Bush 41's and Pres. Bush 43's magnificent tributes. And that beautiful music...
The tributes by Lady Thatcher, Bush the Elder, and Bush the Younger show that there is much that Reagan's example can teach this nation.
I never, ever regained it. When the Irish Tenor began with Ava Maria, I knew a box of tissues wouldn't last the day. Not wanting to miss a beat, I stayed glued to the TV and never logged on. I was tempted to after hearing Ron's caustic comment and thought it might have been directed at GWB. After it was over, I was too exhausted from crying to log on. What a beautiful ceremony from start to finish. Will read the live thread to see what people's take was on bitter Ron. Perhaps I jumped to the wrong conclusion but I trust my instincts when my hair stands on end and all strands were erect.
