A great tribute by a great lady!
We are blessed, indeed, to have lived during the lifetimes of such giants of history as Lady Thatcher and President Reagan.

Probably one of the greatest women who ever lived. No wonder she was Reagan's friend. Historians will credit Reagan, Thatcher and the Pope with turning the tide on communism's world domination ambitions. Reagan led, but he had help.

Strokes. Amazing. She showed no outward signs that I noticed. Her gait was steady and her face seemed normal. Thanks for explaining it to me.
What a gutsy lady to risk coming to the ceremony.

She was a biochemist from Oxford University before being a statesman.
Unbelievable lady. How fatiguing it must have been to come all this way for the funeral. How generous of her.
Very bittersweet eulogy. Chokes me up.
This whole week has been a very sad one for all of us. My wife walks around with red eyes after watching the tube.
God keep Ronald Reagan, and help our country renew itself again as it did when he was our President.
It can happen!

Headline writer for AP needs to be taken to the woodshed. Baroness Margaret Thatcher called RWR the Great Liberator.
Yes, he did not shrink from denouncing Moscow's "evil empire." But he realised that a man of goodwill might nonetheless emerge from within its dark corridors.
So the President resisted Soviet expansion and pressed down on Soviet weakness at every point until the day came when communism began to collapse beneath the combined weight of these pressures and its own failures. And when a man of goodwill did emerge from the ruins, President Reagan stepped forward to shake his hand and to offer sincere cooperation.
How do you get "Reagan Won the Cold War by Turning Enemies into Friends?
