I don't think she intended it to be made public.

Don't know if it's true or not,but I'm damn glad an Impeached lowlife that would disgrace the "Peoples House" by dropping his pants was not allowed to speak at the the funeral of a Great President that never removed his coat in the Oval Office!

President Clinton stained the image of the Oval Office.

That's not all he stained!

President Nixon died in 1994. I'll never forget it; I took my two small ones to make the trek to Yorba Linda to pay our respects and we got caught in the most ferocious downpour - incredibly loud thunderstorm with wicked lightning - that I had ever experienced in all my years in California. We had to leave because the kids were freaking out and we were all soaking wet. Despite the rain, more than 50,000 hardly souls stood in line for hours just to file past the casket. Conservatives are pretty tough birds, as we have all seen this week.

Everyone says Clinton did a good job on Nixon's eulogy, but from what I've read, it was normal Clinton pap. Nothing about Nixon's successful assaults on Communism. Just the normal forgiveness crap. Sure it was flowery but nothing of substance. Nixon deserved better.

Clinton, so the story went, felt that the Reagan rites were being 'politicized' and he preferred the Nixon funeral 10 years ago in which both former Democratic and Republican presidents spoke.

I can understand lying about something which it will take DNA examinations to disprove, but why does he have to lie about something so easy to check.

She's right. He did. Funny how this hasn't been discussed in the press...they're all aflutter about how Nancy might campaign for embryonic stem cell research...

She did say that she was disappointed that, during the ceremonies, 'the Democrat perspective wasn't given.'

And did she lament that the 'Republican perspective' wasn't given at the Wellstone Carny Show, and that Cheney was specifically told not to show up?

I think not.

I am sure that if President Reagan had continued in good health in the years following his retirement he would have been absolutely heartbroken and disgusted at the way Clinton tarnished the Country, the Presidency, not to mention the Oval Office sink.

Whether or not this story is true makes no difference to me. The operative point is that he did NOT speak and was denied any chance of exploiting the tragic death of a true American hero.

I'll settle for that.

Irrefutable evidence that the Clintons do sleep together.

Get ready, folks.

The campaign to desecrate Nancy for Bill Clinton's gain is about to begin.

Nancy is vulnerable because no Ronny is here to defend her honor.

Either the reporter is lying, or Clinton is. The speakers at Nixon's funeral were Billy Graham, Henry Kissinger, Bob Dole, Pete Wilson, and the Douchebag. Not a Republican ex-president in the lot.

As President, Ronald Reagan made it a policy always to wear a suit and tie in the Oval Office.

And Slick couldn't be bothered to wear pants.

The absolute gall of the man is breathtaking. The speakers at the state funeral were Maggie Thatcher ( staunch ally ), Brian Mulroney ( staunch ally), President GH bush ( his veep) and GW Bush current president.

Just where does this disgraced, impeached, sleazeball think he fit in?

To have rapist speak at your husband's funeral merely BECAUSE he is Democrat IS politicizing the event.

Ah, maybe that explains the rudness of constantly closing their eyes as though sleeping or bored to tears.
