It was a great shot, wasn't it.
I just checked cspin's schedule - thought those who didn't have a chance to hear the President's speech this a.m., might have a chance later. I cannot believe they aren't showing it! Earlier today, they had the Underground Railroad and a couple of other items, here's the line-up for this evening (times are Eastern). I can see them showing the legacy of Ronald Regan, but the Legacy of Richard Daley on Independence Day???? Puullleeeeeeeease!
8pm - Legacy of Richard J. Daley
This event is a forum on the late Chicago Mayor, who served from 1955 until his death in 1976. It includes a speech by historian Michael Beschloss and a discussion on Mayor Daley's impact on national politics with Walter Mondale, Dan Rostenkowksi, and Adlai Stevenson III. The University of Illinois at Chicago hosts this forum.
10:20pm -
Legacy of Ronald Reagan
This panel includes journalist Fred Barnes, former Reagan Administration official Frank Donatelli, and author Craig Shirley. They speak about the impact of President Ronald Reagan, his campaigns, his presidency, and his leadership of the conservative movement.
Thanks for the info, I would like to see the Reagan Legacy, but Daley? Please, he was a crook.
This morning's CSPAN --- On America's birthday --- I wonder how many of these programs were patriotic in theme. The guest at was identified as an "anarchist." Why is this pertinent to Independence Day? /gnashing teeth>
Why is President Bush's appearance NOT acceptable? The House is not in session, which is CSPANs usual excuse.
