Hollywood sources tell LA Weekly columnist Nikki Finke that former President Ronald Reagan's medical condition has suddenly worsened. "He really took a downslide today," the insider told Finke Friday evening. "Doctors are at the house. Things aren't good." At the start of the day, several news organizations chased down a rumor that the ex-president had died, but it wasn't true... Family members gathered at the Reagan's Bel Air home late Friday... Developing...
God bless the finest president America has ever known.
I remember that furor so well. The media really worked themselves up over it.
GReat pic, again, thanks...bumping for all to see..we will not soon see two men such as these..
Yeah every few months I hearing off Sunday UK Papers about Poor Maggie
You realize that Maggie was one of few world leaders who got invitated to not only WH but also Reagan personal Ranch in Santra Barbara
I got this scary feeling that Clintons would crash the funeral OH GOD I hope NOT
What can I say except THANK YOU!
"If it were anyone but DU it would be hard to believe anyone could be that cynical hateful"
There. Fixed that for you.
Hope Thatcher will be invited to give a eulogy. Would only be fitting and appropriate.
Prayers to the Reagans, and a moment of silence for Ronaldus Magnus.
In an emotional gesture of reconciliation, President Reagan and Chancellor Helmut Kohl recalled the most monstrous acts of World War II Sunday and told citizens of the United States and West German "the horror cannot outlast the hope."
Rackkk that idea
Alright go for it FR Administrator
I would't mind seeing photos of Ronnie early days Hollywood days party with Rat Pack hang out with Bill Holden
THOSE PICTURES
Excellent idea.
Thanks for the link...another question..in releasing the news of Reagan's declining health, and saying it could be weeks or months, I suspect that it will be much sooner, and the family is trying to prepare the country..Do you think that Ronnie might enjoy a last "joke"..that is, departing this world just as the Democrat convention starts?..
thank you for the information, I will be one of many who will be going to Washington to pay my last respects, perhaps we should have a Free Republic meeting place/vigil for the 72 hours somewhere on the Mall?
Just something to think about, we could have a big picture of Ronnie and a card for people to sign and we could give out a page of his greatest quotes to the other mourners.
Thanks. I like the idea too.
Our tears at his passing will be for ourselves....that we no longer have him w/us. Our prayers for his family, friends, and the nation should be ones of thanks to Almighty God that he was here for awhile. I have no doubt that he will be w/God and at peace when he leaves us.
Superb pic, Martin -- a fitting tribute to the 'Gipper!
Well, I think it's much much sooner than weeks or months that it will come to pass.
Just now on msnbc, they reported a doctor was called to the house.
They're just probably giving the family private time, so that they're not swamped now with gaggles of newshounds bothering them.
Patience...Responsibility...Values

Went over to DU and saw exactly what I expected. Their so called "compassion" on display for all to see. These people are truly the enemies of America.
