Thanks for looking. Me & my late first wife moved heaven and earth to get Mr. Reagan elected. We really did fear Carter was ruining America.
I knew we'd lose him, but saying goodbye is never easy.
Pleasant journey, Mr. President, and thanks, from a grateful American.

"Even the liberals among them were standing in awe of the staggering numbers around them"
Interesting! Here they thought they had denegrated Reagan to the point nobody even thought about him anymore, but Reagan gets the last laugh! How appropriate.

"Ronald Reagan always talked about his beloved 'shining city on a hill,'" said Bob Just, a veteran talk-show host and WorldNetDaily columnist. "So, let's shine our headlights from now until Independence Day. Let's give Ronald Reagan one more July 4th with the people who love him."

Most remember Reagan in a patriotic sense. You might not have agreed with him all the time, but, you knew he had our nations best interest at heart.
He was not a Republican President, he was an American President.

It Really really hit me hard when they put the Coffin on the Caisson today. I told my wife that he's really been gone a while out of the public eye but it was nice to know that he was still around and alive, but death is so final, I'm think back to my younger days and what a giant that man was in my life, how proud he made me feel to be an American. I was 12 in 1980 and remember how he brought us out of the dismal days of inflation and Carter. His demeanor just made you believe things would be better. God I miss the man so...
"New generations of Russians will remember Ronald Reagan as a superman who advanced the establishment of democracy in their countries. "
I think that Reagan has assumed folk hero status, as he was perceived by some in Russia during his lifetime. The Left did this with Roosevelt, thanks to Woody Guthrie, the Almanac Singers and others. But Reagan's appeal really has been to ordinary Americans, unlike various varieties of Marxists pretending to be "of the people" as they believe themselves the annointed Party elite, the "vanguard."

President Reagan chats with British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher during State Arrival Ceremonies in this Feb. 26, 1981, file photo at the White House. Ronald Reagan (news - web sites), the cheerful crusader who devoted his presidency to winning the Cold War, trying to scale back government and making people believe it was ``morning again in America,'' died Saturday, June 5, 2004, after a long twilight struggle with Alzheimer's disease (news - web sites). He was 93. (AP Photo/File)

So in other words it's hard to manufacture lies and phantom scandals in Iraq when the greatest President of the 20th century has died.
