first time I've ever heard such a thing. Did she read about it in Pravda, hear about it on Radio Havana, or was she peekin' in a Hustler magazine when no one was looking?

Re: Is this true?

Your answer ?

"Only a liberal socialist could view the biggest problem of the last half of the last century, the failing USSR, and see the problem as being their fellow Americans in a thriving U.S. industry."

After you say this insist, no, no, *demand* that he use the phrase "Military Industrial Complex", and when he does so, without skipping a beat, shout out that he's a throw back to what was worst in America in the late 60s, rehashing retreaded tripe as old as Marx himself.

That's your answer.

Thanks Howlin! My friend is really a good guy (if a little idealistic). He still believes that people can live together unselfishly and share the wealth. I'm too much of a realist to believe such stuff. Give everyone an equal share of everything and it won't take long for the "doers" to get back what they lost and the non-doers to lose what they are given. :)

I stopped in a bank in the center of our little town this afternoon and asked them why their flag had not been lowered. They scurried right out to take care of it.

I made three or four phone calls to places I noticed. All said, they did not know.

I believe that they did not.

That is sad.

Dear, please look at it this way: your presence makes us the privileged witnesses of the only time a liberal actually got it right. :o)

I'm only keeping it on because Hannity said that they will air an interview with Michael Reagan (taped previously).

When I watched the replay on CSPAN this evening, I saw a particularly sad moment that I didn't see on Fox earlier. After the rest of the family had moved away from the casket, Michael came back to it and spent several minutes alone, with his dad.

I'm just so thankful that this great family shared him with us. I can't imagine how hard this week will be for them.

Why is it that we have to wait till Reagan died to recall how marvelous his career and Presidency was?

Hey, show some respect - he was president for awhile - while Reagan was in surgery, V.P. Bush was overseas, Speaker of the house was somewhere(?). ;-)

I wonder if he's "Deepthroat".

Both Patty & Ron are Liberals.
Ron constantly says hateful things
about the President. But I think
the family situations & logistics
determined who rode with whom.

Michael has a wife & 2 kids. They
had their car. Patty & Ron had no
others with them. Plus, Michael is
not Nancy's kid. Patty & Ron are.

It seems reasonable to me.

That isn't true. If it were the MSM would still be harping about it. Even after he left office and before his diagnosis they were still eager to slam him if they got a half a chance.

At least he's not Walter Pincus. Does Fox have someone who just intentionally calls dinosaurs hostile to Reagan for comment or do these jokers call up and volunteer just to get their mug on TV so people won't forget who the heck they are?

I once had to call the downtown Nashville public library when the US flag was flying at half staff and tell them that the Tennessee flag should not be flown at full staff beside it. They acted very puzzled, but soon after someone came out and lowered the Tennessee flag. You would think that government paid library workers would know the rules.

We're all eager to hear your impressions of your visit to the Reagan Library today. Are you just going to post that graphic and not share the details with us ?

He was a famous actor and later became president of SAG and most of his friends were entertainers. If you'll note, Ron was is last one to pass.
