Somehow I feel that Ronnie is looking down and watching.

I'd say so. He wants to see those flags rustling in the scant breeze and hear the Battle Hymn once more.

WHO in the military will WANT to be a part of Clinton's ending?

I saw Ron and Patti looking UP in the Rotunda....like it was the first time they'd ever noticed what was on the ceiling.

WHOA, I just had the same thought about Ron Reagan. He should have had as much awe for his beloved father as he seems to have for the Rotunda. JMO, of course.

CBS has decided to talk til they bleed to drown out the sound of ceremony. They are weak men. I challenge you Rather..to a duel.

Ron Reagan Jr needs to have his face slapped for acting like hes acting in the rotunda- smiling and looking around like a 5th grader on field trip!

Such compassion and love for a man who just lost his father.

There won't be military at Clinton's. There will be showgirls instead.
