Kerry wanted to be there to welcome Mrs. Reagan when she departs the plane.

What I wouldn't give to see her initial reaction if that happened.

I agree. Fox is just blathering today. Making my head hurt. MSNBC is doing a far better job. IMHO.

CBS webfeed has NO banners and NO talking heads. Sometimes the pix are a bit muddled, but now they seem very clear.

MSNBC has the smallest graphic and gives the best picture it looks like. Fox has been doing a split screen at times so we can see Brit or Kondrake (like I care!)

I am so used to tuning out what those lines say--but you're right.

I say MSNBC has been the best so far.

Nancy arrives safely at the bottom of the staircase.

It sure does sound like he was killed on the battlefield. Amazing and disgusting!

Just more proof that the mainstream media is the mediocre media. They have no clue about the real meaning of words anymore.

That's exactly what I did -- C-SPAN is much better.
