Do you want the Funeral on Friday? I'm assuming so.
If not, I'll may this out tomorrow. I got the coverage earlier today. Would you like that? Just give me what you want and we'll work from there.
"She looks a bit 'unemotional' yes."
After the long illness, she has nothing left. Trust me, I know. I watched my father slowly die from cancer over a 6 year period. My mother looked exactly the same way.
Remember with ambivalence.
juuuuuust vaugue enough.
Seperated at birth --
Definitely myself--I kind of said good bye to him 10 years ago but this is just so sad. We could have used his guidance and quiet confidence in our country during the Clinton years.
Cheney's delivery is very soothing.
Who's not??? Oh well.
I loved that statement...
welcome to FreeRepublic!
Cheney's eulogy is wonderful!
>>Rush's comments about Clinton not planning his funeral yet -- how difficult can it be to get together a few chicks and a kegger!?
You forgot diggin' the hole out back of the doublewide, right next to the septic tank...
Thank you - it's an honor to be here to honor this great man with the most patriotic Americans anywhere.
as much as we won't like it, Clinton will have a similar funeral.
Abuse....Abuse...
He's laying low... serving tea to his employers, the Addams'.
I second the nomination of Cheney for '08.
"Ronald reagan was a providential man..."
I love this. :-)
Because the first speaker mentioned that the country was in a great malaise you think it was partisan?
Hmmm - you didn't listen to the Wellstone service did you? That was partisan.
To mention that the country was under a great malaise before President Reagan took office is a great understatement and so non-political it's laughable that anyone would think it was.
He could have reminded listeners about the double digit inflation. Interest rates approaching 20%. Gas could only be purchased every other day. The list is a long one.
But he didn't do that. He chose a rather gentle term to describe the absolutely horrific condition the country was in.
We will have to agree to disagree but I think you are 100% wrong to think it was a political or partisan speech.
Using Peer to Peer you could distribute it more efficiently.
Just a thought.
